I don't think people realize how lucky we are as players of this game , we really actually have a say in what is good and bad. Please stop ruining it with stupid things like this petition.
We're lucky? We're customers who pay for a product. This isn't a charity. Customers always have a say in anything. Dollars are votes. Money talks. Etc. Why do you think monocle gate scared them? We are lucky to have as much say as we do, not many products give the consumers the amount of leg room that CCP does. Yes this isn't a charity but you wouldn't complain about a logo change on a chocolate if the chocolate had a cockroach in it. Think of CCP as a teenager that's trying to find its place in the world. And we are the parents. Choose your battles.
Actually branding is a thing and the reason companies update or change their logos to appeal to the crowd most likely to buy their product.
For small stuff like Eve Online that can create an echo chamber effect because only the people who like it stay and say they like it, while it can alienate other demographics of players entirely.
Porucznik Borewicz wrote:Lost Greybeard wrote:I liked the old one because it looks like an actual first aid kit.
I understand that a lot of Eve players are kinda shut-ins that never do anything that would require a plaster or disinfectant and didn't understand that, though. My main objection to the change is less that the old icon was great as that the new icon is meaningless gibberish that doesn't match the aesthetic of any of the other module icons.
I mean:
Active armor resist module: detailed drawing of a golden cloak, subtly shaded to reflect the resist type EANM: same cloak/poncho, but bright silver with a fancy glow effect to show it's energized Shield resist modules: 3d drawings of kite shields complete with emblazoned symbols reflecting resist type Turrets: actual detailed drawing of a mechanically plausible turret
Damage control unit: ... undetailed cartoon plus sign. What?
I can't be the only one that feels like there's a huge clash in the visual design there. It's not a poncho you silly, it's a helmet with shoulder protectors. Anyway, screw this. The new DCU icon could eventually stay, I just hope CCP will not decide to screw with other nice icons like the ones you just pointed out. But I can bet they will go like "What is an actual medival shield icon doing in our super futuristic space pew, pew game?! Let's make it more lore friendly, into a blueish blob thingy... something". CCP, please... no. OK?
I actually had to look closely but there appears to be soem faux-circuitry in the blue pad/chip design. It still does clash heavily with all the other stuff. The briefcase didn't. |

I propose a compromise:
Let's keep the new icon but officially change the name of the module from Damage Control to Suitcase.
Everybody wins.

Yeah, I cant give you thumbs down for being against the thread.
At 5 drones of T2, the Tristan is nearly as powerful as the Algos, with a cheaper price tag, better maneuverability and speed, and smaller sig radius to avoid the lazy carebearish T3 station blapping -10s who have no life. Pick tristan for FW.

The old suitcase never made sense, but it at least looked like something instead of the pixelated junk they added now. Can someone tell me what its supposed to look like? I honestly thought this was an april fools joke when they announced it. It looks awful.
TL:DR, Make another icon please.

Well i think, its a device like - uhm - any kind of CPU with a strange first aid symbol on it... or it is (maybe) this short of thing you have to break a glass to use.
More like "uh.. i need a Damage controll right now"*punch the glass*"...damage controll activated!!" - and you have a bandage for free if you cut yourself (thats the health symbol)

Every time i look at ingame killmail i think "WTF is this blue thingy? It looks like it does not belong here?" Then i recall that this is new 'design' by CCP.
Well... there is 'Modern Art' where you can find lots of badly grouped colors and shapes. Another example: little girls - when whey try to 'be beautiful' they can use completely randomly chosen colors for their dress and makeup.

Why dont you just keep them both. 'DMG Control' and 'DMG Control V2' ?
Normally you wouldnt do that, but the Damage Control module just makes every go fluffy.....

I'm not particular pro keeping the old ... BUT the new simply does not match the look&feel of the rest of the module icons. All other icons have a different color scheme and some nice 3D look. Also the detail level is to high compared to the other icons IMO.

While I prefer the old one, as it was very iconic, it did seem out if place. I do not like the new one though.
If anything I think the icon should be a ship like the ones from cloaking devices, only green or yellow to indicate health.
While a chip makes sense logically, it's to cold, no class to it. A chip could be anything. Hell I get chips when I salvage wrecks all the time. |

Really? A whole petition over an icon, that CCP just changed for a reason? I am sure there are more important things for us and CCP to focus on.
Yeah, I liked my old Avatar, but they changed the visuals on them and no way I am getting it back, so that's the way it is.
If CCP restores the old icon, it's like they wasted their time changing it in the first place. I have not seen them reverting a work of their own, maybe altering it, but not reverting it. |

dunno, same as nomenclature "shouldn't" affect gameplay either, but I remember that petition thread on the reverting trauma back to scourge was quite impressive, just saying...
argue for the sake of arguing, I'm neither for nor against this DCU icon thing, just pointing out the facts that events have occurred in the past.

I hope in the next patch CCP changes the overview color of reds to teal or something, so that you become forced to start saying "10 teals in system" instead of "10 reds in system" in teamspeak.
And when you complain, I'll say that "aesthetics doesnt affect gameplay".
