BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD - PART TWO

1. I have posted some new examples of the malfunctions which exist in the Unified Inventory System (UIS).

2. Each example includes highlights and comments in a step-by-step scenario.

3. CCP will you please have a look and see what if anything can be done to correct the malfunctions.


Respectfully Submitted,

Yes we all know about that shift click crap.. But the problem is that u need to shift click million times during day because it doesnt remember what windows u had open before u undocked or logged out!!!

Their silence on this particular issue is distressing. I'm starting to wonder if they are even considering fixing this...

Ok negative nancy maybe you have mental issues and enjoyed undocking and redocking continuously just to open your cargo windows. I for one spend 45+ min out of station. And even when i do dock its only to unload cargo, maybe speak with an agent.
Its only 2 possibly 3 windows depending on what your doing. And their placement will be the same when you open them. Sorry if a few clicks upon entering station is too much for you. Its really only one more click than you did when you had the old ui.

Any news on when pi in factional warfare low sec is gonna be fixed?

No we don't want the old inventory back, thank you very much.

Dear CCP,

DON'T YOU READ THREADS?????

PEOPLE (YOUR CUSTOMERS....US) JUST WANT TO HAVE THE OPTION OF CHOOSING BETWEEN SOMETHING THAT IS WORKING SINCE 9 YEARS OR YOUR SO CALLED NEW UI.
STOP WASTING TIME TO TRY FIXING SOMETHING THAT 2% OF PEOPLE WANT!

At the Fanfest, you said that you will listen and work with your customers, dont see that yet.

You promessed that the new patch will be full of amazing features, WHERE ARE THEY?


LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS FEEDBACK!

I have, and it worked just fine. Ive done maybe a dozen L4 missions since the new UI, looted and salvaged them all in about the same time as before.

Key words = "ABOUT the same time"

Point of contention = Lag that is here now, that wasn't before

About doesn't mean worse. My experience says it's the same.

Then you wouldn't have cared what he said about the efficiency of looting.

Honestly, i think the unified window is a good idea implemented wrong
it sucks balls for WH life.
if i could have one window that could contain upto 4 inventories to display and with the list on the left allowing for customisation of what i can see (say have a tree with the top being what ever you want it to be) then it would be awesome

Before new UI...

Dock ship
Switch to new ship from already open list
Drag ammo into cargohold
Drag nanite paste into cargohold
Undock


With new UI...

Dock ship
Open unified inventory window
Click ship hangar line
Wait for it to load looking at little spinning circle
Switch to new ship
Click item hangar line
Wait for it to load looking at little spinning circle
Drag ammo into the line with the ship name
Don't let go fast enough and switch active window to he ship's cargohold
Click the item hangar line again
Drag nanite paste to the line with the ship name but miss by a hair and let go on the line under it
Do it again really slow to make sure it lands on the right line
Undock

Even something as simple as switching and loading ships takes three times as long.

And yes, while I could avoid a couple delays by shift clicking open everything I want to work with (everytime I dock) that takes longer than it used to as well.

Not to mention how often I almost drop stuff into the corp hangar instead of the personal one. Or how fun it is to line up the ship hangar list just right so that I can put certain ships into my carrier.

The new Inventory UI is fine once you bother to play with it and start adding your own filters. It's a major change, yes. But ffs HTFU and start exploring its quite obvious benefits.

(On the other hand, it doesn't do anything for me at our starbases. As others have said, we NEED to rename Arrays in particular, and we NEED to collapse batteries et al.)

Anyway +1 for CCP obviously working hard to address stuff in a timely fashion. Post-release minor patches are rapid, and are now nothing more than minor inconveniences. The whole new Launcher/patch system is working really well.

Its rather unfortunate that you cant adjust to change. A lot of people can't but I welcome this particular change (as do many others) it makes things much nicer and easier imo. I hate drag and drop between windows i'd much rather drag as it is now.

No, you MUST loot the large cap boosters along with everything else, and you WILL like it. They'll totally go for the sell price!

Ever hear of reprocessing?

I get the feeling that I'm trying to convey something to people that hit "LOOT ALL" and call it good, because I cant fathom anyone dragging and dropping with this system and actually being able to tolerate it at all. Efficient means it's efficient at all things that it is needed for, not a niche thing.

*ahh, just saw the post before the above. Suspicion confirmed. If you think looting EVERYTHING is efficient, I have nothing more to say to you

Reprocessing low value high volume trash would be worthwhile if cargohold size was infinite, which it is not. Enjoy flying back and forth as a interstellar garbageman.

You know, you guys had the chance to say you didn't like the new Inventory system before it was placed on the live server. The new Inventory was on the test server for weeks before it hit live, and you could've taken the time and tried it out, and give feedback about why you hate it or like it, but no, you didn't want to put in the extra effort, just like you don't want to do a few extra mouse clicks to make up for what changed. Next time they put out a new update, and they are changing the way you play the game you love, don't just sit on your ass until after it comes out and complain on the forums about it, that doesn't do **** in the way of fixing the problem, actually try testing it and giving feedback. That helps a lot more than whining about it after the fact. Me, I actually tested it and liked it, so I did my part, what did you do?
