Ok here goes nothing,
I have been playing this game for 4 years with 2 accounts and been fairly satisfied with it so far but this new patch quite clearly is rubbish. It seems CCP have sugar coated the game to look better for any new player but what about those existing customers that quite clearly aren't very happy?
I have read all these forum posts and most have issues with what has been done. I guess most like me just want to play this damn game without bugs, lag etc and don't really care for shiny things on our ships, unless u docked and spinning your ship that is.
I have a high spec gaming PC and with the premier gfx now in place i cant even undock. I have also turned all the effects off in the hope it works better but then i ask myself, why have it in the first place if i have to disable it?
I understand there is always lag and issues after a new patch but surely we should be given an option to roll back to a previous version if we don't like this one?
IMO the bad points far outweigh the good points i.e. a very confusing fitting screen and the new onboard scanner which now u cant right click a ship u have just scanned down to find out what class it is.
I live in hope that CCP read all these mails and switches back to the old client which was much smoother and better all round for the serious gamer that just wants to log in and play.

Bring back the old sound levels/channels.
I feel that I'm going deaf or have my head in a Fish Tank.
Zoom to about 6000m away from your own ship and sounds disappear altogether. Might as well unplug your own speakers.
There also seems to be Less sound channels as sometimes when I get multiple hit by missiles or other weapons there is no hit/explosion sounds.
Graphics yes its great.  Sound it seems like a downgrade.

Legend of a release, graphically very aesthetically pleasing. I personally really like the cloaking, warping and jumping effects. I also like how the client now utilises graphics, even with everything up full it is around 256 FPS in space with 10 or so ships in view.
One downside is the sound volume, the differential between space and docked is way out. Sound has always been an issue for me in eve, the balance is just not right, this has been the case on my last two PCs and they had different sound cards and speakers. The space environment is way too low, I have to really turn up my sound to get some decent audio but the "boom" from warping will lift me out of it while engine noises, cloaking etc are just audible. If I launch some missles or shoot some guns then I'm back to adjusting me audio down as its too loud. Then I dock and the room starts to shake from the station environment sounds, it's just a bit all over the place. It's not the bass or treble or anything like that, I've even made an EQ for eve to attempt to balance the sounds.
I'm a firm believer it will be fixed all in due time, just some feedback.

After waiting 8 hrs to download APOCRYPHA I am some what disappointed with the outcome.
The sound quality is absolute pants
The gate jump sequence is feeble compared to what it was before
The time to warp from hitting the command button to hearing the warp engaged message and something actually happening is far to long.
We have been promised much and I see nothing apart from a few fancy bells and whistles that don't work properly.
I cannot afford high end gear to run the new high spec graphics, why fix somthing when it was not broken in the first place.
Please Please bring back the previous edition untill such times as all the bugs have been fixed. My EVE experience has been well and truly messed up by having to upgrade to somthing I really did not want or need.

I'll chime in too with some feedback.
Certain things I like, certain things I don't. Unfortunately, bad seems to overlap the good at the moment. Apocrypha seems very much rushed. Devs could have taken 2 more months if needed to fix things up instead of rushing it out so now we have to suffer through bug ridden gameplay awaiting patch after patch.
Sounds. Yup, the volume is weird to say the least. I noticed they divided sound categories by channels. I have 4 speakers. The front 2 speakers now play the music, computer voice and gameplay sounds (clicks and ticks) while the back 2 speakers play the environment sounds. The sound volume is unbalanced. Certain things too loud (amarr stations), certain things too low (engine sounds, turrets, computer voice etc).
I really really like some of the new sounds as they're quite atmospheric and mysterious. I just hope to see them more balanced in terms of volume.
I like the jumpgate bubble effect and sound.
I'm not too fond of the new warpdrive though. Too watery. Too weak. Too unnoticeable. And no camera shake. Must be a bug since camera shake is still in the options. The old warpdrive was better, no comparison.
Fitting screen is a bit amateurish but I can live with it.
Agent missions are all in one screen now, and as soon as you click the agent icon, you get the mission offer. No more conversation, offer is there right away resulting in unwanted decisions.
All other effects and remakes (like roids) are all good by me.
Let's hope for bugs to be sorted out.

Why the F*ck do people have to change some things, when it all works perfect???
Couldn't you just have left the classic mode, and lesser grph's changes, or do we have to buy a freakin new computer everytime you guys wanna do large patches???
Defenitly not happy, can't even login other accounts!

I like it. I miss the colors of lasers as distinguished by the crystals. It made sense that different wavelengths has different colors. I miss the bubble of the shield booster. But, overall, I like it. The skill planner is fantastic.
I like the new asteroids. The rest is just something to adjust to. Time marches on!

Who was the sherlock who decide to put WORMHOLES in high sec? That killed the low sec game completlly. Check the status on low sec trafic and you will know why.
And put colour back to guns, and fix the sound levels they are way too low.

WOW........I'm sorry some people are having a difficult time adjusting to the new improved graphics. I know its hard to keep up with the growing technology and understand the frustrations but I don't have the problems yet. So let me just say this........ WOW!! All the new graphics and effects are more realistic that ever. I can fully appreciate the hard work that went into this. However I do have one small complaint.
That little pop up with advisories and such is most annoying. It the heat of a fight it might be the edge to loss. Thus there should be a way to disable it.

Would you be willing to pay double every month so they can afford to keep updates coming for multiple code bases? I wouldn't. And since QR it HASN'T run perfectly: it's had massive memory leaks, replicable on several different OS's and hardware platforms, causing almost unplayable lag. In 3-4 hours of gameplay last night I didn't see any lag at all.

