Will we ever be able to log out to the character selection screen to change characters? As opposed to how we currently have to re-launch the game from the launcher in order to do so?
The bad guys went the other way, seriously.... |

I realise that you have branding issues to consider, but perhaps one day you could allow us to choose a particular wallpaper from a past expansion (or make a variety of wallpapers available per expansion)?
A couple of issues though; could be trickier if they're also animated with their own soundtrack, and which expansion name would you display - the current one or the one the wallpaper belonged to?
I like the look of it, though. But, if there's a skill in training, does it just list the skill, or also how much time is left on it? Meh. |

Actually I have no idea for how long, but I do read some news there. You can read almost entire article if it's short and a few paragraphs if it's long and decide for yourself is it interesting or not for you and should you read on, you can't do that in the launcher 'cause it shows only headers. It was a neat feature in my opinion and it would be nice to have it back. |

Will there be an option to switch characters without logging out completely? Apologies, I don't have time to sift through this thread to see if it's been answered. |

Once a connection has been made, both the server code and client code make a lot of assumptions that the characterID will not change, and it's very far from trivial to change that (otherwise we probably would have done that a long time ago)

Screen needs to show if you have contracts assigned to you. It's a pain just to fully log in, check for contacts, and then log off again if you don't have any.
Also need to switch characters without relaunching the client |

Posting in a give us a switch character button thread and I agree +10.
On a side note, someone mentioned a character screen. Looks good! |

honestly, i dont like it! why? 2 words
needlessly simple
The character selection comes without any pewpew effects or fancy crazy moving character models which doesnt really fit into a game like EVE !
CCP Ytterbium As designers, we can tell Caldari have three main points going for them as a race and that is, missile, hybrids and ECM. To be an all-rounded Caldari pilot, one must realize all aspects have to be considered and learned! |

[sheds a single tear for the old character screen]
No doubt a lot of time and hard work's gone into this, and I know at this stage bitching about it is largely futile but for what it's worth, i really don't care for the new character selection screen.
Admittedly my main gripe is mainly stemming from a particularly severe case of bittervet syndrome. Nevertheless the fact that the character screen remained unchanging through all these years gave me solace against the relentless onslaught of ui changes, and i'll be sad to see yet another part of eve's legacy swept into the abyss. |

So, we still can't return to character selection by logging out? 8+ years since I started playing and this is still not implemented?
So, overall the work you've done is good. The only thing left now is to throw it into a ******* bin, for all the useful functionality you've added. |

Although the odd thing is long ago, you could do this in the client.... |

1) You would garner great kudos with all manner of players if you could exit one of your characters to enter another character from ANYWHERE in the game, at any time, without having to return to the game launcher screen.
2) You would receive unending fan mail, if you allowed multiple account holders to select ANY of their characters held on the SAME E-MAIL ADDRESS from any point in the game.
3) You would be loved endlessly, if a player had paid for three months ahead, could apply sequential training to the paid characters for the 'paid-for' period and not be limited to 24 hours.
And finally: 4) The only real consistent artefact in EvE-Online, is our skill point collection, everything else is transitory, so why, after paying for the training time with one character, if I need to delete that character because the name is wrong or I am finding myself on the wrong training path, why oh why, when I delete the character, don't I get BACK the training skill points I spent on said character, after all, I did PAY for them and they are the only consistent thing in the game. To get the paid-for skill points refunded for onward transfer to another paid for character of my choosing would make eve-online so much better, believe me.
And, when you make changes in the game, that can for a player, invalidate the reasons they trained their characters, and are now redundant, why cannot the player receive a refund for the training skills they trained for, that now have no reason to be there. You did in that past refund Sp when you removed a lot of training books and steps, so I know it is very possible.
I am sorry CCP, but your reasons for NOT returning to the character selection screen from in-game, sounds like armpits, everyone has them and they all stink.

I love everything you did with the client screen. Red is my favorite color! (in RL)
Very, very well done.
I think you guys have squashed the memory leaks - time to enable the insta-switch character function! CCP Punkturis-á "I want to get in on the goodposter circle jerk!"

Love the larger portrait of the characters. Like the new non-busy and clean interface. Good job. It is GIGO application development. |

Well, I like the new Character selection screen!
I especially like the info top left corner, remaining sub time!!! I suggested this feature in a petition pne of my alts wrote and was heartily surprised when I received a friendly answer that CCP was looking to implement it.
Although I read that some people dislike the new screen because it only displays the current skill and not the end of the skill queue anymore, I disagree with those critics. EVEMon is a tool that everybody I know who plays EVE is using. So, no problem there!
As suggested in this thread, a link to the EVE news channels via ingame browser or neocom or F12 would be nice to have. I usually log in without thoroughly reading the headlines, so I regularly have to go bakc to the launcher to re-read/follow the interesting links...
Overall, nicely done with lots of additional info, benefits and comfort. Well done CCP! |
