I like where this is going, but I wont know if I like it until I have a chance to use it. I will probably check out sisi... Regardless though this needs to be optional and be introduced along with the current methods. Also don't let your zeal for providing an alternative to right click menus cause you to remove them, please... |

This is not a good practice: As a corp member I may want to move items to hangars I don't have (view) access to. This happens a lot of times. Good point. We'll be looking into this issue. I have a loot drop hangar for corp mates to drop loot from kills they don't want to keep. Would ruin my elegant solution. 
I have a small gang of highsec miners that currently rely on being able to dump into hangers they have no access to. If you take away this ability, it will cause several corps to re-structure, and we wont be happy about it. |

ok, I just logged into sisi and am trying it out. For the love of god do not replace our current UI with this!!!!! I cant even open my orca corp hangers in a separate window, and I dont like having to spawn my custom windows with shift clicking. this is not a step forward for my inventory management. Release this as a new feature that does not replace my current windows, or don't release it at all. I have been with eve since Beta in 2003, and if you replace my windows with this crap, then I don't see myself sticking around for much longer. I don't mean to put down your great work and ideas with this. But this is an idea that needs lots of refinement and feedback before anyone should come close to the idea of replacing our current windows with it. The current UI is great because it allows everyone to customize it so heavily and simply... This one size fits all window does not come close for me. Thanks for the effort though guys... I do like being able to see estimated values, that's neat. |

I think it would be best if you guys look into how you can take some of the best stuff from this, and incorporate it into the current UI slowly. maybe start with the estimated isk price. The current UI is not broken, and should not be totaly re-vamped. |

I really need to get some DEV feedback on this. I am watching a freight train hurtling down the tracks into a populated area, and the conductor appears to be asleep, slumped over on the accelerator... |

CCP. I don't have the luxury of looking over this and deciding if this is a game that I want to get into and spend my time on. I have already invested some 9 years with you guys, I have wasted time, and I am invested. I have been doing things a certain way for 9 years, and you are about to force me to abandon all my current workflows. If this was a brand new game that I had never played, I would probably not get into it because of the unified inventory alone. Do not implement changes that interrupt business as usual. You are not a new game, this is not a time to reinvent the wheel and throw it out there on everyone's cars. People have developed habits and procedures that work and serve them well. You cant just kill that off now without serious repercussions.
Think CCP! You have had 9 years of great success with the current windowed interface. The most basic and universal thing in the game, the User Interface. You are talking about throwing out your proven foundation!THINK CCP, THINK! |

CCP: This is happening, just accept it.
sounds like what most people hear right before getting raped, and I don't want to be raped. Unless its by Zooey Deschanel, then its good r@pe. BUT THIS IS NOT GOOD R@PE! |

This is good to hear, as I was starting to wonder if it was going to become an annual ritual of CCP to shoot itself in the head with it's Hubris of not listening to player feedback and killing it's subscriber base with it's summer release.
I cannot help but think CCP has not yet fully recovered from last summers Incarna debacle, simply because what was once the pitchline of CCP was it's constantly increasing subscriber base, then when those numbers went in the toilet ,we were no longer able to access and track the number of logins and subscribers.If those numbers are available once again i'd love to know.
I DO pay my monthly subscription fee, so I do want the game to succeed, but I can say that I have played a lot less in the last year and many people I know have played a lot less, have taken a long Hiatus ,and some are only coming back now, people I haven't seen online since last summer. I would hate to see peopele get that bad taste in their mouth once again and either unsub, or just be subbed and never logon till the point somewhere down the road they feel they no longer want to pay 15 dollars a month for the privelege of skill training in a game they stopped playing months earlier.
I like the game, to an extent I like the people, but , to be honest, as an older player, I dont share the appreciation of the value of " tears" which seems to be such a motivating factor for so many younger players, and I also dont feel like constantly relearning a game i spent time to become proficient at.
CCP seeks to keep its game pertinent and fresh by changing elements of it so it doesn't become stagnant. This I understand and condone.What I don't want to do is relearn the game every 12 months and its interface. In short I want a game , not a chore.The new interface makes the game a chore again, and takes away much of what has been a comfort zone for longtime players.CCP has a succesful game, Dunno what makes them think they can constantly reinvent it and every time they it will be a hit. That's not the case as Incarna taught us. Whoever at CCP is spreading the Gospel of reinventing the game needs to be brought under check, as this person has too much influence on game design. Improve it, dont reinvent it. Certain CCP personell may enjoy using the player base as labrats in social experiments, " hey lets mess crap up and see how they react, that will freshen the game up",and while that may be amusing to a certain type of person to have control over others, its not the experience I am looking for when logging on to play a game I have played for years. Its should be obvious that if people are playing for YEARS, that familiarity and comfort are a key draw to them.Changing fundamental interface mechanics changes the entire player experience, and is a gamble itself as far as maintaining player loyalty and playerbase.
Changes, tweaks, Progress, content. This is what we want.This constant attempt at the reinvention of the wheel is eventually going to be opposed by a loyal core of people who are simple tooled and machined for the old " wheel" and just don't want or need a new one, and if forced may simply move on to something different entirely.
This massive Enraging of the player base once a year by what is perceived to be CCP Hubris will be it's undoing if it continues.Older players in particular will not keep returning in good faith,if they see the writing on the wall, and older players in particular are not inclined to suffer fools gladly.
Holy Hell... I cant quote this a million times, so I will do it just once. But as a 9+ year old player, these are basically my exact thoughts.
And for the record, I am a big supporter of Incarna. don't forget Devs, the only thing that killed Incarna was lost functionality, and not allowing the old and new to live side by side...
PS: Is anyone working on Walking In Stations over there? I still really really want that. |

I think this problem partly stems from the way CCP is giving out information. Behind the scenes a great master plan has been created, however, The dev blogs only give us glimpses of what is to come. I have a feeling that this new UI is part of some master plan, and is intertwined into it in a way that it must be pushed out with the rest of it.
That is a problem.
CCP should be including us on the design of the master plan, not just the new individual cogs and gears they are planning. |

After my first look at Sisi, I cant bring myself to test the updates, I will take your guys word for it that it still sucks. I don't want to spend another single second on that thing that I don't have to, and am already bracing myself for patch day. |

THIS IS A IDIOTIC IDEA! I think you don't understand one thing. There is small arrow that allows you to hide whole tree, so than it looks mostly like old window just with cargo capacity and extended filters.

I will probably be moving out of WH space because of this change. I may have to shut down my highsec POS too.... Basically an entire corp shutting down.... I cannot deal with this ****. I think I will just withdraw for a while, I have better **** to do. This game is not fun anymore. I was literally screaming at my f****** screen just trying to mine. 10 f****** years CCP! 10 YEARS!!!! You are killing "permanent" customers. I am soooooo not happy right now its not even funny. |
