Please count me in as well. I really miss the jukebox!
I had a custom playlist for myself, due to there being a couple tracks that I had trouble listening to.
CCP: Please bring the jukebox back. Allowing players more options is always preferable to limiting options. |

It doesnt need to be accepted, its already been done.
You may find it funny but that is, in one massive nut-shell, what is wrong with the current CSM and CCP's stance on players views on the game. You, as a CSM member, are here to represent us, the players, on what we think makes or breaks the game. There are many, many long-term players leaving the game due to the ignorance of CCP and CSM members pretending that the views of the players are insignificant and can simply be ignored.
What will it take for our views to be seen, for us to be taken seriously? A subscription peak of 40K? 30K? 20K? This petition has been active for over a week, and you, CSM Alek, are the first one to provide us with any kind of official acknowledgement on the forums.
Its an absolute disgrace. The first acknowledgement we get is taunting from a CSM member. Like I said, in a nut-shell that is everthing that is wrong with this situation. |

Maybe it's histrionic because that's the only way that gets anybody's attention at all anymore. If a large number of people (and I'm not just talking about the people in this thread, there have been scores of people in help chat complaining about the missing jukebox) want a feature back that was recently removed, don't they at least deserve a decent response from the committee that's supposed to be advocating player interests?
I get that CCP removed the jukebox because it was old and ****** code, but you can't just remove a feature lots of people use and not offer a reasonable replacement without upsetting these people. How hard would it have really been to code a new MP3 player? -áObjects in mirror aren't as red as they appear. |

At the same time, why bother? Look at this thread - 10 days going, less than 80 people feeling this issue is serious enough to warrant action. And yet there's overly arrogant dares to "ignore" this issue followed up by petulant rage when a single CSM member says "ok". Calling this a tempest in a teacup is an insult to both tempests and teacups. "Look any reason why you need to talk like that? I have now reported you. I dont need to listen to your bad tone.

I feel i likely speak for the majority of players when i say the following
I knew there was a jukebox, im fairly sure the last time i clicked on it was a number of years ago. if i dont want to listen to the ingame music i turn the music volume slider down. if want to listen to my own music i use one of the MANY free available players (i.e. winamp, spotify etc etc)
If you only want to listen to certain in game tracks they're on spotify.
Additionally CCP have stated the reason for the removal of the jukebox iirc it was basically legacy coding from the launch of eve, coding which they are currently going through removing and updating. If a feature is no longer widely used (jukebox) it is not worth the man hours recoding it, hours which can be better spent on improving quality of life in the game
tl;dr - Get over yourself, the majority don't care about the lack of jukebox or your argument |

Its a fair statement to say the majority dont care about the JukeBox.
But this isnt about the majority is it? It's about a substantial number of players, and no matter how you wrap it up, there is a significant number of players that want it back - A lot dont know about this thread, and you can't spam in help chat which is where a lot of complaints are.
Should a minority suffer ofer the majority's choice? Isn't that the problem that society faces as a whole? Without this thread going onto a society based argument, its fair to say that each person has their own view and that as we are all patrons of this company, paying customers, all our views are valid.
Your points are fair, they are also valid - but they have been addressed by many players in earlier posts.
Not to mention this is also now about how we are treated as paying customers as well as CCP removing a good feature.
Regarding encoding - The music exists in exactly the same format as it did when the JukeBox existed, CCP simply removed the GUI. As I have stated in the first post and subsequent posts - the method of playing music is crud, it doesnt work. Another example of CCP implementing something about proper prior testing, and when players speak out about how crap it actually is, they ignore it. |

