This unofficial thread contains mainly features what have been in game earlier, but have been removed for some reason and not reintroduced on later date. This list may also contain high priority items which have been promised (but not delivered) earlier. Other random entries are possible if enough reasoning exists.
This list is maintained by author and he may use very selfish and biased selection procedure to pick up more items to the list from the replies in this thread. The goal is to keep the list very clear on item specific level and gather them all to one place. Global entries such as "add WIS as promised" will not make the cut. Reasoning why each item is in list will not be provided - it should be clear enough without the explanation.
Feel free to contribute and/or comment. Hate mail is as welcome as the positive one.
Current unofficial task list:
Neocom - Add narrow task bar to bottom of the screen where you can minimize windows so that their labels remain visible. -> It is also extremely important that minimized chat labels have user count visible and that minimized labels blink when there is activity. - Make "chat"-button optional. - Modify blink so that it activates on event, blinks couple times and leaves icon highlighted. Make it re-blink after each new event. - Add notification blink to "contract"-button. - Add notification blink to "journal"-button. - Move "items" and "ships"-icons away from undock button and left people to customize their order/location. - Remove random useless junk which is appearing to neocom bar when doing invention, opening cargo containers and so on. - Add character name to neocom to make it easier to multi-box and quickly tell which client you're using. - Add date to the clock. - Add shortcut icon for compare tool.
Keyboard shortcuts and overview locking - Add option to enable/disable shortcut key applying to "preselected overview item". -> when enabled lock the overview when mouse is over the overview window. - Add option to enable/disable activated shortcut key applying to "clicked overview item". -> when enabled lock the overview when any shortcut key is held down. - Add shortcut option for compare tool.
In space controls - Add option to enable/disable automatically approach object on open cargo feature.
Misc UI - Fix copy pasting ISK amounts to ISK input box. It stopped working during "," "." decimal divider update. - Stop to random setting resets after patches. Usually related to window positions / tab widths.
Forums - Fix forum BBcode parse error which percent signs may cause. - Allow us to post images and use signature images. - Fix signature editing tool. - Add support function to assembly hall. - Fix session time out which frequently eats (usually time consuming and well written) posts. - Add more customization options to forum layout. Option to disable side borders and background image is minimum demand to increase usability.

Top priority:
Fix caps / titans, null resource distribution, sov warfare, war decs. Make the next expansion bigger than Apocrypha.
Do this and EvE will be like new. Null will burn. Wars will be fierce. Everyone profits.

This is a fantastic idea, hope this thread doesn't get logged, I'll post my stuff here, lets list everything the players want! I'll put in my stuff, bold is the most important
. Colour/Logo/Paint customisation for ships
. Far more player interaction in the game whether it's mining or combat
. Give far more players access to blueprint copying
. Lock UI option so it won't get dragged around too easily
. Some sort of simple objective notification on the HUD so we don't have to bring up the journal
. Gameplay content that isn't just a load of massive timesinks, missions shouldn't last 1 - 2 hours
. Legalise botting or stomp it out entirely, a decision needs to be made
. Destroy the Nex Store BURN IT ALL!
. End the CSM as it has clearly turned into something that is purely designed to benefit certain alliances and only they understand the system properly enough to utilize it, CCP should be listening to everyone equally not just a select few special interests
. Go back to the drawing board with captain's quarters and don't come back until you have the full thing
. Don't add more tiers/techs in your equipment and ships, focus on making the game more balanced
. More anti-blob options that benefit solo or small gangs
. Make mining barges worthwhile especially Exhumers
. Exploration content is one of the few things working in this game! Make more of it! You have tons of empty space being unused
. If Dust 514 is absolutely not coming to PC then please make an alternative version for EVE players as an expansion, I think ship boarding and station combat would be a fantastic idea

This is the most vital fix that CCP needs to instigate.
http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Exotic_Dancers As you can see, an exotic dancer has a volume of 1m^3 and a mass of 50kg. That's fine
But look at this! http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Group_Of_Exotic_Dancers http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Large_Group_Of_Exotic_Dancers
A large group of exotic dancers has a volume of 400m^3, but a mass of 400,000kg?! That's 1 metric ton per dancer assuming that there are 400 dancers in a group, as would be the case if they were all 1m^3 dancers herded together into a pen, which is how they should be transported
I know we've all had that one fat girl that we had a good time with but didn't want to tell our friends about, but if your dancers are going to weigh 1 metric ton each they should at least occupy more space. I don't know what the average mass density of the human body is but I know that 1 metric ton per cubic meter is too much.
So CCP, sovereignty and super-capitals can wait (weight, heh) you need to fix this glaring and pressing issue. |

Sov -Remove three of the four timers that need to be grinded when taking a system and nerf stucture hp with 66.82%. -> Stop the sov grind where the hostiles come on the last timer and save the system forcing the attackers to start over. -If a SBU (doesn't matter how many) are onlined in a system the sov level index thingy stop ticking and all ihub upgrades are disabled. -> Slight nerf to "defensive SBUs" - Concider removing "system is vulnerable" notifications making it possible to ninja claim those systems that never are used and owned by that giant blob.
UI - Redo the entire overview setting window, it's plain out broken and extremely unintuitive. - Redo the market window, especially the group page for all modules of the same type. -> Instead of them all thrown together in a pile they should be sorted by meta level and somehow it need to be made clearer that there are 5 different variations of one gun instead of 15 different guns like noobs believe atm. For example by grouping them together better. + Mega Beam Laser I - Mega Afocal Maser I - Mega Modal Laser I etc.
Misc. - Change the backgrounds of the ship preview window so that instead of the generic blue-green nebulae the new ones are there instead and each race has it's own nebulae background -> Similar to how it looks in the spaceship preview on eveonline.com

Valei Khurelem wrote:...lets list everything the players want!... Lets not... there is ideas and suggestions forums for those + the little things thread. Try to stick in features which are either broken, need to be updated because of some magic reason or have vanished from the game. If some totally new "item" makes it way to the list, it has to be really neutral thing what would benefit most players on their daily tasks somehow.
Players want plenty of stuff, but they rarely agree about the things they want. This is why I try to keep my "own" wishes away from the list also and focus on the obvious flaws and issues. The fixes and changes have to be clear and if something divides people to 2 opposite camps, it probably doesn't belong here.
Getting old functionality back is the priority. If there is something what can be done to make it even better - that is extra.

