Sunrise Aigele Pemberley Enterprises BadWrongFun 79	Posted - 2016.03.10 16:20:02 - [4] - Quote Thank you! If I can offer a suggestion, it would be that the prominence of the sound should be inversely proportional to the frequency with which it is played. You would not play the hull alarm every time your ship was hit! It would drive you to insanity. Consider that there is already a perfectly good explosion.

Amak Boma Dragon Factory 171	Posted - 2016.03.10 16:40:37 - [11] - Quote i would prefer to change the gong to somehing more simpler sush beep , splash , or gunshot or simply attach the gong to sound settings so we can turn it off or keep it on, or just control volume so we can do it little silence . as for the entire gong the sound is OK. but we should have option to turn it off removing entire feature because of player outcry is kinda stupid choice.

Suggestion: why not have an array of sounds for different ship classes and owners, and start a player competition to provide them?

All we need is a GONG option in the Advanced audio settings so people can tern it down independley of the other stuff.
Aoi Litvyak Random inactiva corporation 23	Posted - 2016.03.10 17:54:43 - [30] - Quote On the topic of the kill animation, the flashing of it is bad. Why not just flash up the X overlay once and fade away both it and the locked target, could be done in half a second and make it seem smoother.
Natya Mebelle Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 342	Posted - 2016.03.10 18:07:35 - [31] - Quote Tiranius Avetus wrote: Why not a configurable option? As much as I appreciate the "gong going gone", that is a valid statement. You have the power at your fingertips to change the system to be more than "either / or". You might even grab different sound effects for the player to CHOOSE from, other than "none". That single 12'o'clock bell that strikes high noon when a wild-west shootout happens and John Wayne wins again? Ding of death, go for it. The gong that is played when a player gets reprocessed? Go for it. Digital distortion effect that fades out, signalizing how the ship discharged on your sensors into bits and pieces? Go for it. Do you see the pattern? The pattern is that we crave for OPTIONS. We crave for ADDITIONAL possibilities, not removal and replacement. Same with the tab key. If you can remove the gong within a day's worth of downtime, you have to do the same with the tab key as well. Bring it back as customizeable key bind, instead of your bludgeoning of previous options. Do more options require more work? Yes they do. Are more options making more people happy because they can choose what their preference will be? Yes they do. Is there development time available for those? I'm inclined to say "yes there is" without even knowing, because considering all the time you wasted to bring half-hearted attempts of content which nobody ever desired or needed, then there is PLENTY of time freed up. Oh and speaking of options; you STILL did not bring contrast-inverted colour schemes to Eve, even though you completely changed the skin-styles. We still don't have black text on light background. And we still don't have a more prominent shadow on text that sits directly on the skybox, which then becomes hard to read with increased lighting.

And for anyone who really likes the new effect - you have until tomorrow to record it. Hi CCP Guard. I think the feature has *merits. If we where allowed to customize which ships tiers, or hulls/structures, that trigger the "gong*". Then we could decide when it's useful for ourselves. Also if the sound was centered it would be less annoying for people using headsets. As for the animation that came with it, if it could be just a little bit snappier, it too would be less annoying.

Why not just flash up the X overlay once and fade away both it and the locked target, could be done in half a second and make it seem smoother. This. The animation X thing is taking way to long to do it's thing. Suggesting either speed it up so it takes just as long as the old target demolished animation and not a single microsecond longer, or a return to the old target splatted graphics. It's out of sync, gets more off kilter as the rat nest cleaning goes on, and is causing me some problems with clicking empty space instead of the next target I wanna whomp. My adopted drones are getting confused on targets dead but still have their name in the way. However.... Thank you in advance, for the removal of that damned gong tone. It doesn't have (to me) a single reference to any sci-fi, space, future, or dystopian theme I can think of. Of all things it reminded me of some sound effect from the older entries of the Castlevania franchise. It didn't help the volume on it was defaulted to way too loud. Very immersion breaking, pleased it's going away. >Jeven Minny boat flyer, unofficial squeaky wheel. 'Game Ethics and Morality Monitor' I remember promises. Snark at 11-24/7/365.25. Overshare? Yup.

