Your stuff, quick, give it to me before others arrive!
When a person is insane, as you clearly are, do you know that you're insane? Maybe you're just sitting around, reading 'Guns and Ammo', masturbating in your own faeces, do you just stop and go, 'Wow! It is amazing how f*cking crazy I really am!'?

You think I havent? walls of text have been written. CCP told us all to go fck ourselves. Okay.
I tried getting used to new icons, I really did. But they are just so terrible and amateurish, and completely break established themes.
You know, when people play for 10+ years, and the UI elements get ingrained into their minds... Its not so easy to let it go. For example, when they changed rats from red crosses to these triangle things... I simply stopped farming sleepers. Honestly, its simply that uncomfortable for me to tell cruisers from battleships apart.
Same with PvP and other icons. Before, a frig was easy to tell on the grid. Now, it all looks like fcking triangles. Well, core of the game is older veterans like me - we like our things the way they were, more or less. A rat is a red cross, a ship is a bracket, etc. You can play with more modern variations of the icons, but leave the common theme alone!
And now these same icons start appearing on scanning, my last refuge of normal, minimalist ergonomical design.
Point i am trying to make is, this is no longer the game I fell in love with 10 years ago. it looks different, it feels different, and it is time to move on. |

I love my vintage motorcycles but same time things change so I like the new bike as well. I am not going to hate something because something small is no longer is as good, doesnt mean it is. CCPs goal is to make things better for new players which is what is needed. The new icons have more and instant information as you get used to it. If combat gets more complex, that will be useful.

I've gotten to like the new icons, I can tell a frig from a destroyer now, and a cruiser from a bc.

Sorry to see you go, but ... understandable.
I"ve got some friends who have played longer than me who have hit their "last straw" moment like you seem to have.
May you find something enjoyable to play. |

Well yeah, they did suck at first, but then they tweaked them so that they were easier to see. For a moment I thought someone committed thread necroism and brought up some old thread... hehe. Wow, they are so much of a problem for some people still? Sounds more like just an excuse.

There once was a Spirit from Nantucket
who once told CCP to go F*** it
she left in a huff
can I have your stuff?
Her character ,she just shucked it.
To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.
...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.

SoonGäó...stay tuned. I don't suspect UAE will let us down in those regards.
Edit: And I'll take your tin-foil hat, if that's up for grabs. You can keep/dispose/give away the rest. I just want the hat.

Oh good, it's not just me then.
All the things that need to be done to the game, but instead they allocate people to shuffling random combinations of pixels to replace the well-proven icon system. Personally, I can't even remember the threadnaughts where everyone demanded change to the iconic plus and box symbols. It's quite weird, and also sad, that the people inside the failing system can't even begin to understand how they are killing it. |

Truth be told the new icons are indeed horrible even after having tried one's best to get used to them, I wouldn't quit over it but it could very well be someone's last straw. |

Oh my sweet little Baby. Sounds you haven't got hugged for a long time!
There you go! *huuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggg*
And also a slobbery kiss on your sweet blushing cheeks! *kiiiiisssss*
And yeah, as you already mentioned, there will be the day when you get too old for all of that fast moving, blinking and shiny spaceship games. When the fingers aren't as fast as they were in the 70s and the connections between the gray cells begin to disappear much faster.
And there will be a time when the change of icons is a game-breaking change for you.
We will really miss yoou. All of us! For sure!!!!
Good bye my old friend! |

yeah, the icons suck, but if that's all you got for basis behind your ragequit, then good riddance to the pettiness.
Adapt or GTF... oh, you are. Good.

It felt uncomfortable for few days to see unfamiliar shapes on overview, but now after relearning by doing (shooting again) for a few months they are familiar.
With scanning window, the new one, well, there are flaws there I agree. It should not be implemented in current form on test server. They need to make it more customizable.
Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

Good Evening,
Please note the General Discussion forums are not the appropriate place for quitting posts, as such i will be locking this thread indefinitely.
Quote:
33. "Quitting" posts are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience channel.
CCP recognize that during the course of gameplay a lot of friendships are made between players and that sometimes if a player is taking a break or departing from the EVE universe that they would like to say goodbye on the forums. Posts of this nature are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience forum, and must be civil and well worded.
