Just dropping in to say, the new animation is unneccessary and even annoying, and that time and money could have been spent on improving your 0/10 GUI but you gave up on that a decade ago anyway, I suppose. Space lonely? www.multicamchat.com |

How about they replace the jump animation with a giant tooltip?
. EVE's only legitimate ISK halving service. I have 500Billion to not give away. It's easy for you to double my money. Just send me some isk, has to be 100Mil or higher, and I will send you back half. I can't lose. One guaranteed winner every round. Do it now. |

CCP, we get it. You took a lot of trouble coding these new jump animations. All the green lines connecting stars within your route show you a pretty backdrop map of where you are going. It is very pretty. Is that what you wanted to hear?
Now with all that out of the way, allow us to turn that **** off. How things look does not matter. Make it work and not cause people irritation or discomfort. Granted how it looks now is pretty amazing, but I just do not care about how it looks. While traveling gates, I am constantly irritated by all the bright lights. I have to manually move camera angle away from bright lights, but often the jump animation points directly at them with no option to "look away". I suppose an option I would accept is some sort of light filter for the brightest areas of space (sun and gas clouds). |

I've been reading the comments on the tooltips, and it's giving me serious deja vu.
- CCP rolls out a new feature.
- EVE players find the feature annoying and obtrusive to their gameplay, and so request an off switch.
- CCP makes empty promises to consider feedback and make the feature "less bad," but due to pride in their "accomplishments," never give any indication that they will even consider an off switch as a viable alternative.
Will CCP ever learn? Why a switch on/off? Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying. In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless. Simple as that.-á-á-á-á-á - Kina Ayami |

well, apparently a tooltip delay timer in the escape menu wasn't too hard to implement.
so how about a delay timer on the jump gate visuals such that they just get overridden by the session change and display of the new system? That way we don't have to see them unless we want to see them?
doesn't fix the mandatory autoscan graphics infliction. But hey I'd take half a fix at this point. CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, please give us an off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals. |

Will CCP ever learn? It's not so bad that very many people are willing to stop playing the game. CCP still gets paid, so it's just as well for them. "Pretty much all 14 of the CSM were in favor of a drone assign nerf for OBVIOUS gameplay reasons" - Sala Cameron

It's probably way too late for feedback about the jump animation, but here are the issues for me:
- The spinning at the beginning
- The spinning at the end
- The lack of camera control in the middle
The warp animation doesn't force you to a particular perspective, camera distance or camera angle. The jump animation does force you to a particular perspective, camera distance and camera angle, and it also change the angle quite drastically (so you can be looking "through" the star gate to see the "awesome" jump tunnel.
Then during the jump you have no camera control. During a warp you can turn the camera and admire your ship while waiting the two minutes for that 120 AU warp in Barkrik.
The jump animation then zooms and starts panning the camera around at the other end.
After about the third or fourth jump in a row, this starts to get annoying.
As for ideas about what might be cool: how about instead of a "tunnel" effect, you have a "space warp" effect where the destination sky-box and star are loaded, and you then proceed to stretch the star gate's volume into a hole through which you can see the destination skybox, then pull this construction "over" the viewer's "camera", effectively pushing the spaceship through the wormhole, then collapse the wormhole behind the ship in a reverse of the previous operation. Then start loading the overview with objects as the server is feeding the data to the client. Of course this might end up being worse for some people than the constantly spinning camera, but it would be awesome :)
We need to sit down with those wormhole simulators and determine what this transition would actually look like. The warp tunnel effect for gate and cyno jumps is a little boring and tired. In the linked article, the two locations are a university campus and a beach. Those scenes are what I mean the source and destination system's skyboxes.

Maybe we could have an option to make the new tooltips even bigger so they just cover the entire screen, thus solving this issue? |

Not quite sure who you're calling the multiboxer here. If you mean Ramona, I have no firsthand knowledge of it, but I'd believe that. If you're referring to me, I've been around off and on since 2005, and have only ever had one account, so sorry but no.
Thanks for the bump, anyway. Why a switch on/off? Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying. In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless. Simple as that.-á-á-á-á-á - Kina Ayami |

It appears they care about ears (the outer parts), but they don't care about the inner ears.
CCP, SAVE THE (snip) INNER EARS TOO
edited to remove risque reference to audial reproduction CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, please give us a persisting-áoff button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals. |

Personally, I find that when I actually read a bit of a thread before posting in it, for some reason I tend to appear a lot less ignorant about the issues at hand. Just a thought. Anyway, thanks for the bump.
CCP, it's been over a year now. How about that promised status update?

*Facepalm*
Just because you can't understand it, doesn't make it untrue.
Fine, I'll spell it out for you, since you can't figure it out on your own. I was accusing you of being an instigator of crap-talk (and this page pretty much stands as a testament to that fact), not claiming that you were "crap-looking."
Here's the original discussion for reference, since your memory seems to be so short:
Kirren D'marr wrote:Ramona McCandless wrote: There's some right crap talked in this thread

Phrased another way, "You show up, and the crap talk starts."
Now, if you're going to go around making accusations of lying, I suggest you either back it up or shut it up. Why a switch on/off? Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying. In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless. Simple as that.-á-á-á-á-á - Kina Ayami |
