Naomi Wildfire Mind Games. Suddenly Spaceships. 108	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:39:00 - [1] - Quote I think its way to big, it blocks more than 1/3 of the screen, mostly with white, unused space. You can see whats going on, but i really dislike the small screen which hides all the piloting stuff going on. Also its too bright and draws too much attention
Logical Chaos Tremendous Fail Inc. 8	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:40:00 - [2] - Quote I second that statement... The stream quality in total is pretty crap compared to recent tournaments aswell.
Linda Shadowborn Dark Steel Industries 147	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:41:00 - [3] - Quote its a tad to big yes but the info is just sooo good to have. but yes a slightly less glaring white would be nice.
Yimodo Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:41:00 - [4] - Quote I have to agree, this screen format on the stream sucks..... You can only see half of the screen, please go back to the old setup with the teams on either side of the screen
Agent Type Fweddit I Whip My Slaves Back and Forth 2	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:42:00 - [5] - Quote Third. First thing I noticed... way too big of an interface. Also, I am only able to watch in 360p. Anything higher then that and it is non-stop stuttering.
Varesk Mafia Redux Black Legion. 101	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:43:00 - [6] - Quote It wouldnt be so bad if they would remove the letterbox format.

I agree that this is nice info, but it should have been attached to the old frames that did not block the whole screen.
Narkotik Greek Death Squad Vera Cruz Alliance 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:43:00 - [8] - Quote Why ccp, why??? The old format worked so well all these years... now we miss like 20% of the image...just bring the old format with locked ships on either side...
okst666 GNADE Inc. Bruderschaft der Pilger 167	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:45:00 - [9] - Quote Please deinterlace the video...that combflickering makes me want to poke my eyes out... [X] < Nail here for new monitor
Illia Vuilleurmier Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 8	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:46:00 - [10] - Quote The interface is not big. It's FUCKHUGE!!!! Eating 20 per cent of the screen with a fashy eye-burning white, there is no other way to describe it. Plus we can't see and read a damn thing when the window is reduced, you have to expand it to see what's going on. The stream seems to be slower than last year. I remember waching it in HD with no problem, this year i have to limit myself to 480, and the interface is blurry if so. And why are the colors and positions of the team inverted in the lower part in regard of the upper one? Great job CCP for making to absolutely not sensible move. I'm however very happy with the E-WAR indicators, so you guys aren't 100% wrong. But not that far.

Zastrow GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 66	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:47:00 - [11] - Quote The camera views in the old tournament were cinematic and all but didn't really show what was happening. I LOVE the information in the new scoreboard
ThisIsntMyMain Republic University Minmatar Republic 110	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:47:00 - [12] - Quote So the team in RED at the top is actually the BLUE team ? Did I get that right ? Of course - its so sensible and obvious !
subtle turtle We Reach Around Situation: Normal 10	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:47:00 - [13] - Quote okst666 wrote: Please deinterlace the video...that combflickering makes me want to poke my eyes out... QFT.
StarFleetCommander V0LTA Verge of Collapse 14	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:47:00 - [14] - Quote revert it to the AT9 way and just put the ewar next to the ship
Zloco Crendraven BALKAN EXPRESS 11	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:47:00 - [15] - Quote Well i think is very good i like following the info more than the empty space. Well and i think its big enough when 12 players are up.
Raziphan Rebular Polished Diamond Industries Vortek Federation 40	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:49:00 - [16] - Quote I'm sure they will refine it as the alliance tournament progress, please keep in mind these are just quailifying matches. I've to agree though the white makes it a bit harsh and it does seem to take up a lot of room, I think you could lose the boxes in the lower corners, other than that though I don't really mind it.
Kronossan Bellum Esca 21	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:49:00 - [17] - Quote I think the overlay covers too much of the screen as well and the stream quality sucks, it says HD but it looks more like 360p, and as previously mentioned the interlaced footage makes me want to throw up as well Bellum Esca Corporation Website // Recruitment post // Twitter // YouTube
Tiberius Patterson Cthulu Mythos 1	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:50:00 - [18] - Quote That's true. Right now, they're only utilizing half the space but when the first competition round starts, it will be filled a bit more.
Chiggy W Hard-Luck Industries 97	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:50:00 - [19] - Quote CCP implementing a bad interface? Surely you jest....... Like the new info, hate the fact it's badly designed, white and takes up to much space. Also looks like whoever is on the right is taking hull damage before shield, and Agony where listed red at the top, but blue at the bottom. Do not want/
Illia Vuilleurmier Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 8	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:52:00 - [20] - Quote Disregard post, i just can't seem to be able to hit EDIT instead of QUOTE

