Hi,
As the subject says it, I want to bring this topic to attention. Maybe some of you know this. You can google it for explanation if not.
Today, I traveled through many gates. And the longer I stared at the screen the more I get sick and headache. For the first time since I play EVE Online. I searched for explanations and remember to have read something about Motion Sickness in combination with PC games. I had to close EVE Online because I could not see this steady order of shaking warp travel, new jumping effect and automatic camera alignment of the objects (I shut this down) and by the jump effect itself anymore. The game becomes too unsteady in my opinion.
I believe CCP did not recognized the possibility of this problem and exaggerated the dramatical effect a little bit. If they put too much light effects and shaking cameras movements and so on into the game, I think people who play the game for more hours get similar problems at the long run.
I think it is very important to discuss this or whether there are others with similar problems and make investigations on this. It can not be denied that modern games with their increasing special effects and the perception of them have influences on our bodies.

I agree. I have not personally experienced any motion sickness, but I find the warp shaking effect very jarring and physically disorienting (not in-game disorienting). Different people will be affected in different ways, and so I think it is important to always have backup solutions. Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander. Get in the Squad Commander or Wing Commander position. Your fleets will be superior to everyone else's. |

Two out of three of those are options. The third is a slow swing which shouldn't induce motion sickness in anyone who doesn't have an actual disability. And while those people have my sympathy, designing a game around disabilities.... seems against Eve's HTFU policy. |

Absolutely wrong, CCP is very willing to work with people who have actual disabilities. What they don't like are people who can deal with it and don't want to because they are selfish sissies who want the rest of the world to bend over backward for their own comfort. That's what HTFU is all about. Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander. Get in the Squad Commander or Wing Commander position.

Camera shake can be turned off under Display & Graphics in the escape menu, however I can understand how the camera alignment could cause motion sickness for some people. Perhaps an option that remove the aligning and just jumps the camera behind the stargate would help? |

I'm getting some serious motion sickness off the new stargate and jump bridge animations due to the forced camera rotation and warp tunnel effects. It's already to the point where I hate to move systems due to dealing with the animation without closing my eyes or something stupid. There needs to be a way for people to turn off the animation as I also think it is very distracting when moving around. |

Pretty much this. I have been home from work for seven hours now, I undocked, made three jumps, got nauseated, made three jumps back while looking away from the monitor, docked up, and haven't been out since. Looked here for an option to turn it off, found out that there isn't one, unsubbed until said option is put in.
On the bright side, if they refuse, my corpmates who can tolerate this garbage will get a bunch of free **** when I leave. |

I'm not prone to motion sickness myself, the worst I ever feel is a sharply sinking/dropping feeling in my bladder when falling long distances in some first-person games, but I support this. At the very least I'd like to see the lockout on camera controls removed. Not being able to pan the camera up until the last minute is annoying, and potentially dangerous, and if you could pan the camera in the "jump tube" some people might be able to diminish if not eliminate their issues with it. |

Just going to ditto this. These transition affects are trying my brain nuts and I find myself simply looking away at the wall when I jump now which is going to end up killing me on a gate camp one of these days. This is the worst visual change (on my eyes and brain) since the day the new font was introduced (which rendered the gate unplayable for me for about a month until they fixed it) |

I agree with you OP.
It's stupid and completely unnecessary. Same thing with wormholes. When you select and jump through it, the game zooms in on the wormhole for a while, and when you're through it zooms out again. Completely arbitrary and unnecessary. It looks ugly as well, so I just don't see any justification for this.

I expected crying on the forums after Odyssey hit. I didn't expect crying about wormhole effects.
You can disable camera shake in the ESC menu, like BlakPhoenix said. As for the camera aligning, that's the Tracking Camera and you can turn it off by pressing "C". You can also click the top corner of the "Selected Item" menu and disable it there.
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? |

The Tracking Camera appears with Odyssey. Before there was none. I believe there are many things like this in EVE Online which are totally unnecessary and disturb, not help, a fluid gameplay. Only my opinion.
There are many ways to solve such problems with less unsteady and dramatical effects.
E.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8F2FyiNbXk .
Aspecially if you travel long routes and you do not want to use the autopilot you stare a long time on the screen. I tell what I saw:
Traveling from the station to the gate (jump on top). The ship quivers while entering and leaving warp travel. Than jumping. The camera anligned to the gate in a very aggressive and fast swing and in the same second you move fast through this tunnel flash light effect. On the other side you see this distortion effect. After it the camera alignes to the gate. You choose your jump gate to jump and the camera alignes again. And this whole sequence for many systems. I cannot believe that there are people who do not become headache from this after a while. |

I've had the Tracking Camera enabled since Retribution if I'm traveling and want to see something a bit different but it's a lot more severe with the whole "Pan around the stargate, jump through, pan around again and then focus on the next stargate" effect that shipped with Odyssey.

