They look fantastic! Little tweaks on the timing etc and they'd look sleek as hell.

The jump out effect is pretty good (can't beat the old effect but is a HUGE leap from the current bs we got now). Just need to fix the orientation of the light to make sure it comes from the front side and not some random direction.
The jump in just looks stupid and the light flash is way over done and not needed. I would rather see the lighting cone/storm the "main" effect then the red light. Just make the storm the size of the red flash and more intense (thicker lighting). Then change the red light to be roughly the size of the ship. |

it's decent. a good improvement over the current one, but still behind the old one.
now they only need to time it a bit better, and make covert cynos different.

Call me crazy but I think the red offshoot is the ship itself firing off to the destination. The systems I used in the video (if the default landing point orientation is a compass for direction) appear to be factored in the direction it shoots off. |

They look pretty good but the jump in flash seems a bit excessive. It looks like the ships are exploding. |

Well... it certainly "announces" the arrival of a capital... but I like the old "cone effect" better.
Still... a big step up from the "blorp" effect we have now so get gets a +1 from me.

It's definitely awesome. :)

I like it. It is not the old effect but it will do.
As for the jump in, I'd like the appearance of a jump in to be similar to a wormhole for the whole impression that you are looking into a different star system.

Timing is definitely a bit off and they could use more lightning IMO, but overall it's pretty good.
Old cyno still looks better, though. |

It would be awesome if they add that godrays effect (like in the incursions) for the moment of that big flash.

The only thing I'd like to see improved is the order at which things take place - right now it's:
ship appears -> flash
where it should be
flash -> ship appears
So the ship becomes visible after the maximum amplitude of the flash starts to fade...
well according to what physical law you assuming your timing is right one ?
I mean the one given could be right one too .. ship appears causes change of energy flow with following effect of energy explosion.
Dont know i am not physicist but for me its matter of opinion and your own perception of what looks right and what wrong ..
Just curious how it would look for the covops pilot to open cyno for titan bridge with 700+ BS and support fleet.. well i know its old school but one can hope that battleships become the main firepower. |

My honest opinion.
Far better than the place holder, with a good 'oomph' behind it, but still doesn't hold a candle to the old one's style.
The cone of lightning was f'ing sweet.
To be better, I'd suggest doing the reverse of the jump out animation, having a beam of light fly in towards the ship. |

The jumpdrive opens a spacial rift the ship then jumps through - assuming the light and flashes represent that spacial rift, it would make sense to jump when the rift is at its maximum. It should also be accompanied by a loud 'Swoosh' sound, because we all know that's how rifts sound (due to the doppler effect).

The new effects are pretty good, not half as bad as I was expecting from the comments. Is there sound? I remember I miss the BOOM sound effect most from the old jump animation. |

Better than what we have now, but could use more blue lightning and the animation of the ship appearing needs work. It appears to quickly, and I feel it is at the wrong time in the sequence. |

The ships appearing before the light is an easy fix... probably caused in part by server and client lag.
What's the bet that CCP wont spend 30 seconds to impliment a delay on the actual ship appearing to allow for the flash to happen first? |

bring on the new particle system that was promised in 2007.
That nos effect they demo'd at the fanfest was awesome and much more up with the latest graphics available in games.
These all look like DX7/8 effects with a single dx10 effect over the top (the bubble effect), although not terrible i guess.

There's an even easier/lazier fix which doesn't involve messing with player positions, session timers, jumping delays, etc.
Simply add a huge, obscuring flash at the moment the ship appears. Implosion-charing-effect/explosion-blinding-flash/whatever. As long as it starts large enough to hide the ship then all's good  .
I hope that the issue is addressed one way or another, though. |

It's my understanding that the old Cyno effect, in which a VORTEX OF LIGHTNING APPEARED AND THE SHIP WAS THROWN FROM IT, was awesome.
This new thing, even when they get the timing down, can in no way surpass that sort of epicness. Why you can't tell your effects artist to just recreate 'That old one, but updated' is beyond me. That's what the players want. Do you learn NOTHING? Do you not LISTEN? Do you not understand that bringing back a much-requested feature, much as you have done with hangar view, would give you a lot of credit with us?
Criticism of the new effect itself: It's really pretty good. Just not as good as swirling lightning from which demi-gods pop forth. |