Yimodo Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 15:58:00 - [21] - Quote And an extra thing about the UI, I dont need to see the caster.... it just takes up screen room. Its about the spaceships shooting eachother not everything that is filling up the screen at the moment
Joe Astor Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 7	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:00:00 - [22] - Quote okst666 wrote: Please deinterlace the video...that combflickering makes me want to poke my eyes out... And perhaps change the eye-scorching white, for a darker colour.
Naomi Wildfire Mind Games. Suddenly Spaceships. 109	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:00:00 - [23] - Quote might would help if all the white stuff has a slight transparency with the background of the names and stuff being 100% black and font in white or so. that way you could still see whats going on behind the overlay.
Lugalzagezi666 44	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:01:00 - [24] - Quote Oh, so Im not the only one...
Black Panpher Tribal Liberation Force Minmatar Republic 3	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:02:00 - [25] - Quote I too am not finding it as aesthetically pleasing as the old format. I am enjoying seeing the modules used though. Is there no way of combining that with the old layout?
Joe Astor Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 7	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:06:00 - [26] - Quote And do we really need the camera switching between commentators every 10 nano-seconds? Do we need a camera on the commentators at all? They are speaking, so their voices convey their messages to the audience, we don't need to see their faces, when the tournament fighting itself is where the focus of our eyes should be. I know it sounds like, "Do we really need to have video of them on the screen?! GTFO" but do we really?

CCP Soundwave C C P C C P Alliance 1668	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:07:00 - [27] - Quote It will be a more relevant use of space once the teams are full size

Littlefat46 Viperfleet Inc. Transmission Lost 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:09:00 - [28] - Quote sorry to say but I see notting from the figth it self you can how get hit below in the screen is bad to see
Spurty D00M. Northern Coalition. 288	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:10:00 - [29] - Quote Looks fantastic on my Telly! Just been explaining all the various columns to my kids who have temporarily lost their Minecraft machine (their machine is next to the Telly so now hooked up for the tourney lol) ---- CONCORD arrested two n00bs yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off.
Zloco Crendraven BALKAN EXPRESS 11	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:12:00 - [30] - Quote The new UI is really cool but maybe as some said make it a bit transparent, or at least change the white collor.

Littlefat46 Viperfleet Inc. Transmission Lost 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:12:00 - [31] - Quote CCP Soundwave wrote: It will be a more relevant use of space once the teams are full size that was not problem last year so I find that most see small team also and not only the big teams bij this answer what you give is just small teams are better stay of the tournements
Naomi Wildfire Mind Games. Suddenly Spaceships. 109	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:13:00 - [32] - Quote CCP Soundwave wrote: It will be a more relevant use of space once the teams are full size I'm not sure if i want to see more stuff, guess like most of us we want to see the space, the fight and the bare info we need, the EW indicator is an awesome thing, but the old interface was compact, ingame related and less excel warrior like. If you watch football, would you like to see 30% of the screen covered?
Yimodo Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:14:00 - [33] - Quote CCP Soundwave wrote: It will be a more relevant use of space once the teams are full size I really believe it will, but the problem is that you can only see half of the battlefield. If the UI is on either side of the screen like it has been every year you can still see everything of the battlefield. Or do like someone else sugjested and make it transparent and make the letters white or something. Like that you still have the UI in the bottom but you can still see the battlefield.

Adding the EW for example I find super helpful in terms of finding out who is doing what.

Salpun Paramount Commerce Masters of Flying Objects 333	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:16:00 - [35] - Quote Can the camera focus be moved up 10% of the screen Please Resoution is breaking up to when zoomed in

Yeah, i already agreed with the EM Indicator, but still it would also be possible with the last years interface dont you think? Enhancements can be made without messing up the rest. Well, this could look different if you add transparency and adjust the font color, that would be similar to what i use when i am editing images or what i use ingame. Windows lose some their disturbance if you can partially see through them.
dopah Royal Slacker Inc 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:24:00 - [37] - Quote Imho the box with player info should be in the bottom lower right and left corner of the screen , its the only thing this interface has going for it .....rest of the interface can go exit as it doesnt hold any interesting info. its like a freaking annoying commercial bar on youtube, looking for the little X for taking it away lol
Andrea Roche State War Academy Caldari State 141	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:31:00 - [38] - Quote i think perhaps is best to replace the white background with transperent. This way you dont have that problem of having to make the video smaller size. Also the timer and score does not need to be that big! They can do well half its current size!