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. |

I have read about this. Maybe it was deaktivated by default, so I did not noticed it. With Odyssey I noticed it and instantly search the posts how to deactivate it (again). I do not see any use for this except for causing me dizziness. |

Could be one possible explaination. But I do not think it is all about the frame rate alone. I am no expert on this.
My system in comparism: AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.80 GHz, 8GB DDR3 RAM, Geforce GTX 660 OT
I do not blame CCP for what they do or not do or the mistakes they make in my eyes. It is their product and we are the customer. But in my eyes it is too often the show effect only what determinates what CCP introduces into the game and lesser the actual necessity of it. Some people love good presentations and shows, others like to see real content and meaningful things. I believe it is hard for a company to find the middle way to please both groups.
When it comes to effects than in my opinion developer, not CCP alone, tend to exaggerate the things. Everything must be bombastic and great. But you can also have beautiful WOW(not World of.. you know)-effects with more humility in the things you create. Hard to explain. It is a philosophical and cultural question. Beauty is not always everything what is big and eye-catching. What I try to say is, more smooth and harmonical and less aggressive and unsteady effects would also have a more possitive effect on the perception of the gameplay. Again, this is only my opinion. In nature everything strives for balance. Humans mostly strive for extremes. And this extremes are making our body sick because the body, like all nature, tries to find the balance which we humans disturb with our mostly unbalanced creations. |

To be clear, this is not caused by the tracking camera. I have had the tracking camera turned off since it was released and confirmed it was still off after my first post-odyssey jump. They are separate animations. Also camera shake does not remove the effects. |

Ouch, having just done a long hisec run I'm feeling quite sick. Could we please have an option to turn off all that new unhelpful bling? The first time I saw the effect I thought "awesome", now I view it as unnecessary, unhelpful, nauseating (literally), and bad use of bandwidth / processor. I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now.

I personally would see this as improvement. If they could make it that the ship is shaking while warp traveling and not the camera I am very satisfied. |

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. |

#416Posted: 2013.06.05 22:13 | Report I get motion sickness from the moment of undock.
For the most part I really don't undock all that much to begin with but pretty much it is impossible for me to move around at all anymore.
The first thing is that scan that comes up when you undock. The scan is too flashy and tbh is not even necessary. I don't do sites I don't do sanctums. this is all frivilous crap that I could care less about.
The next thing iswhen you jump through gates. The camera pans to the gate and then you go through the gate effect and it shakes, both of those things make me nauseas...in fact I actually threw up going through a second gate.
I have been hitting f10 and just leaving the solar system map up but this isn't going to work to move a jf or anything large.
I get that these effects are pretty but they are not necessary for me to enjoy the game....with them I ca not play at all, pls fix
pressing C fixes none of my issues so please don't suggest it...it isnt my computer so dont tell me it is junk those answers are not helpful
I have already put in a petition but unless ithe issue is fixed i can not see myself subbing once my current month is done |

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.

It's simulated...
Which mean's that YOU CAN push past it. Unlike real motion sickness, simulated motion sickness is the result of you actually REALLY not moving. It's confused... which to mean means A+ this effect did EXACTLY what it was intended... immersion.
I understand it bother's people and all I can say is focus on the center, and try remind yourself this is a game... this is a game.
Movies like blair-witch use to make me feel sick, then I got over it by visualizing myself holding the camera.

Agree with OPs issue. I don't have it, but know people that do.
Simple default screen to black for transitions with option to enable "cool jump effects" would be ideal. That way, if graphic options mess up, black screen would show preventing players with issues to still play and others to know something is wrong.
Some people have issues IRL that we should have no problem working with in a game. We're all here to pewpew internet spaceships, right? The more the merrier... i.e. more targets. Simple coding work around, IMO.
Edit: As for the system scanner, wouldn't a simple blue/green line in place of the tetris blocks thinger work as well? Should help out those that suffer, once again default with enhanced being an option. |

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. we are not talking here about this
the camera is indeed reactivated, and can be turned off, as does the camera shake.
but the issue is that, both of those are included in the animation itself (for the first camera pan, and the shakes)
meaning we cannot turn em off, AND those give some player motion sickness (including myself) |

Just want to bring it up so CCP can fix this problem since a few are having it. There has been a lot of studies into this, and many researchers found a simple solution. Put a very very very small dot in the middle of the view. For some reason the brain sees that dot, and says if that dot isn't moving then you aren't.
I'm not sure how big the dot has to be, but you can test this out on the test servers. |

It's already to the point where I hate to move systems due to dealing with the animation without closing my eyes or something stupid. There needs to be a way for people to turn off the animation as I also think it is very distracting when moving around. Pretty much this. I have been home from work for seven hours now, I undocked, made three jumps, got nauseated, made three jumps back while looking away from the monitor, docked up, and haven't been out since. Looked here for an option to turn it off, found out that there isn't one, unsubbed until said option is put in. On the bright side, if they refuse, my corpmates who can tolerate this garbage will get a bunch of free **** when I leave.
can you contract all your crap to me? because i hate to say it, this will not be removed as it's a REPLACEMENT for the loading screen, furthermore, i would like to know how a non 3 dimensional animation is causing your motion sickness...if that animation causes your motion sickness, then the warp tunnel affect should also cause it, and it's been in for a very long time, exagerating a illness to try and get your way is very uncool...
also, if the veiwpoint shift is causing issues...wow you must never watch television, or movies, cause viewpoints shift all the time there too, even more so than eve does.

I will agree that a particularly designed Gallente stargate needs a slight redesign so our faces don't slam through the back of them, but I am 100% fine with the animation as is.
That said, if it's truly bothering some people.. I guess CCP can make an option that tones it down. Save the drones! |

I have to agree with this post, however I believe the worst part of it is the by default turned on directional camera, after just two jumps I had to turn it off cause of motion sickness, the jump effect is just a matter of looking away, since most people I talk with find this annoying over time. |
