Neo Omni Gallente	Posted - 2009.03.28 08:39:00 - [1] OK, so the nebula thing is way overdone in EVE. Look more like clouds. Feels like Im rather flying through multicolored skies than space. BTW...space is mostly black and nebula dont look like clouds.
Lothros Andastar Gallente	Posted - 2009.03.28 08:47:00 - [2] Um yes, except when you realise the whole eve "galaxy" is actually a tiny cluster of stars within such nebulas and the like are extremely common.

P.S. What we see is generated by our Pods so we dont go insane. Perhaps, but for a space based game...it sucks.

If you don't like It quit, or turn off your monitor. That will make it nice and black for you.
Northern Fall Minmatar Guild Academy Guild Alliance	Posted - 2009.03.28 08:57:00 - [5] Makes the galaxy purdy, i aint complainin \o/
Sirial Soulfly	Posted - 2009.03.28 09:07:00 - [6] Edited by: Sirial Soulfly on 28/03/2009 09:07:14 Completely agree its way too fluffy, would love to see some real space and ccp have acknowleged it as well as they plan to redo the backgrounds at some point its on the 'to do list' aka 'soonÖ So I guess in a year or 2.
Xailia Unsteady Corporation	Posted - 2009.03.28 10:35:00 - [7] Parts of space do look like EVE space. Earth is in a pretty barren part of the Milky Way. "The sky above the port was the color of a television, tuned to a dead channel."

Nova Fox Gallente Novafox Shipyards	Posted - 2009.03.28 10:48:00 - [9] dunno alot of nebulas when painted in invisible specturms look rather purdy and some even do look like clouds liek the horse shoe nebula i think it was. ============= Pre Order your Sisters of Eve ship today
BongoMongo	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:02:00 - [10] actually, some of the nebula pictures thats been taken does resemble the backgrounds in eve. I dont know the science behind them, but there might be a bit too many fluffy elements in the eve universe. 1 or 3 small clouds/nebulas would be okay, but those long rings that kind of circle around the whole system is a bit too much :P

Ankhesentapemkah Gallente Federal Defence Union	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:07:00 - [11] Yeah except the brown ones because we all know what type that is. ---
TimMc Gallente The Black Rabbits The Gurlstas Associates	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:08:00 - [12] Originally by: Northern Fall Makes the galaxy purdy, i aint complainin \o/ This... if space was just a bunch of stars then it would be bloody boring.

The Shadowman	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:20:00 - [14] I would rather see a 50/50 split between a dark star field and nebula backgrounds. The best of both worlds that way, and would make the nebula more interesting, rather then being overdone, as they are now. Btw, as far as my limited understanding goesàin reality you don't see nebula in colour as per the famous hubble pictures. Those are multiple images layered, each image is taken specifically to measure a certain wavelength and from that infer what materials the clouds contain. ____ ...they will look up and shout; save us. And I will whisper, no!
Mara Rinn	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:24:00 - [15] Nebulas in space are pretty much the same as clouds. They come in different shapes and sizes, and there's nothing at all stopping all the stars in the EVE cluster being smack bang in the middle of a very nebula-rich portion of the universe. Of course, given the option of gaudy pink clouds filling up space, versus empty black - I'd take the empty black. Most of the nebulas are dull or include some black space so I'm not complaining too loudly. As long I still have some dark background for the module buttons, to see which ones are active and overheated, I'll only be complaining very softly.
Xailia Unsteady Corporation	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:38:00 - [16] Edited by: Xailia on 28/03/2009 11:40:22 Reflection nebulae tend to be blue, emission nebulae tend to be red. However, green and yellow nebulae also exist. That pretty much covers all of the nebulae we see. It will be lovely when systems are set into a common 3D skybox, apparently coming SoonÖ Oh, and nebulae are clouds of gas or plasma, and they are blown around by wind. So as such resemble atmospheric clouds. "The sky above the port was the color of a television, tuned to a dead channel."
Arvald Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2009.03.28 11:57:00 - [17] i honestly dont mind the nebula, but i would like to see maby a check box to disable them if you want to. i remember when we had that map glitch where it would make all the nebula go away, gave ever a totally different feel for me ok but seriously, next person that derails my thread gets a railroad spike shoved through their neck
Arvald Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2009.03.28 12:01:00 - [18] Edited by: Arvald on 28/03/2009 12:01:14 holy crap these forums are ****ing me off, double post ok but seriously, next person that derails my thread gets a railroad spike shoved through their neck
Stabby McKnife	Posted - 2009.03.28 12:03:00 - [19] Go back to Homeworld... oh wait...
Khlitouris RegusII	Posted - 2009.03.28 12:52:00 - [20] Originally by: Neo Omni OK, so the nebula thing is way overdone in EVE. Look more like clouds. Feels like Im rather flying through multicolored skies than space. BTW...space is mostly black and nebula dont look like clouds. Have a look at orion looks like huge pillars of clouds.

Yes but it doesnt take away from the fact that a space based game should have some...empty space.

Feels like Im rather flying through multicolored skies than space. BTW...space is mostly black and nebula dont look like clouds. Yes some of the renders from Apocrypha look more like atmospheric flight than space flight (namely, this one and this one, for example.) I think the main problem is that the nebula clouds in those renders are whitish and not colored, like you might see in the picture that Arthur Frayn just showed: Originally by: Arthur Frayn Look at the silly clouds in space! (Look how the clouds are bright red.) I don't know why CCP choose to put whitish nebula clouds. Maybe Torfi can answer that. But if you are near or in the middle of a nebula, space is not at all black. We are just too influenced by some sci-fi movies on that respect. ---- Originally by: Anne M.

Arthur Frayn V.O.F.L IRON CORE H E L I C O N	Posted - 2009.03.28 13:22:00 - [24] The funny thing is that all the multicoloured hubble images of nebulae we see posted around the internet are false colour images. CCP seem to have based space backgrounds on them. However, some nebulae look quite pretty in true colour too. -- Eventus stultorum magister.
Nicholas Barker Black Nova Corp KenZoku	Posted - 2009.03.28 13:38:00 - [25] Completely black background, with maybe one nebula that you can see far away that's always in the same direction. The odd system and wormhole space should have the pretty backgrounds + weird visual effects, and this would make some appear so much more awesome. ------