Adding the EW for example I find super helpful in terms of finding out who is doing what. Like many said, we dont mind the EW display. This is very nice to see, but the bar in the bottom is just to big so you miss a big part of the screen. If you go back to the old setup with the EW icons. An other option is making the bar in the bottom of the screen smaller, so it takes only 5-10% of the screen. You dont need the bars to be this high, if you make them as big as the target frames in EVE itself they are big enough in my opinion (same goes for the EW icons btw)
Klown Walk Fat People Lag IRL 97	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:35:00 - [40] - Quote I wish they could add cap.

dopah Royal Slacker Inc 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 16:37:00 - [41] - Quote there doesnt need to be any bar at all , i would really prefer the boxes with the ew info and names etc just to be in corners, dont need tactical overview, dont need commentator gob on screen, especially dont need blank white bar or even transparent bar in the middle ..... its distracting and makes the whole thing tiring to watch .......

You can always put a 5min delay on the stream to stop that.

Adding the EW for example I find super helpful in terms of finding out who is doing what. Having each tem display information in DIFFERENT order (mirrored) does NOT make it easy do decipher! The EW info is very nice however and a request I did to CCP for ingame like 2 years ago....still not there. Just have team blue have the same column order as team red so we don;t have to search for a minute to see any usable information and make it less dominant on the whole view! De-interlacing the footage is also a good thing to do!
Sakura Nihil Selective Pressure Rote Kapelle 13	Posted - 2012.06.30 17:08:00 - [48] - Quote It's like the inventory system - a good idea in theory, but needs refinement.

It doesn't matter how much space is filled up or not. The old UI for the tournaments is vastly superior and easier to read.
NatteFrost85 Ministry of War Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 17:18:00 - [50] - Quote atm that white status frame is way too big and takes away alot of the actual combat screen. if they could make it transparent it would be mutch better. but the old system is mutch better.

Allyria Kylari Blue asteroids 8	Posted - 2012.06.30 17:27:00 - [51] - Quote At the very least, make the display a dark grey or some other subdued tone. The glaring white just creates a terrible contrast.
El Tea Ridin' Qwerty 0	Posted - 2012.06.30 17:48:00 - [52] - Quote CCP: I LOVE the new interface. Maybe the color needs some tweaking, but overall there is so much more valuable information there to help non-experts follow what is going on. Great work! Anyone know when you see the ECM symbol if it means that the target is successfully jammed, or only if it means ECM is being applied? Tea

I liked it better when you used the bottom space to bring up a 2nd camera. Having one camera doing top view to see the whole field, while the main camera focuses on eye candy was the best. If you want the bottom screen to be handly replace video of guys face with a top down view of the battle field. Also make it transparent. I could draw up a quick design...

Linda Shadowborn Dark Steel Industries 147	Posted - 2012.06.30 18:15:00 - [55] - Quote Ok after a few fights I found out my main beef with it. It removes the natural eye state of the middle of the screen to look at the bottom where you can no longer see the ships. before with the info on the sides you still saw the action since your eyes where at the same vertical level... does my poor english make sense?

Tea Name somthing other than the EW stuff Sure. Unlike the post above (#55) , I like that the info is consolidated into one place. I concede that the view may not be optimized for Eve experts. But for those of us who don't know every ship type, having a consolidated status board with ship names and damage levels in one place lets me follow the status much better than putting the ships to the far left and right. In AT9 I had a terrible time keeping my SA. Sure, there was more of the eye candy visible, but I had a far harder time determining what that status of the fight was. This time around, that info is really keeping me on top of the match. Tea

