Hi CCP!

I love the new inventory system and I see where you're going with it. However, with it's current release, you'll make a LOT of your existing customers mad. Please, in order to avoid a huge protest etc, try to keep things similar to how we're used to using them, yet enhance our day to day tasks. As I said, the new system is better, but please don't remove our old functionality that we are used to.

MS didn't confine us to a single explorer window.





1. Confining us to a single instance of our inventory is too drastic of a change. Please allow multiple instances of that inventory window.

2. Create Simlinks to familiar shortcuts. MS never removed the taskbar or the startmenu, they added on to it. Removing someone's ship hangar and not creating a sim-link to the inventory section is going to frustrate more than make people happy.

3. Naming of corporate tabs.

Did you saw WIN 8???

THe new inventory system is fine. HOWEVER, you need to add the ability to bookmark a split ships menu. right now, you can break different views of your inventory into seperate windows, simulating the old system. however, you cannot then pin them to your neocom. players would be much happier if you could create neocom shortcuts to customs inventory views, for maximum usability. until then, people are just going to emo about having to use a new system which is almost robust and adaptive, but is missing that final inch that it needs to go from overly complex to extremely robust.

allowing people to pin the windows that we break off with custom views as their own neocom shortcuts would allow players not only to recreate an older system that they already know, but would allow even more new options, like players who would want neocom shortcuts for corp hangers, filtered inventory views or any number of other options.

1st you people tried to kill the neo neocom, and now the new item window?

you people make me sick

If you're going to contribute to this thread, please do so constructively. The new inventory system is good, it is a step in the right direction. Right now it's bad though.

if you took the time to read the thread you would know that that is not what we are doing at all. now shut the **** up.

The new inventory system is utterly useless, totally horrendous, it's like going back to the very first GUI systems and even they were better

or to be more accurate/elaborate, it currently is a more robust and customizable system, but certain (absent) UI elements make it so you have to re-work the system every time you try to find anything/do certain basic functions, when we should be able to tailor the system to our needs and then nail it down that way, making it an improvement rather than a headache in which we need to reinvent the wheel every time we switch ships. only make us reinvent the wheel once the first time we use it.

I have seen the same said about windows 7, how can anyone really think windows 95 had better navigation than windows 7?

You can revert it back to a conventional windows interface.

I like the new system for the most part.

The negative I have (that I came on here looking for the "new inventory" thread to mention) is the lack of multi-select on the filters. I can only assume they've programmed it as an "AND" statement rather than an "OR" statement, so that when you click BOTH "Ammunition" AND "Modules" it filters EVERYTHING out and shows NOTHING, as oppose to what I would've expected... the ability to see my Ammo and Modules while hiding everything else.

tbh i expected that as an "and" and tbh i think that is the way most filters work in my experience.

I don't think you've quite understood what I'm getting at. I don't think I explained it very well.

The problem with doing it the way they've done it is that there isn't a single item in the entire game that is both a module AND ammunition, so multiselecting the filters will never yield any results at all. There will always be nothing there when 2 filters are selected.

Unless they plan to bring in the facility to throw our turrets at the enemy when we're out of ammo.

Just make it optional, so user can disable or enable old / new system.


In windows 8 ?
NO YOU CAN'T, it's only that metro stupid squares.
You can't go back in Windows 8.

there are custom filters. you can do it by metalevel, cost, etc. so there are definitely filter combos that are more complex.
