Sassums Wormhole Exploration Crew R.E.P.O. 52	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:21:00 - [32] - Quote Why are we switching from the nice square icons to these new circle icons? With the square ones you can easily distinguish how much shield damage the target has, armor damage, and finally structure damage. With the new circle system I can't figure out which bar indicates which part of the ship. IE: Shield, armor, and structure. Please shed some light on this change or make it easier to distinguish which is which.

Myxx Minmatar Death Squad Broken Chains Alliance 608	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:22:00 - [34] - Quote If anything, I'd like to have an at-a-glance popup next to what I'm targeting displaying relevant info, ala many trailers such as like here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q62Wk3xWH8g&t=1m10s

PinkKnife L F C Ethereal Dawn 252	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:23:00 - [36] - Quote Karl Planck wrote: rofl, my first got deleted. Damn you ccp ninja skills Edit: So a few things. First, in the new UI you show how the both the raven and the avatar are locked. On the Titan it shows the shield and armor and hull indicators with corresponding damage. However on the raven it is only a single bar that has full shield (which is correct) but no notification on the armor and hull damage. Is this because the raven is not the active target? If this is correct could we get it so that all targets show the full damage layout? That is the ewar time on the Raven, instead of the normal bar, it is also displayed as the circle graph...I caught this from a simple glance. <.< +1 to ALL OF THIS. THIS IS AWESOME AND I LOVE YOU. The UI needs massive updates and this looks fantastic. There will be some people who don't like change, as always, but I think it is glorious. Now can I have drones redone please? Pretty please? Just the UI part, it is super awful terribad.
Squeaks Seniors Clan Get Off My Lawn 0	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:23:00 - [37] - Quote This looks pretty good... it's building up to the stuff we see in the trailers which would be excellent!

In that case, I strongly prefer that you don't implement the HP bars around the ship icon; I don't see how it won't increase the amount of eye movement needed to identify the current status of a targeted ship. A demand for increased eye movement (and thus effort to read the same information) while it occupies the same amount of screen real-estate is a downgrade, not an upgrade.
Arienne Deveraux Suddenly Ninjas Tear Extraction And Reclamation Service 12	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:26:00 - [42] - Quote While we're at it, any chance of more distinguishable target brackets, especially for Destroyer through Battlecruiser classes?

What will other's drones look like that hit me? What bout ships I do not have targeted hitting me, what will they look like?

MIrple BSC LEGION Tactical Narcotics Team 143	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:26:00 - [44] - Quote I like the changes that are being implemented. A few questions. You have addressed that ships that shoot you will have a red burst to it. What about ships that are applying ECM type items. Will there be a way to see at a glance which ones are applying this? The second would be could there be a minimalist targeting window something similar to the watch list that we could use. This would take up less space and improve my immersion. TY

Riffix Synergistic Arbitrage 43	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:27:00 - [47] - Quote Maybe it's not a huge deal to people, but I always thought it was lame that the damage TYPE being done was not clearly displayed. Especially for new people who might not even understand that there are damage types. But it would be good to know what type of damage is mostly being done. It might help you decide how to refit, fit in the future, or whether to run or fight. Also, I think if you are going to be updating situational awareness, I would like to see something that tells the player what type of ship is out there. My vote is to stop using generic brackets and use an icon that represents ship type. That way when you see a cluster of ships you can know almost immediately what type of fight you might have on your hands. Lead, Follow, or Get the #@$!@ Out of the Way.

The yellow lock, and red aggro isn't so changed (shape a bit) This is still under work, so it is NOT going to be exactly this when it comes out. We want to get your feedback and try it out on public Test servers so we can make it better. CCP Sisyphus \| Team PE \| @CCP_Sisyphus

The avatar and one raven are already locked. The raven that is locked has no damage notifications on it. The raven that is being locked has a grey bar at roughly 25% of the full circle, which is confusing because in the other image the lock timer has just started (15 sec). It isn't ewar i believe, its the lock timer which is slightly confusing considering there are two ravens. Low-sec Best-sec

Why try to reinvent the wheel on something that, tbh, isn't broken? It could use improvement, but i dont think this is the way to go about it. If anything, a transparent window next to my target in space when I'm targeting them or being targeted would be appreciated. The box and three bars work perfectly fine as is. Just put up next to the target. No need for the sphere.

What CCP karkur said. The code would very soon become entangled and messy unless we refactor and remove the old system. We want to get this right and we don't want to maintain two separate systems.

Shang Fei The Illuminatii Mildly Intoxicated 35	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:32:00 - [55] - Quote I like the new aggro, target, in range and this mombo jumbo, the hit thingie is neat aswell. However I do not like the round target thingie in the picture above it. It's hard to read what's what and it looks fine the way it is. edit: what i meant to say in the above sentence was i dislike having the hp bars in a circle around the portrait I think it's more easily read the way it is now with them under eachother, the same way as they are under eachother in "layers" on ur ship and on ur HUD with the capacitor and all that good stuff...

Gilbaron Free-Space-Ranger Ev0ke 366	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:33:00 - [58] - Quote one thing i would love: do not give percentage values but "absolute" ones (EHP) for shield, armor and hull, so when i have someone targeted i can see how he is tanked, a huuuuge shield bar and a small armor bar might make me switch to some EM ammunition...
The Bazzalisk Teshnology Inc. Stealth Wear Inc. 21	Posted - 2012.10.10 20:33:00 - [59] - Quote Targeting circles look like change for the point of change and will just clutter up the screen when locking up many targets and being zoomed out a lot. Don't bother. Same for the 'in targeting range' things. Change for the point of change is worthless.
