Oh look, more sound medical advice and opinons from someone who is obviously a doctor. And a medical statistician at that, who clearly knows exactly what percentage of the population is suffering from a given condition. Oh wait, nevermind, it's just another random person projecting his own personal experience onto everyone else and assuming it must be the same for everyone.

In my case, the jump animation triggers migraines. The warp animation does not. You can say they are the same, but clearly they are different enough that one is causing a problem while the other is not. I put the blame on the flashing lights within the jump tunnel, as I have had similar issues with other pulsing light sources.

As for the nausea, there are differences in the transparency of the warp tunnel allowing outside reference points whereas the jump tunnel removes all frame of reference, the sudden shifts to and from first person perspective, etc. The bottom line is that there are plenty of reasons why the jump animation is causing issues for people who have no problems with the warp tunnel.

At this point, I really don't care if you think this is a problem worth CCP's time or not. The fact is that there are those of us for whom it is a problem. There are CCP devs for whom it is a problem. CCP has admitted it is a problem, and have promised to fix it. We're just here waiting for that promise to be kept.

there is no old system anymore

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Lord knows I'm not the best at this computering thing.

From what I understand of EVE, all the pretty gfx are client side. The code clientside has to be sent a trigger from the server to start jump, and end jump (hence the variable times in the warp tunnel, waiting for session change and grid load).

Is it really that difficult to stick the equiv of an "If checkbox checked=yes, then blank screen until grid load. Else play animation" in front of this particular graphical function?

Hell, if it's that hard, kludge it. Give an option that replaces the current warp tunnel textures with black on black on black. Warp tunnel still plays, you just can't see it.

1. they didn't "screw up"

How the hell did a yes or no question bloom into this bandwidth wasting monstrosity? Did Tippia fart or something???

Fix for this issue:

Step one: click jump
Step two: Close eyes
Step three: Open eyes when jump completed.

No one's forcing anyone to look at the screen while jumping and this method simulates *exactly* what jumping was like before.

*looks up

1. they didn't "screw up"
2. yes zone changes are a nightmare, sync and all, often why many get dropped. Best to be happy it works at all and just upgrade your 6yo computer.

Because of people like you we cant have better graphics.
CCP keeps going after people like you while it should be the opposite, CCP pushing graphics and you... well run after CCP or stop playing.

tl;dr: Get a better computer, any $300 can play this game maxed out at 100 fps.

So it looks like there's a new feature that players find annoying and want to turn off. CCP should really start a queue for these.

This thread illustrates who is fit for space travel, and who should stay at home.

I am fit for space travel. YAY!

As silly as it sounds this is actually what I do every time I jump through the gate.

With my play style I often find myself traveling a lot in EVE and as a result that means a lot of gate jumping. The new tunnel effect literally causes me physical discomfort. A jump here and there is fine, but when you have to travel somewhere far it's beginning to get troublesome. I don't know what the exact problem is but there is just too much going on. The camera warping and rotating, the FOV zooming, etc...

I just hope that something gets done about this. Obviously not everyone is affected by this, but for those of us that are it's just sad that we have to resort to things like closing our eyes or looking away during the jump - when you are driven to do something so silly to avoid looking at the screen there is obviously something wrong with the effect's design, no matter how fancy it may look.

I have the browser open in center screen when I'm just travelling several jumps, on eve-o forums usually (just make sure the overview is visible).

Less anguish + entertainment.

Yep, many people find a workaround for these wonderful ne . . now rather old features. Avoiding the game graphics so one can watch **** or whatever. How's that for immersion CCP? Another workaround is just playing less and less. One of these days . . . and no, my stuffs will just rot on a harddrive somewhere.