First, there are some great things i have found so far with the udpate, not having to ask agents for mission details, changes to the skills (queue) and some of the new sounds.
Which brings me to the biggest problem I have had so far.
The changes to the sound levels really destroys the game experience.
1. the in station 'music' is WAY TOO LOUD. and cannot be adjusted by either scrolling out the view or without essentially turning off sound outside the station.
2. the changes to 'distance' effects for sound is also really bad. I don t want to play in silence, yet I have to be scrolled in much to close to the ship to hear normal effects like guns, warp sounds, etc. so the choice becomes, listen to sound effects and watch the lights blink on the ship i am flying, or use the tactical overview, watch where i am and what i am doing in space in almost total silence.
3. there are VERY loud clicks as one or the other stereo channel turns off as you move past an object in space. this is clearly a bug and should be addressed before someone's expensive home theatre system blows up or their ear drums do.
4. voice announcements seem to 'turn off' at random. so the announcement 'the capacitor is empty' may or may not occur. this is potentially fatal
Please bring back the 'classic' sound level tunings or provide a larger subselection of sounds controls, ie controls for the in-station environment separate from out of station, weapon sounds, etc.
Thanks.

Worst expansion in a long time, quality-wise.
It was expected/imminent, given that SiSi was more buggy than a 3 week old carcass of a weasel only few days before release.
I blame whoever is in charge - sack his ass and get a new manager that knows when to delay a release.
Lot of the respect earned by many good releases was lost in this one...

What can I say? You (CCP) have done a hell of a job with buffing up the UI and features. Just tripped over another one - went to enter Jita and got a pop-up telling me that it was too busy and offered to move me 1 jump out. LOL! That was great! No more 5 minute login of death! Woohoo!
Excellent work! take a breath, have a beer or two and then start tackling the bugs and fine-tuning it. |

Engine sounds and sound levels in general are off. Engine sound is very low, too low even adjusting all the sound levels in game does not fix it.
Laser, Gun Colors are all missing. This is a real let down as they where beautyfull before and not now.
Some ships like CLAW, STILETTO lost ALL color/litghts. Please put them back.
Thanx

Graphics runs smoothly than before. Sound is a bit of let down as mentioned in previous threads.
An extra 3000 solar systems being introduced when current systems cant handel x amount of players as it is.
Lag after the patch is a joke, orca i was in dissapeared after i undocked in Amarr, now i can even logg in.

Im not sure what some of the other feedback has been givenis about, or even there real reasons, but its a nice lovely massive upgrade and something like this that keeps the game alive. I have had a few problems but the game is playable and yes maybe laggy at times but with such a massive patch it has gone rather smoothly as far as I can see.
5-6 Years I have been playing and everytime a new patch is out you get so much rubbish feed back from those who dont really know what they are talking about, also dont appreciate how hard it is to get something perfect (look at the back log on Starcraft 2 because they want it perfect) please do get into that habbit.
Guys at CCP you do a good job and ignore the crap you have been getting.
P.S. Looking forward to the small fixes for this patch and walking on stations when it comes.

Well I might not know what I'm talking about, but what hadn't happened to me in the old eve is:
not being able to either, approach, warp...basically move anywhere while i was in the MIDDLE of the fight. so what could i do but "QUIT GAME" in order to avoid that, its just too shabby. Next time I turn it on I'm like..k lets give it another shot. So what happened...I engage the rats, but the dial isn't working. They're all firing missiles at me and the dial isn't updating the shield and armor damage, just can't play a mission like that. besides that, I couldn't put two of my turrets online, yes they were offline for some reason. It said "you cannot do that while warping", and I'm basically floating in mid air..0 m/s.
The fitting screen...well I just couldn't find the info on available turret and launcher slots which was handy.
My corp buddy couldnt use the stargates, he just couldnt reach any destination that he'd set.
The sound is terrible, can't hear a thing during combats nor when i'm warping.
I don't have to play 5-6 years to figure that out.

Hello ccp
Generally a well done indeed for so many improvements.
BUT....
Sounding experience has indeed downgraded or volumed down or missleveled amongst various layers of sounding. Yes guns sounds of our ships AND the npc's are diminished if u zoom out just alil bit. Same on gates jumpin. Please keep the slider of word volume WE LIKE IT but bring back a sounding experience we had. i mean the leveling and mixing amongst all sounds. We all want to hear other's guns fire and explosion of opponents. It could fade away but not on 5km but like 20km or 50. Let players then drag the word slider to desired level. Station sounding should be buttoned to on-off.
Ah and too much lag guys.
Thats for now. Again Very good work in general |

on top of all..the fact that some people have lost some of their existant skill levels after using the skill queue isn't a "good job". I'm but I also pay for this game and this is just frustrating. I haven't played the apocrypha even for 3 hours and I've encountered so many bugs already. Besides, I was a part of a game development team 2 years ago so I don't have to hear how hard it is to work on a game.

Graphics r nice, it runs smoother on my crappy computer then classic did. Wormholes r fun already got a 15 man fleet lost in one.
But all my probe launchers, sister or otherwise have converted to expanded. So to have all the launchers in my corp hanger. You said that explorer launchers would be converted to core and combat launchers converted to expanded.
YOU LIED

Feedback
- agree with all re sound issues - too quiet, lots of clicks instead of explosions. Graphics are stunning, skill queue is quality addition, but help me I'm stuck trying to dock at the moment...had to alt tab and then shut down game from windows. now every time I try to log on am just watching the 'entering game as lysan dar' screen and have been for over an hour now...and I know I'm outside a station waiting to dock...
