What other old effects used to kick ass that CCP mysteriously decided to get rid of?

The acceleration gates when activated. They had some mysterious about them and gave a very powerful impression when warping your ship into the "unknown". Now they are dull, boring and static. It's a shame really...

There have been notices why from CCP. That it caused performance issues when you had large (large being back in 2007) amounts of ships giving off trails. The trails also didn't update very often meaning in orbits they were very ?polygonial? and even then there was performance issues. ------------------------------------- The system issues man. |

Really the only new effect I don't like over the old ones is the cyno effect. But apparently ccp think the new one sucks too and are redoing it along with many other effects in the game. I assume it will probably go live when incarna hits or possibly tyrannis though I doubt it will be that early as I think ccp are saving all the really good stuff for wis to make it a total package to impress all the new joiners and the inevitable major gaming site re-reviews. I do miss the trails but as has been said they look kinda polygonal on orbiting ships or drones. No harm in bringing them back though if you can simply disable them like the other effects.

There is a petition in features section to bring back the old cyno effect, I think someone from CCP eventually replied and said that it wouldn't be exactly like the old one, but it would be nice or something like that.

the only new effect I'm really not happy with is the sensor booster, I really liked the pulsing ring.

Tractor beams are screwed up to me at least. I noticed for at least the last 6 months when ever you grab something the beam quickly shoots anywhere from 5kms to 120kms sometimes (visual read, doesn't really happen) behind the ship then updates back to its original position.

omg this. I miss my old megapulse effects. They were perfect and now a teddybear launcher would probably look/sound more badass.

people complained when they changed the old old computer voice? the one that sounded as if she was being forced to recite the lines while her head was in a bucket of water?
my only complaint with the animations is the cyno/jump animation as mentioned plenty above, while the old one was a bit odd at times the new one is just insufficiently epic  _____________________ Horrors! Demons in the deep! |

Target painters. Without anti-aliasing on, they tend to look diconnected and inconsistent at a distance, and sometimes the ship target paints the game camera instead of the ship it's TPing, making a headache inducing red pixely angly flashing thing on screen.

Most definitely this! The old graphic gave the impression that you were being hurled like a lump of iron into the unknown by a giant magnet.
Now it's like a turd that won't flush. Removed. Please keep your EVE signature related to your EVE persona and not that of a real life politician. Navigator |

WOMP-WOMP-WOMP-WOMP.
You knew you were scrambled, and you could see where it was coming from.
Is there even a new scramble effect?
All the new visual effects are weak IMO, most are near invisible.
I've made this point before. No-one who matters cares.

Old warp sound, Old nos, and those old swishy menus that used to slide down from the top of the screen then open with a nice animation and sound rather than simply appearing like they do now :( -omg-
