Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:05:00 - [1] I tried to get used to it, but I hate it. There is no sense of speed. It feels rather like Im moving in slow motion through fluid. It feels more like a deep sea sub game than a space game. And what's up with that funky warp bubble effect just before you jump a gate? The first couple of times it's cool, but it gets old really fast and that constant flashing gets annoying. WHY oh WHY does CCP take one step forward and two back? Why do they change things that work perfectly? What was wrong with the old warp effect? With the old jump effect? If anything they should have gotten rid of that "swoosh" beam of light that shoots out of the jump gate when you jump. You are "jumping" not "beaming" to your next destination. Rant over.

Johnnyan	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:10:00 - [6] Well, i must agree i hate most of the new effects and the thing is i dont really understand why they had to create new ones, there were many things they could have done why change existing things that were not broken ?

I was playing the classic client prior to this upgrade, so I dont know if there is a difference. But in classic you had a Doppler shift effect and way more lateral distortion than you have now.

Get over it. And why is it that almost all the graphics whiners have craptastic 2002 systems and were just up until the new patch playing the old client? Why is it that the people who can't afford a couple hundred bucks for computer parts and upgrades whine the loudest? Use some of that whining energy and update your resume.
SadisticSavior Caldari	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:15:00 - [11] I don't hate the new effect, but the old one was better. The new one feels like sliding down a tube made of cellophane. I'm not opposed to adding or updating effects in the game at all. I like it that CCP is always improving graphics. But this one should go back to the drawing board. Ditto with the Jumpgate effect. Not crazy about the new railgun firing graphics either. Though I like the new shield/armor hardener/repair/booster effects a lot. Also like new torpedo and laser effects. (Reunification is Coming)

Ghengis Tia	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:19:00 - [14] The turbine-like "whoosh" at stargates was noisy and obnoxious. The whole universe is a lot quieter now. If you hit autopilot, and were approaching a gate, all you heard was jump after jump after jump ad infinitum as players used the stargate. Good riddance. The cloaking effect is more like the classic version, without the front-to-back movement that was cool to look at but somewhat unrealistic to how cloaking devices are supposed to operate (I guess). I can put up with anything visually if the the noise was abated, so it's fine by me.
5pinDizzy	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:20:00 - [15] Hmm, another thread about this, ok why not. Jump effect - cool Jumps sound - cool Warp effect - ugh Warp sound - wtf? brrr puts more coal on the fire What's funny is there's a good 5 years after eve first came out yet there's several effects they've decided to change that look no better at all, just different really, not even in a good way with some of them (see above).
Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:20:00 - [16] There is a belief among many users that because something is labeled an "upgrade" it MUST be better. Not necessarily so. I like to use the term "side-grade" for something that isn't necessarily an improvement, but rather a change. Like Vista vs XP for example. I would like to see better performance, better fluidity among the many interfaces in the game. If anything, the UI needs a major overhaul. The closest they came to this was the training que, which I love.
Ivy Scorn Amarr Nethro Ore Conglomerate	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:22:00 - [17] Originally by: Neo Omni But in classic you had a Doppler shift effect and way more lateral distortion than you have now. so you're saying you don't see the turbulent stuff flying past you or the red/blue shift before/behind you? might want to increase your graphics settings cause I see both of that in my client. the only thing missing is the camera shake - and I think they reduced the volume of the warp-boom, but that's okayish.

Dude, i have an expensive PC, and i'm pretty objective in everything i say, so maybe you should get over your elitism and analyze things for what they are, some of the new effects suck, even if i ask my granma', its just the way they are, the thing that really bothers me is the actual point of creating new effects when none really complained about the old ones, now its like some dev experimented with something and he is now showing us bubbling and windy effects everywhere. One simple, objective question, what the hell is that thing you get when you activate a deadspace gate, really, what is that ? What about that groovy tractor beam one ? I cant be that wrong, ffs.
Ragnar Foulberg	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:25:00 - [19] Actually, the new graphic is fine. I'm not sure if it's an improvement or not, but I don't think it's any worse than the old one. That said, the sound effects that go along with it are weak. As are a few of the other new sounds. They just sound rather gutless to me.

Actually I dont see it. I like keeping the resolution low because I cant read the fonts at higher resolution, and there is no way to increase their size. I do have shader set to low (if it makes a difference) because it eliminates the anti-aliasing dots/spots issues when I set it higher. Waiting patiently for the next patch. BTW: My system: Quad core 2.66Ghz 4 gigs ram 20 inch monitor ATI Radeon HD 4650 video card. So I'm not running antique hardware.

You saying some of the new effects suck like its the word of God is elitist. Well, I probably exaggerated with the "elitist" part, still, i consider that is kinda obvious that some of the new effects are really worst than the old ones, i gaved 2 examples and I'll stick to that.

Mind'flayer	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:35:00 - [28] I really don't like the new warp effects either. Just on a pure aesthetic level, they just don't look as good. That slimy plastic wrap effect is used WAY to much in this expansion. Vary the effects :) I don't know what real warp speed travel should look like in EVE, but what was happening in the old warp tunnel felt much much better. I have never been a fan of "random" graphic updates. Instead of changing the look completely for an effect, just make its resolution and depth better. I think a lot of us get attached to a certain feel for a game, when it changes it changes that place in our heads when we are playing. Look CCP, I'm glad you figured out the Saranwarp¬ effect, but its not needed everywhere. If it was up to me, I would reserve these new effects for new actions. Use the Saranwarp¬ thing for wormhole related effects or some type of T3 shield or what ever. my .02isk
FOl2TY8 Interstellar Brotherhood of Gravediggers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2009.03.13 17:36:00 - [29] Yeah it sucks also because the warp effect has so much effect on the actual gameplay. ---------- This post brought to you by the worst PVP'er in Eve
