This seriously use to bug me, now I just don't use star gates anymore and when I absolutely have to use them, I play the game with the map up. But legit I pretty much do not use gates anymore at all since even though they toned the effect down, it still makes me a bit sic to my stomach. Jump drives ftw.

there is no old system anymore

Cause it's hard to put an if statement and a variable in your code and setup a switch in options.

You know you suck when......

pls pak pls

please dude don't bump this troll post just ignore those trolls. The keep spamming. You can never win a argue against them. The see it like that and that its. Also don't give them some info about the subject the keep bashing this. See dev post in here that there is no returning to the classic way. End of any debate on this subject.

Tomba, nice post. This was the reason for my question, as the jump tunnel should have a similar effect as the warp tunnel - give you a sense of rapid movement through the space between systems.
You should be able to chat etc. while in jump. Scanning makes no sense as there is nothing to scan there, but that said the basic idea should be similar.

So all those things everyone has been saying "this is why we are not complaining about warp", those are the things we need to look at fixing ;)

I see Eve has no shortage of tit babies. Must just come with the territory on a MMO.

Would you support the reduction of this game to arrows on a black screen? With white dots as bullets and missiles?
Hell do away with the projectiles at all and just leave the text telling you that you hit.
Make eve text based, (okay i exagerate here but i hope you get my point)

Everything in this game is to add to the immersion in the game, the jump effect give continuance to the single shard idea.

Reductio ad absurdum arguments will get you nowhere.

Immersion at the expense of playability is not an improvment.

Also, how would having a client-side option to disable this effect (just like many other visual effects in this game) change your immersion in any way?

CCP promised they would improve this animation to reduce the ill effects others have experienced. They have had more than enough time to attempt a solution, and have failed to deliver or even communicate their progress. They have demonstrated that they are either unwilling or unable to fix this "their way," andI think it is high time that they put their egos aside, and admit that the "cop out" of actually listening to their players is the best option at this point.

What expense of playability?

Perhaps if you are still using the machine you got when eve was released but that's really your problem/fault

Who are you to judge someones "enough time" CCP don't have you at the top of their priorities I am sure. There is no requirement to keep you updated either, honestly they owe you squat but access to their game and various things it entails.

Why does your argument for reduction hold any gravity over mine? It is the same thing in effect, you are just skewed as to supporting your own idea methinks.

Why shouldn't we have a switch?

Because we don't need it and it adds nothing.

I like it. Continue to improve graphics so the game can stay shiny and relevant. I have no desire to play a game with outdated graphics just so those on their Tandy PC can still play.

We can have nice graphics and good gameplay. They are not mutually exclusive.

Please do some reading before jumping in the middle of a conversation with no clue of what it is about. As has been stated repeatedly, this is not about graphics performance! It is about an animation which mechanically gives no improvement to the game, but does cause adverse physical reactions for some players (nausea, headaches, seizures, etc.). Players who previously had no issues with any part of EVE now find aspects of it unplayable because of this one animation.



And good graphics and an option to disable them can also exist side by side. We already have options to adjust or disable many visual effects in this game; where is the contradiction in adding one more?

Some people may perceive a need and it would certainly add quality of life to others. Whether you are for or against an off switch, not understanding this makes you look a little slow.

I did read it. Go forum warrior elsewhere.

The new jump animation introduces too much lag when multi-boxing. is there a way to turn it off? If not, please give us the ability to use the old system again.

Simply adding the ability to "turn it off" is a cop-out, and leaves us in the position where we have a sub-optimal animation in game that some people are unhappy with and choose not to use. The jump transition, much like the warp tunnel, is here to stay as a replacement for loading bars, and therefore it has to be good for everyone, and has to function as intended.

We will stress though, that we hear your concerns and we're in the process of exploring various avenues for resolving them that include work on the camera and work on the animation itself to smooth it out and alter how it flashes and scrolls, however this is something that will take time and won't happen overnight.

Again, thanks for all the feedback, both positive and negative. It's being taken on board, and we're looking to make changes based on the things that you guys are concerned with the most, without removing the transition completely.
