This thread delivers. Please keep it coming. Ofc, we have our own lists of things we feel is important. For example missiles are very high on it, so are explosions, many non-weapon/turret effects and gas clouds in dungeons. V3 shaders will allow very cool lighting effects in space once that effort is done ( will take time ). Your suggestions are being read and popular items or novel new ideas are being considered and weighed against everything else.
One thing we have to consider is scalability. What is your opinion on that? Go nuts with modern state of the art effects that require powerful machines or keep it to a bare minimum so that it runs on 10 year old craptops? Or allow just allow people to turn stuff off?
Thanks! |

That assumes that there will be survivors. I'm not sure that the capsuleer allows crews to abandon ship while still engaged in combat. |

That's actually in there right now, it's pretty faint though, it used to be more pronounced. |

There is a lot of great ideas in here. The art department recently did a massive brainstorm on things to improve EVE visually and of course, many of their ideas are the same ones as listed here. Getting your point of view on it is hugely important though, because while coming up with ideas may be easy, prioritization can be challenging. I've taken the posts listed into a massive list that will be cleaned up, but from what I gather the main things you list are ( in non-priority order):
- Missiles ( bays, paths, explosions etc )
- Explosions + ship death
- More camera options
- Sensor booster, shield hardeners and such effects
- Seeing the effects of shields / damage on armor and structure
- More life in general, such as NPCs, billboards and other things
- Go nuts with state of the art graphics but allow people to turn things off
- Jump and cyno effects
- Projectile effects
There are more, and they are in the list, me not listing them doesn't mean that we are omitting them.
Thanks!

Yeah, not everyone agrees on that on the dev team. Many feel that the crews should simply perish, given how easily replaceable they are in the world of New Eden... Buf since it's on the wiki, then yes, a few people might survive in some instances
