Shiny explosions and glossy models can somewhat detract from the depth and enjoyment of this game (not to mention the resource strain by the software itself). So it would be a nice addition to have a Reduced Classic client with stripped down, minimalist graphics. Wireframe would be nice, but we can settle for a bit more :)
It would be almost no effort on the part of CCP (eliminate some textures, graphical effects, etc) and would provide a genuine increase in performance and reliability for the client.
What do you say?

I hope you don't whine about lag, when there was no chance of CCP raising prices (a year or so a go) everyone was like "Ill pay a few extra $'s to support new hardware"
Now..

Honestly, if you're having trouble running the classic client it's definitely time to upgrade.
If you don't have enough money to upgrade but want to keep paying to play, then you should probably have other priorities in life that don't include internet spaceships. IE: things that require less money.

I say maybe your Amiga needs a bit of an upgrade if you can't run classic with all the graphics ticked off.

And now instead of paying $30 (which I could barely afford to begin with) for two accounts I now have to pay $69. Yes I get to play twice as long but now I can't even afford one of my accounts.

If you're that poor sell one char and live off ISK-bought GTCs.

The point of this thread was not about the GTCs (for that, there is already a thread), rather that we can get more with less with either a low-end but fast client, or more options on the classic client. Lag is and will always be a part of Eve. Even if recent computers can cope with classic fairly well, a stripped-down client would run even faster.
It won't be for everybody, but in places where lag matters more (i.e. large fleet battles) and where tiny overview settings make a difference, the ability to curtail some graphical features will also make a difference.
Not a whine, a suggestion.

Actually, not true. The price of the US Dollar has gone DOWN to previously unthinkable levels

Some sort of reduced gfx version for fleet battles would be sweet :P

lol, this is the wrong way to tackle a problem, if you can't run classic graphics then you shouldn't request they make wireframes...upgrade. Most people don't like down-grades, I personally play with premium graphics, so I wouldn't dream of touching wire-frame mode.

Hmm. well after thinking about it for a bit I guess CCP could have an option to have the ship models be replaced with a tactical icon. That should be well within both clients capability to achive with minimal effort on the coders part.
It would be something similar to this only much more varied. If you have ever played Homeworld then you will have a good idea of what they would look like. Tbh i think it would be a great addition as you could recognize ship types simply from the overview or space based icons and greatly simplify target selection. Plus with no ships to render it would mean that fleet size would not be a limiting factor on client side lag.

I am sure your system can't be worse than mine, but if you are having troubles with the Classic Client have you tried hitting "Esc" key and changning your graphic settings? I mean remove all of the neat pretty stuff they give you to use. ________________________

You haven't lived until you've.. err.. died in Eve.
Posted about this 4 years ago hoping for an 'elite' version with wireframes... they won't do it I'm afraid and hacking your textures would break the EULA/etc.

On the contrary; my 060 is overclocked to 80 MHz, and I can't push my Cybervision PPC any more either.
