Edited by: Exar Kuun on 20/01/2011 15:05:38 i finally made a character.
I took four portrait pictures and was going to use the first one, but somehow i ended up with the last when i saved the portraits..
Now i have to pay 10$ to switch portraits?
WTF..
EDIT: At least they`re doing something about it http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1451716

Everyone will be allowed to swap and modify soon(tm) as MANY people have this issue.
Patience friend! Best regards, Apollo Gabriel

Ye, i did the same mistake. I dont know why, but i thought, that those 4 pictures i will be able to use later, when i want to change my picture... and then discovered, that i cant use other 3 pictures. So now im stuck with picture, wich i made just for experiment with light etc.

You do realize a tiny portion of any games' population reads forums right? If in game documentation is weak, go to the forums isn't an excuse.

What about: "It's noted on the login screen, so you should read it before complaining"? EDIT: typo

Presumably no-one actually logs in either, since it's on the splash screen as well.

To some of the posters here:
Look, trolling is fun. God knows I do it on ocassion. But sometimes, when hundreds (possibly thousands, who knows?) of players are having the same issue, STFU with the "ZOMG nub reed duh logyn skreen!!!1111!!1!"
Turn it down a notch. Trolling when funny = win. Trolling just to show the forums what an ******* you are = sad.

That was after the fact when most of the damage was done. Although for OP it should have been promptly available.
But this doesn't excuse CCP releasing alpha status software i.e. the new creator. Without proper documentation and only a small question mark added very late in beta was all the info that was available beforehand. How hard would it have been for a brief tutorial on the main parts, the community should not be the responsible one to document everything essential to the game. Lazy and uncoordinated.
And why even lock the portrait as a one shot deal anyways? Isn't the character allowed to evolve? How is the new player going to know exactly he's going to a pirate designing an ebil character and found out he likes manufacturing more and feels that the initial character portrait doesn't represent him at all anymore? The CCP servers were able to handle the initial rush of creating avatars for most of the population in a small time-frame so limiting portrait changes is as old an idea as the old avatars themselves. Unless this is indeed tied to some ebil microtransaction agenda.... |

I also thought the 4 snapshots were going to be like a little photo album that I could pick and chose from at will. This isn't the snapshot I would have chose if I had known what was up. Should't have to read the stickies all the time to not fall for shady game mechanics.
It's obvious that for most players the portrait part is very unclear that only one, the last pic is used.
Mabey this was staged to sell some portrait swaps and it blew up in their face because to many people fell for it and there was too much of an uproar.

It wasn't on the login screen when masses of people screwed up their portraits.

It's not the last photo taken, it's the photo you have highlighted when you press save. |
