How exactly are you playing EVE up until now with your tracking camera enabled and not getting motion sickness, but you only do it now?

Actually the Tracking Camera was in before Odyssey...it came with Retribution.

There are obvious frame rate spikes with the new jumping effect (and also undocking). My PC is no slouch but turn on the frame rate monitor with ctrl+F and see if the game is significantly dropping frames during the animation. Low frame rates in games can make anyone get headaches or slight motion sickness. This is heightened by the fast animation through a tunnel. When a person gets motion sickness while driving a car, there are symptoms such as if there are rows of trees on either side of the row, it will start to look like a slide show. I'm pretty sure this has a relation to low frame rates in games visibly simulate motion sickness, and can cause it by this affect. Another note is the ear is in tune with what the eye sees. The sound effects for traveling through the jump gates is smooth while the visuals are not. It must be mentioned that no one has said anything about undocking. The first couple seconds of undocking I notice frames dropping as well. I'm not a game designer so I don't know what is causing this or how to improve it but this is surely one of the reasons why people are getting headaches/nausea.

I for one love the automatic camera and jump animation. It definitely seems like getting to the next system is quicker. I find myself going a few jumps and before I realize it I'm at the destination. Also having the automatic camera makes it easy for me to look at things in space that are on my overview by clicking them, instead of waving around the mouse trying to find stuff. However I understand why some people are getting motion sickness. On my older machine I tried running 2 clients across 2 1080p monitors which was rendering similar to 4 full-screen clients at the same time. It didn't pan out the way I wanted because going through warp the frame rate was not smooth and caused me to feel sick. This is similar to what the new jump animation does.

I'm happy with the changes and additions but it must be noted the frame rate drop during undocking and jumping sequences.

My specs are i7-2600 @ 3.4GHz 8 GB DDR3 RAM 180GB SSD NVidia GTX 650 Ti BOOST SuperClocked

The frame rate stutters several times through jump tunnels and also noticeable after undocking. Main reason why some people don't notice the frame rate drop is because of the high speed of the animation in the tunnel. Once you notice it's very obvious.

Just been on SiSi and the post-jump camera pan back to the gate has now gone. Not sure if this is going to stay obviously this is the TEST Server but it's promising.

EDIT: With Tracking enabled it does pan back to the gate you came through though.

...I am just.. ..so.. UNDERWHELMED with you people.

The post-jump camera pan has been "gone" for weeks now. Right after people started complaining about it on the test server, which was right after the new jump sequence went on the test server, they made it be linked to the tracking camera instead of being part of the jump sequence.

...It has been that way on TQ since day one of the official release of Odyssey. I can't help it if your tracking camera somehow got turned back on. Mine didn't, so I don't know what happened to you.

With regards to "how should we know this", you can learn an awful lot if you poke around on the forums a little bit. Very very little of the information that exists to be had is spoonfed to you by way of ingame announcements with links and login banners.

Have people seriously sunk low enough as to come up with something like this in an effort to combat a change they do not like.

The camera tracking has been in the game for something along the lines of 6 months.... if it truly bothered you, you would have turned it off already. If odyssey magically turned it back on..... turn it off.

Problem solved. You are welcome.
