CCP, once again you have wasted your time on things no one needs, no one asked for, and no one wants. I was already upset with the new interface, totally useless and clumsy. It was typical from you that you continue in this direction instead of adding interesting content to the game. We don't need fluff, especially when it's so messy.

Third day. I am a professional prey in EVE. I roam solo in dangerous areas (low, null, WS) with a PvE fit and explorations modules. Just like the antelope in the savanna, if i am caught i am mostly dead. I have sharpenned my reflexes during years of practise to warp away immediatly if anything lands on grid. Now with the new icons, i am not able anymore to react fast enough. It has nothing to do with "getting used to", it is simply that your new icons are not well thought, that you have not at all listened to all the players who told you that they were not working, and that you are too proud and disdainful toward your paying customers to admit it (you have proven this behavior many many times already in the history of EVE). I don't think that i will stay in EVE if you don't give us back the old icons. There are other interesting online space games nowadays, i think it will be time for me to move on. Your own fault CCP.

As the feedback from more and more players is gathered, i sense that the ones who are ok with the new icons are not normaly meeting critical situations where instant reflexes are needed to survive. It looks like missionner, miners, traders, etc like the new icons. And players doing PvP or living in hostile environment (WS, explo...) hate them. Which proves that they are bad : EVE is supposed to be a harsh environment where you can any time be attacked by other players, you devs have bragged enough about that (hmn, mr Falcon ?). So the new icons are not adapted to the core of EVE : PvP. Admit your fail and stop to annoy us with useless and game-breaking "features" directly coming from your marketing department. I'm not angry at the devs, i know that they have to obey if they want to stay employed. I'm angry at the decision makers.
I have found a title for this release : "Incarna 2, the revenge of CCP"

@ all the good people who are proposing some ideas to fix the catastrophic new icons : I admire your enthusiasm and all, but there is a very simple solution to have perfectly working icons : let's use the old ones.

Yes, that would have been a great idea : a contest for the new icons, with some nice prizes for the fun, and most importantly a poll for the players to choose the winners.

Indeed, CSM, where are you ? Funny, each time there is a true crisis between the players and CCP, the CSM disappears Won't you help us have the option to choose between the old and the new icons, just like the map ? Is it too much asking ?

CCPs are showing exactly the same disdain for their customers than during the Incarna-gate. And i naively thought they had learned something... They are so proud and blind that they don't see the danger.
Not a word from CCP. Not a word from the CSM. Not a reason to trust them anymore.

CCP Claymore and Surge, typing an answer here to tell us of your intentions takes only a few minuts. Your silence is insulting. Won't you show the most basic and minimal respect for your customers ? CCP will you ever learn ?

CCP Surge wrote: we're now looking into what can be done to make groups of items slightly more distinctive, potentially giving people the option to use simpler group icons for brackets that's closer to the old system. [/list]
Then why the hell don't you simply give us the choice to use the old icons ?

CCP Surge wrote:We're meeting with the CSM later this week to discuss much of this feedback, and I'm sure many of your concerns will be represented as well. Either way the significance of this and your well reasoned responses in this thread aren't lost on us. I'll keep poking in here to keep you guys updated on any further actions coming with regards to the icons.
[/list]
Why bothering meeting people who have shown absolutely no interest in this concern ? There's not one post from a CSM member in these 1500 posts !

TuCZnak wrote:Looking at the data from eve-offline, it seems like EVE has lost 10% of active players based on login count since the deployment of Carnyx.
And looking at the Dotlan statistics, if we compare statistics for the first 10 days of June and first 10 days of May, there are:
15k less highsec kills 12k less lowsec kills 16k less nullsec kills
4M less highsec jumps 700k less lowsec jumps 1,5M less nullsec jumps
All these statistics amount to roughly 15% loss of active players, varying slightly by region. So 10% of players don't login anymore and additional 5% went from playing to ship spinning... Just some food for thought. My personal guess, somebody's getting fired because of this mess.
I think that no one will be fired, or if so, not the right person (the decision maker) just a poor scapegoat who had no other choice than to follow the orders. Why ? Because they don't acknoledge the facts. All what they think is : "stupid players, they are conservative, narrow minded and unable to adapt to the changes, they are never happy, they are unable to appreciate the wonderful thing we are bringing to them". CCP are too proud to consider the possibility that their genial ideas are bad for the game and put live half-finished, half-tested. It's just like Incarna, the similarity is striking.

Subscription cancelled until we get the possibility to choose between the old icons and the new ones. Or maybe forever if i find a better online space game.

If this is how they work id say they need to forget this 6 week release cycle thing. Yes, I have been seeing a lot of signs pointing to this. The 6 week release cycle is clearly not working as intended, and I would strongly prefer better content, more polish, even if it takes much longer. I for one, hope CCP returns to the 6 month release schedule, and gives us more polished, more complete, and better tested, content. quality over quantity! And for the love of god CCP, STOP FIXING THINGS THAT ARE NOT BROKEN I don't care at all about module updates, or the ship balance changes, or UI changes, of any kind, aside from a few items and ships that were overpowered or crap(that always happens in any game) Balance changes are simply NOT EXCITING. And the worst case, is a patch like this, combined with the last few ones, that's seriously diminishing my enjoyment of the game. I still hate the new neocom, I miss the gui sliders(plural), the ability to have seperate colors for seperate things(**** monochrome) These things worked perfectly with noone complaining about them, for well over 12 years now, why did they suddenly need updating? I want to send a few dozen "IF IT'S NOT BROKEN, DON'T FIX IT" signs to CCP, as a not-so-subtle hint of what I think of your last year of patches. You clearly do not have any of those.
The list could be very long, just one more working thing people were enjoying until they "fix" it : the jukebox. Why the hell, CCP, what's in your heads ? In what removing the jukebox makes the game better ??? What's in your heads...
