Current new splash screen
It will likely change more in the next month but what happened to spaceships? It's pretty and all but the last expansions sounded vicious and filled with destruction... But what have we been shown before we log? Asteroids. I think Incarna (of all expansions) was the last "oo neat" one. Then Crucible was so-so, then they lost it again to almost static space.
Was at-least expecting the new destroyers. Like a Daredevil undocking and flying off screen then the new minmitar destroyer warps in and fires salvos of rockets in that direction off screen. Then aligns and warps in the same direction. (then 40 seconds later the destroyer is on fire and trying to dock with a weapons timer) |

x10 bigger stations, but do not increase the docking range (Where's that EBIL EMOTE GONE?)

Your right! So we see rocks and a station. Does the expansion have changes to rocks? Does the expansion have changes to stations? Make the splash screen represent the expansion. |

I would different sized of stations like real docks.
Not every Navy Port is Battleship capable or could house a Nimitz.
But yeah stations should be bigger for the amount of ships they can hold. Jita 4-4 must literally be a Tardis. |

People used to complain on the forums that the splash screen would have a certain racial ship while the previous splash screen had a different racial ship and how CCP is being unfair to whatever race did not get a ship on a splash screen for so many expansions. So it seems CCP has taken the path of least resistance and put no ships on the screens.
But CCP could mix up the variety of rocks on the screen! |

Agree that stations should be much larger.
Back on topic: I think that using the new Tempest model would make for a very dramatic splash screen :) |

That is called marketing. The gaming realm on the whole tends to expect a different "face" for each expansion. |

Very valid view. that and keeping it racially neutral to avoid complains seem like ok reasons.
I however like it when more things are happening. If the splash isn't too bright like inferno, I'd ctrl-f9 and make it a screen saver.

They do their marketing on the web with completely different art that actually showcases whats added in the expansion. If you are already at the log-in screen they already have you. |

Marketing is more than just attraction; there is also a retention aspect through visual appeal. Trial accounts and whatnot.
But whatever. I admire the new splash screens for 30 seconds on the first login, and from there on out I ignore it. They simply have no impact on my actual game play. |

A bit off topic, but besides the Gallente dancers, other "mature" aspects of the game have been phased down or subtly removed?
- Perhaps it is a coincidence, but any time a high sec combat site or mission has a drug drop, custom agents suddenly appear at all the gates.
- Prostitutes are not listed on the market - "a bad woman."
- The angle of Minmatars being (ex) slaves to the Amarrians has been pushed aside.
And back to splash screens and theme music, while this was not a part of Incarna as noted on this Youtube clip but Red Moon Rising if the old memory still works, if there was one theme music you just stopped and listened before joining the game, this has to be it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyZ2BZzrTK0
Alright, the forums still will not let me link properly - sorry about that. |
