Is it just me or is the new font looking a whole lot better for some reason :) When its set to normal, yeah its a bit ugly lookin, but at wide its quite spiffy :D
I dunno, im starting to like it, would be good to hear other's thoughts if they've gotten used to it.

I've always liked it :)
It does seem to be easier to read since the hotfix though.

It's still horrible as ever if you ask me. No matter how large or wide you make it.
Give us back the old font or at least let us choose between the new / old one. |

Why not just give us the option to set the font ourselves?

They can't use the old font because it was not Unicode.

Totally! Ever since CCP suggested that I get my eyes checked for not liking the new font, these reading glasses the doc prescribed for playing EVE are awsome! Font rocks!

I would give up the ability to insult isk farmers in Mandarin for a font that doesn't completely suck.
posting in this thread again because I was just reminded of how the decimal runs into the 2 so you can't tell the difference between 325% and 32.5%

I hate to say this but i appear to be climateising to the font, after a week of it I have to strain my eyes much less... Still not perfect by any means, but i know what u mean when u say it looks better for some reason :)

I fell the same way as you Gothikia, after setting them to wide i can see them fine with no more headaches.

I don't believe that the developers have said anywhere that they're fixing the font. It'd be nice if they offered more font options, I guess, but it's probably a pretty low priority for them.
Switching to wide font really does help. And you should probably lower your resolution from 1920x1200 to something more reasonable... you're going to go blind. The game doesn't look any better at higher resolutions anyway (btw, the best thing you can do for visuals is to enable antialiasing and anistropic filtering on your videocard).

people with LCDs can't run below native res because either you have to run it in a tiny box with black bars around, or it gets scaled to fullscreen by the monitor and looks terrible.

Native resolution looks best, but scaled resolution isn't that bad. I know; my native is 1920x1200, but it's too small for most applications that don't scale (thankfully, Civ 4 scales properly!)

The font is pretty bad.
Wow! That drone nerf eliminated all lag!
Just like the highway nerf eliminated all lag!
Meet the new lag, WORSE than the old lag!
Happy RMR everyone!  |

I quite like it, always have. The only thing I don't like is that 'rn' and 'm' look exactly the same.

I've set it as large and wide as it will go and headaches have gone now

My main problem is the font resolution and many characters appear the same, for eg,
6, 8, &
m, n rn
for eg on medium font at 1280*960 windowed and also the font is too grey for me, it should be more white.
Otherwise it is ok for me reading wise.
Chat wise, CCP need to sort out the copy/paste of text from chat channels, the emote is awful now as well (bring back the old one)

It never gave me headaches but it remains less readable than the previous font.

I'm getting more used to it but it's not perfect by any means. I'm running with Radeon 1280x960 4xFSAA, haven't checked if the antialiasing affects the font or not. I wont change to non aliased though...