I wasnt refering to the encoding of the music, i was referring the actual coding behind the jukebox itself (iirc CCP explorer made a comment on this in the retribution feedback thread)
I will admit to being surprised by the number of players upset about the removal of the jukebox, but i dont feel its is a significant minority of players. I would imagine some of the players may not have even known about the jukebox until threads protesting about its removal started to pop up.
I wouldnt class the jukebox as a good feature, it was an underused extra no doubt required when it was first launched to provide music to the game, the changes in retribution i feel have actually improved on this situation.
Generally though i would consider we are well treated by CCP in terms of the amount and type of feedback we receive both on here and through twitter, this treatment and interaction has improved massively since i started playing 4 years ago and is something ive not seen from other MMOs
I will accept that some people want it back, but surely you would rather they continued to improve and introduce new features, ships and improve the general running of the game? (war against lag etc etc)
edit: I will however agree the CSM (Alex) response in this thread is far from helpful to the situation, a simple "this will be brought up at the summit" rather than "challenge accepted" regardless of whether it was made in a light hearted manner or not. |

Unfortunatly this thread has gone way off-topic, which of course I have caused to a certain extent as well.
The JukeBox was a good thread and enjoyed by many, but there are bugs with the new music system, really annoying bugs. Return the GUI for the JukeBox and fix the new system, job done - much less whining, much less bitching.
Happy people :) |

10 days and 7 pages of pissy bitching shouldn't be enough to make a dev turn their computer on, let alone do anything. Maybe next time pick a less ridiculous idea to get behind.

Well, I don't really care about the Jukebox, though I did use it fairly regularly to pick tracks that I was in the mood for.
However, having said that, it doesn't make much sense to remove a feature that you already spent time working on. The maintenance argument doesn't really ring true to me at all. What kind of maintenance do you need on a working feature that is separate from all other features?
I'm really having difficulty remembering any game developer, after spending time on a feature and that feature being in the game for many years, to just remove it altogether, and claiming that it is redundant because a 3rd party can do it? Further, if you are removing the jukebox, why not remove the notepad and calculator within EVE as well? Both of those are implemented within most operating systems by default.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that it doesn't make much sense, logically, to just boom and remove it. |

I think you'll find you're always going to struggle to make sense of something when you dismiss the given reason "just because". "Look any reason why you need to talk like that?

from what i remember there was talk about the notepad and calculator going as well due to the same issue. my understanding of the tech issue was it would take more effort than it was worth to update it to the level the rest of the coding ingame than it merited. Especially as they where changing how the music was interacting with the game. You would have to hunt out ccp explorers post on the issue though |

I have difficulty believing that people are this incredibly stupid.
Then again, this is the melting pot of EvE... where even the mentally challenged are allowed to post.
The reasons for removal were clear and concise, the alternatives simple and spelled out for you.
Move along. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Thread hijack.
Let's bring this back to topic as we may now have a dev reading, and hopefully responding.
The current dynamic music player is a good idea in theory, but it's really buggy. Will CCP reinstate the JB until it is fixed?
Its dull being in null and the only 'music' available on the dynamic music player is sound effects that sound like a whale being rapedq

I'll be honest. The lack of a Jukebox has made no differnce to me what so ever. I like the new dynamic music, though I was hoping for all new stuff, not a mish-mash of the old playlist. Oh well.
If you don't want to listen to the current music, just go into the audio options and set the music volume to '0'.
If you want to listen to your own music, Windows Media Player works fine, as do many other music programs designed for the job.
If you have more than one window open, then you will only have one of them playing music anyway, otherwise you end up with 2 or even 3 different tracks playing at once.
Why take resources away from keeping EvE running smoothly and developing new and amazing things to blow people up with for the sake of adding a tool that mimicks a peice of software that is already built into just about every PC anyway?
If CCP put out a survey asking "Do you want the Jukebox back? Yes, No or Don't care" I am more than confident that the majority woulod say the don't care, followed by No. MODULAR DRONES

CSM is spot on. Eve is not an operating system, and thus does not need an on demand music player. Running an actual music player in the background is trivial, and it gives you more features, better specialized support, and free CCP from writing a feature completely tangential to the core game.
A music player belongs in Eve as much as a spreadsheet app does: not at all. It would simply use up developer time delivering a feature that could never compete with pre-existing out of game tools. That is why whining about it is dumb. Rifterlings - small gang frigate PvP - low/nullsec operations, newbie-friendly, free ship program; Join today! www.rifterlings.com
