+1 for its annoying to have to re-hide the scan after every undock or jump. It's also very annoying that you can't move around or resize the columns in the scan window anymore. I don't really care how far away it is, what scan group, or group it is all I need to see is type and ID. Please give back the ability to move and resize the column's so I can expand the ones I want to fully see and hide the rest off the right side out of view.

The scan signatures cover up other celestials in space. So if I'm chasing down someone and he warps off and I try to hover my mouse over the celestial they warped to all I see is a scan site thing that covers it up... and they get away....

You know, I usually like to be productive... but it still amazes me the capacity for people in this game to whine about absolutely (*&^ing everything. It's 2 seconds when you enter a system. If it bothers you, blink

My two cents: I've was happy to see the overlay animation when it was launched and now it's just part of the game. I see it when I need it and don't see it when I don't need it. I do, however, love the sensor overlays and the scan animation itself helps remind me it's coming.
I say leave it as is.
And the point on the font is a wonderful one. I much like the newer font than the old one. |

Perhaps CCP's thinking is, "If we do not force, errr include this option to everyone, then what exactly does this expansion have to offer them?"
Maybe if CCP played their own game, then maybe they would notice how asinine these graphical effects are affecting players' gaming. |

While I have no issue with the new animation; automatic scanning on every undock and jump gate is a little too much, IMO.
I'd rather see it mapped to a button similar to D-Scan.
Also, the red 'wormholes in space' anom icons should be re-worked to make them more subtle - if they are to be kept on the overlay. |

I like it ..
Adds a degree of immersion for me.
The colour is subdued, and doesn't overpower the display/ui
The things identified are easily ignored, if you don't want to access them, and they are displayed in a way that doesn't clutter up the overview.
These forum's have degenerated a lot recently.
There's too much crying over inconsequential and trivial things.

When i don't explore, i don't explore.
I don't need big red advertisements in my space or a skipped animation each jump.
Automated things are bad. We already have the button, juste make it turn the thing OFF. |

I've not had any issues with this cool overlay. ALso what FLASH? It looks like a system sweep to me.

No issues ? do you live in null? are you forced to look at blobs and blobs of icons covering the stars so you cannot sort the celestials out from the anoms and sigs.....
Still awaiting an off button for this.

It's not a new font, it's an intrusive and annoying feature tht we should be able to choose whether we want it or not. Those tht like it, great, those who don't shouldn't have it forced on them.
Same goes for the new sounds. Ever since the patch i'm playing without sound... needles to say i'm not gonna pay for 4 accounts to play with no sound and an annoying overlay popping up every time i jump or undock.
Seriously all this could so easely be avoided by giving people the choice. But tht seems to be something you refuse to learn.
Really bummed out with what you guys been doing lately and tht's a damn shame because i loved this game. Just seems to be going downhill with the last few patches/ "expansions" |

There's a difference between "gah! change bad, go back! ... nm, this is better" and "Ooh, neat effect! ... Hmm. ... Oh not a-freaking-gain". The second is very much my experience with the scan sweep. I've been moving a lot of stuff around lately, and to my hauler alt, the shiny signatures blinking in and out are completely irrelevant.
Now, if some dscan information were integrated in this sweep, and I could see a hint of a blob of battleships offgrid in the proximity of the gate, I would _never_ turn it off, even if I'd have to take the cosmic signatures with the information I actually want. |

Seriously, CCP should just bring back the Second Genesis client and let people play on that if they don't like the updates. All the old textures and all the old everything. It'll stop so much needless complaining. Except that then they'd complain that development of new stuff has slowed down because CCP needs to do extra work catering to their demands. |

Just like the nausea-inducing new jump animation, this has to be optional. With a checkbox.
CCP, you did it right with the nausea-inducing camera tracking: there is a checkbox for that, and I don't see anyone complaining. I am sure there are people who actually like it.
Please do the same to the scan animation and jump animation. They are distracting, especially when multi-boxing.
To all "apologists" in the thread: if you like the animations, or want to buy a new GPU every time there is an EVE patch - good for you! For the rest of us, choice cannot be a bad thing. |

2 weeks later and it's still an issue, for me anyway. On a 15 jump trip right now with an annoying scan flashing every jump. I've also done some PVP recently and have to agree with what others have posted here; it's very distracting when you are trying to make quick decisions in fleet. Just give us an option already.... please?

I seem to remember a certain "on-board ship scanner" that used to come with a button to manually order your ship to start scanning. This would allow for you to scan when you actually want to look for things, only with the new, fast, Odyssey system range scan instead of the old 8 AU one. |

So when someone tinkers with something you absolutely love and turn it into an annoying experience, you should just keep your mouth shut and grin and play? Sorry, but I'm no sheep. Things keep moving in the direction of flash and I'll walk, but I'm at least going to resist negative changes and try to reason with CCP, because I do love this game.
Text based EVE? Right. It's more that I think those of us are looking to preserve or push for better graphical content. This overlay that looks like a particle effect doesn't improve the graphics, it's just flash and to some of us very irritating. If anything, I'd push for better background/ship textures rather than the kind of effects that clutter up most MMO's. One of the major appeals of EVE is that it isn't full of this visual garbage. |

What scan animation?
My mind put that on ignore about 3 days after it came out. No help from CCP required.
Perhaps if you didn't focus 100% of your attention on seeing it every time you undock or come out of a jump, you'd get over it.
