2 points that are not so good in the expansion.
1 - Calendar entry point location.
The entry point is in the hours, in the left down corner of the screen. For the people that play in window mode and have the window with the size of the screen, this area in window in not visible!!!! is always hidden because the toolbar of the window on the top pushed the window down.
The result is that I not even know I had a calendar inside the game until my corp mate ask me why I didn't accept the meeting request and told me where that is. Since it is out of the mouse range and the window cannot be pushed up, because windows doesn't allow, I had to change to full window, press the button, and put it back to window mode...
this will be something I will not do in the future, so that window/functionality will not be used by me since I can't see it/access it in window mode! After some conversations, I discovered that half my corp mates also have the same problem... since we all play with alts, with 2 monitors we have to play in window mode... so calendar will be a almost dead feature to us, we cannot use what we cannot see!
2 - Eve gate. Concept is good, almost everything good, just one disapointment, the corp chatter is something that is not usable like we all expect (me and corp mates).
When we seen the chatter we expect it was a window to the corp chat inside the game... wrong!
only people inside eve gate can see it, so if I'm in eve gate and my corp mates inside the game there is no communication between us, because they do not have eve gate open...
it doens't make sense to have it open while playing, so we continue to not talk and that makes that chat a almost dead area of conversation... I said "I guys, anybody there", I got and answer back 3 hours later, when someone login in to gate and said "hello"... I wasn't login anymore...
Its not a forum, it is not a real chatter, what it is? Just interconnect it with the game corp chat and make everybody happy or transform it in a real forum and also make everybody happy, just get of the gray area please.