Because you can get all the action by watching that thrasher orbiting something while fully zoomed in. Yeah... I like the new interface but id lacks the distance of each ship form the center beacon, something the old one had iirc. The mirroring looks weird at first, but you get used to it.
Tampaxita Poo Bashers 18	Posted - 2012.06.30 19:12:00 - [62] - Quote why most of you guys complain how the interface is too big (and, yes I agree) I also want to point out that it is also too small. I mean, I watch it from my sofa and I can't see anything (even though I have a 40" tv). I mean there is a bunch of information cramped onto a white background but unless you sit 30cms from your monitor you can't really understand anything. The old interface had pictures of the ships, so yeah, you could tell "look that rifter looking thing is in structure" ... now it's just "third row contains a lot of red" so yes, it's worse then last year's interface
Matariki Rain Lutinari Syndicate Electus Matari 17	Posted - 2012.06.30 19:34:00 - [63] - Quote From the sound of it, most of you can see a basically-functional stream to comment on. I'm in New Zealand. The ATX coverage comes to me as a slideshow with stuttering Wurlitzer sound. That's--briefly--making me nostalgic about the first EVE battles I watched, but it's not an effective viewing experience. Heading back to bed and planning to watch these on a delayed format.
Matariki Rain Lutinari Syndicate Electus Matari 17	Posted - 2012.06.30 19:37:00 - [64] - Quote However... Yay for streaming the qualifying rounds at all. Yay for the chance to fix infographics and presentation issues before the later rounds. (Just, please, for those of us with horrible international pings: something functional would be lovely. :) )

This is how the majority will view it and it makes sense to design an interface that provides additional interface to these viewers.

I mean there is a bunch of information cramped onto a white background but unless you sit 30cms from your monitor you can't really understand anything. The old interface had pictures of the ships, so yeah, you could tell "look that rifter looking thing is in structure" ... now it's just "third row contains a lot of red" so yes, it's worse then last year's interface noticed that aswell, with the old system you could instantly tell what happens to what ship and now you have to browse the bar for names and stuff, it lacks the overview although it should generate it.

The little icons for ship were really helpful. Maybe you should stick those ship icons NOAH made last year next to each ship name? YOu know, the cool ones that were for frigate, cruiser,battleship. Not everyone knows which ship is which above. becuase you could see a picture of each ship on each side, it was useful. Combine this new UI with something to make it easy to see which ships are which. We don't all memorize every ship name. I know which is which, but non-eve players can't remember every single ship.

Though not displaying ship icons makes the game look more like an excel game rather than a spaceship game! Also, can you make the white box info a bit bigger? I'd rather see the tactical overlay as the main window as it would show each team's tactics. Showing ships blowing up is good fun but shouldn't be prioritized over displaying tactics. Replace current webcam and tactical overlay feeds with two different close-up feeds of ships blowing up during the game? Keep up the good work! <0 Kenji

Realized quick enough though. The countdown clock keeps breaking, saw it once on a 60 minute countdown, and blank a few times. WTB new timer? When first starting the stream I've notice a bit of graphic corruption, but this clears up quick enough ( with a few seconds ) ( Firefox 13.0.1, multiple different machines. ) If you mute the sound, or have it to a almost silent level ( less than 5%? ), but not muted, when it's in fullscreen on a multi-screen setup, then click on the other screen, the feed falls out of fullscreen mode. Anyone else getting/noticed this? Related to the above, the audio sometimes seems to glitch out on the player, where you can mute it, try and increase the volume, and it won't increase, but the mute symbol indicates this is no longer muted. Clicking the mute button and then clicking to unmute seems to fix this. No mobile feed? Or am I missing something? All in all, quite enjoying the show so far

Basically what you get that's new this year is: 1) EWAR icons next to ships - Very Cool* 2) Speed of ships - Cool 3) Points cost of ships - Quite Nice 5) Lots of white space - :( 4) Webcam of commentators in bedrooms - Not Cool At All * The ECM icon shows up whenever a bunch of ECM drones are assigned to a target, or whenever an ECM module is activated on a target, regardless of whether or not there is a successful jam. I would like to see CCP fix it so that the icon only shows on successful jams - currently it is even confusing the commentators (is that a shield boosting blackbird!?) let alone the viewers. The tactical zoomed out tactical display is way too small, but I wouldn't want it to replace the main screen of srsbsns spaceship explosions. My suggestion for layout would be to ditch the webcam box, move the team info to the extreme left and right, using white or light coloured text and bars on a transparent background (ie showing mostly dark space behind) and get rid of the blank white rubbish completely. Then use the extra space created in the centre for an enlarged visual of the tactical display. Maybe periodically cut away from the action for 5-10 seconds to show the tactical display (with ship labels) full-screen.

Look at a magazine.. have you ever noticed that pictures of people generally don't show them looking off to the edge of the page? They generally are facing the center of the page.. or facing other photos. The reason for this is that it keeps your focus on the magazine and not off to the edge of the page. Something similar seems to be happening here.. your eyes don't have to travel far.. and your focus is kept centered and not running off screen. I got used to it right away.. and with the layout (ship types and EWAR icons to the center) it makes sense.