I as well +1 bars at the bottom of the window for minimized windows. And if could they blink and few and highlight when a new event happens, that would be great.

You shouldn't even joke about such things!
What CCP should do on the other hand is this: - Make cloths craftable from PI or some sh!t. - Refund all the aurum spendt. - Link the nex store to the EVE store.
This way they aurum/plex would work as a digital gitcard. If I could buy PLEXes, convert them to aurum and buy a real life rifter model, the nex store would go from terrible to amazing!
And before you go all "ccp wont give fr33 stoff lol u nob!", remember that the only way PLEXes are injected into the game is by paying real money or klling and looting cockraches.
Advantages: - Nex would go from something hated to something amazing. - I am sure the demand for PLEX would go up. - CCP could sell the things from the EVE store overpriced. - Easy fix for the "what will happend to nex/aur" problem. - People would (hopefully) be happy while CCP can keep their extra income. - Increased use/awareness of the EVE store
Disadvantages: - Legal issues? - Shipping issues? |

This is brilliant
But I don't think NEX store has anything wrong, just keep both of them |

Could you enlighten me about the "widescreen" mode. Tried to find information but didn't quite get to bottom of it. Screenshot and/or extra info about what has been changed when it was "removed" would be nice.
Nebula blindness I understand as item without drop shadow not being very visible against bright background. Can't really combine that to wide screen issues in my mind? How are these related?

Ok thx... after reading this thread I get a feeling that this is more or less issue with some bright nebulas than issue with missing black bars. Reintroducing black bars would certainly fix the problem from areas where the bars are, but leave the other areas as they are. This would clearly be solution for some, but is it the optimal one?
Before adding the item to list I would like to hear some additional suggestions and comments about the issue and nebula blindness. Are those nebulas which are too bright limited to certain few and/or what would be the best methods to fix or get around the issues? Are the black bars necessary if such method can be found? Should some UI items be less transparent or have some static backdrop? Is this problem appearing only with certain colours? If black bars would be reintroduced, what additional measures should be taken to fix other areas of the issue?
Personally I think that simple solution lays in adding some drop shadow or similar to white fonts, which seem to vanish to some nebulas rather well. My opinion however relies pretty heavily to these 2 screen shots you people had posted to that thread. Specially the text under target labels on 2nd example becomes rather unreadable as it is. Example 1 - Example 2.

Forums are full with real good ideas. I support this.
The reality is: CCP can't deliver at a constant pace. They introduce something new, something else get broken. In the end they'll destroy the universe, I wonder who gets their stuff? Eve community: An angry mob of bright people hunting witches, more torches, more hay forks, growing and growing. |

There has been some recent changes to overview locking system but I see those fixes inadequate as final solution.
Only known true and proper solution is as explained in todo list. It does require coordination between keyboard shortcut team and overview UI team, but it shouldn't be reason not to fix it properly.
Besides plenty of people have been complaining about shortcut key behaviour long before overview locking problem even existed. If it was fixed way back then already, most likely we didn't have the issues we have at the moment.
Will leave the items there up to the point they are fixed or other as good truly working solution has been found.

- make custom non-Fx/ctrl/alt shortcuts work when in some kind of window which is NOT a text input box. now if you clicked bookmark for example, you need to click out in space in order to use number/letter key shortcuts. this really sucks when you bound mid/low slots to 1-8 q-i keys which is a kind of logical thing to do. |

Obvious visual things that need to be done eventually:
- V3 all the ships (now in the works) - Visible missile launchers (now in the works) - Customizable ships (now in the works) - Visible ship damage - Better ship deaths (gradual deaths for larger ships instead of SUDDEN EXISTENCE FAILURE, combine with above for massive immersion boon) - Ship-specific wrecks (instead of the generic unidentifiable masses we currently get) - Random hit locations (instead of hitting the same spot over, and over, and over, and over...)
Pipe dream: VISIBLE CREW MEMBERS. I want to see those buggers spilling out into space! Also, escape pods. Yeah, this ain't happenin' any time soon...
Anyways, I think if all of the above were accomplished, even the boring monotony of ratting could become a glorious spectacle as you behold your ship chipping away or catastrophically damaging enemy ships without looking at health bars, allowing you to witness the carnage as their hull is breached, sending hapless crew members spilling out into the void of space, doomed to die of exposure to vacuum, if not from the inevitable explosion of the ship itself.
I'd also love to be able to one day breach enemy communications and listen in as they scream in frustration and agony as my ship bores its way into their hull. As their fleets whittle down towards nothing, I would smile as I hear the remaining forces growing increasingly panicked as they realize their chances of survival have become equivalent to null and void.
As it is, however, the act of blowing up battleships is such a boring, pedestrian affair, with none of the humanity that an actual space battle would entail, as there are so many elements that would make it much clearer that you are decimating and slaughtering hundreds or thousands of people with every turret blast.
But I digress. This is kind of outside the scope of this thread, I know... |

There is a solution for this already. Custom set the UI colors via the options menu so each character has a different color scheme. It's not the perfect solution, but it does work.
