CCP wanted to introduce 'contextual soundscapes' which is a fancy way of saying that when X happens, the music changes to one of a number of preselected tracks. Amusingly, we already had this with jukebox, and people hated it because it would interrupt their jukebox music. So they removed jukebox.
GENIUS!

It seems that CCP is giving us the big middle finger on this, based on the new eden sound-box item that is, I believe, one of the upcoming event items.

CSM two step has responded via tweets to our request:
"No. Use one of the many available music players. It is dumb for CCP to spend time making a music player. "
Wow, are our elected officials clueless or just ignorant?

Forget about the jukebox, just silence the EVE music and use whatever media player you use normally.
Yeah, The POS thread got off to a slow start too.
In 2006.
But.... we'll just push this beast along however long it takes. We finally got them to admit that POS had issues... only however many years and +1's later.
I'm patient.

CCP RealX wrote:Hi, I want to thank you all for taking time to give this matter you attention. We (meaning the CCP sound department) are monitoring this thread closely and take all opinions into consideration. I hope you don't think we made this decision lightly. First, some back story. As many of you know that used the jukebox it was quite buggy and we got a lot of negative feedback regarding its use, it didn't measure up to other media players, it didn't support this or that codec etc. The jukebox works as a plugin to our audio engine (Audio Kinetics WWise) and was based on a now deprecated Microsoft MP3 decoder that was used as an example on how to build plugins for the WWise engine. As mentioned in the blog these were the biggest issues that factored into the removal the jukebox. We believe we made the right decision but that is for EVE's community to decide. If we however made the wrong decision and you decide that we will put the jukebox back into the game, it will happen at the cost of adding new game-play related features. And I ask you all to weigh that into your thoughts on the matter. The jukebox needs a lot of love, and if we will give it all the love that it needs it will take development time away from game-play related features. If you decide that there is more value for you in the jukebox than there is in new features we will shift our focus back to the jukebox. Regards, RealX
RealX, the fact this thread rolls on would suggest, despite some rather pathetic attempts to troll it, that he Eve Community wants it back.
I like how you suggest that it would come at the cost of unspecified 'game play' features, as, with the exception of the upcoming Winter Expansion, the last several expansions have been primarily about fixing and re balancing the existing screw ups. I'll also add that, in a nutshell, doing anything more complicated then following a tutorial proved too difficult? You do know there are available codecs now that can be added as a plugin that support... well, pretty damn near everything. How old is the version of WWise you're using? 1.0?
I will add, to the guy with the steam engine comparison, you might laugh, but this actually happened in Peru and Chile. Because the diesel engines that replaced them had insufficient power to get the train up the mountain side. Steam engines gain horsepower as altitude increases.
However, your comparison is fail, as in this case, it's more along the lines of the Mechanic gives you your car back without your car stereo in it.

Reading the patch notes: here's something I noticed:
The Devs had the time to waste on something as useless as integrating twitch.tv into eve, but putting the jukebox back in would just take too much time. Don't they have external players for that?

Dev/GM/CCP employee can you actually *please* see this thread and not just ignore it?
I started it months ago and its still rolling.
Come on guys, at least acknowledge it and formulate a response.
CCP? Respond to an issue? That would be a first. We're still waiting for a fix to POS.... and have been since at least 2006.
Unless your thread is limited to how 'awesum!' Eve Online is, ISD will lock the thread.-á You will find it is particularly common if CCP might have to make a public response to the thread subject, as opposed to bury it in the GM que for the forseeable future and then prohibit telling anyone what the GM said, if it's ever answered at all. |

LOL CCP will not address any issue not sponsored by Goonswarm flooding the forums with threads.
As i said before, this will just keep going a few complaints at a time for years before they intruduce an "all new never before seen in an MMO feature" of being able to pick your own music in game.

POS getting overhauled took five years to make it to 50. and it's a major issue. There's also been about a dozen other threads demanding it back, this is just the longest running one. |