Dominous Nolen Powder and Ball Alchemist Industries 167	Posted - 2016.03.10 18:24:26 - [34] - Quote Your new animation cycles way to long and leaves a blank space with the text of the item on screen for longer then the icon itself. Just FYI. Needs to be sync'd @dominousnolen

Sunrise Aigele Pemberley Enterprises BadWrongFun 80	Posted - 2016.03.10 18:38:36 - [40] - Quote The idea has merit. A titan exploding could have a big sound like the bell, because it is a relatively rare event. The same could be said for any supercapital. For smaller ships, and particularly smaller NPC ships, the sound should be spare to non-existent. Perhaps to try one you could set up a pipebombing fleet and warp another fleet of frigates into it. If the result does not make you run for the nearest window, run The Blockade, or some other dungeon with many NPCs. If that does not make you run for the nearest window, then perhaps you have something. It would seem best if it communicated information: was the ship a titan or supercapital? was the ship volleyed within a single tick? by a single ship, by the whole squad, the whole wing or the whole fleet? (Perhaps those could be adjustable percentages, as the shield and armor and hull alarms are.) Those are merely a few possibilities. It seems to me to be an opportunity to reward efficacious participation in combat.

I mean THIS, this should not happen, seriously
Moor Deybe Eternal Darkness. Blades of Grass 42	Posted - 2016.03.10 19:32:29 - [44] - Quote It sounds really out of place, not from any sci-fi genre I've ever watched. This sound really jars in PVE. The animation and the associated delay are also really painful to view. The graphic looks like something from the 90's and the delay as a dying target goes into the flickering animation and half the drones stay on it, and the rest select the next target, looks really odd and is sort of irritating to look at. It seems like a 1-2 second delay but probably isn't as long as that, it just seems that way. Please remove it from the salvaging of wrecks also...........terrible, terrible. edit: it actually is 2 seconds or more long! No wonder it "breaks" the GUI

Luscius Uta Anomalous Existence Low-Class 204	Posted - 2016.03.10 20:10:34 - [47] - Quote On a somewhat related note, I think that the low capacitor warning is much more annoying (but on the other hand, it both can be turned off and doesn't play as much often). If only that sound was replaced with something more bearable. Workarounds are not bugfixes.
Juantootrigo Scrapheap Mojo 0	Posted - 2016.03.10 20:12:07 - [48] - Quote Ive seen some blunders foisted on the player base in recent times but nothing says "we have lost touch with reality" like this gong, big X and that stupid camera, oh and the yakking station voice. Im not gonna complain anymore. Im gonna wait and play some other game for a week. if these idiot effects are not gone im gonna relog move my stuff to hisec, to give me the option of maybe one day in years to come if they get some developers who understand that eve is not an arcade game for 10 yr olds to play again. Then im going to unsub 3 accounts. Its not a threat, its already clear that the developers either couldnt give a rats ass what the current players like about the game or have no clue.Its just a fact, i play for fun and splosions not to be annoyed everytime i log on by ridiculousness. hasta la vista babies.

Gabriel Dube Outer Planets Alliance 15	Posted - 2016.03.11 00:23:19 - [64] - Quote Well, it was useful to have a clearly distinguishable auditory notification whenever a target went pop while sporadically alt+tabbing between eve and a bunch of other windows. The sound was annoying, but convenient to know exactly when to alt+tab back and lock new targets. One way to have the best of both worlds would be to have the actual sound of the target's destruction (explosion or otherwise) in place of the "gong", and have it be unaffected by doppler shift unless the camera is looking at said target (in which case you'll hear the pop anyway). Or, in the long run, allow a selection of different sound effects (not just different varieties of gongs, obviously). I'm sure there are some people who would love to put the sound of a train horn, chainsaw, meat grinder or a swarm of bees over this. Aura's voice saying "Boom, Headshot!" would be absolutely hillarious too. For better or worse, idk.

All of these can be traded just like the current overview. This Would allow the players to pay the game in anyway they choose to be "Their" way. Also the Giant X, Create a option to turn on / off. So to be Clear, its not the Idea most people dislike, Its the overwhelming and overpowering choice of a sound that's the problem. New Content IS OK wanted and expected but creating and mandating cosmetic changes should have a second, a third, a fourth look, and then have the option to override. Things like coding a new camera because the old one is running on outdated code is bound to happen, but baby steps should be the name of the game. ]

Would also be cool to have a fake statistic for the ship crew number, and a fake statistic that appears on killboards for the number of crewmen killed / escaped when the ship was destroyed, similar to the loot drop tally. So we can compare casualties epeen on the killboards.

Maybe we'll do that later but, I don't know, but the best solution right now is to disable it while we look at it. You already put in work to make it happen. If work hours need to be so cautiously planned, then you should have asked for the desire to get such an implementation, and then think about if that is really necessary now to deliver something that could have been done much better with more effort and time. Because as it stands, that addition is in it's general idea compared to other more demanding stuff (for the same development group) useless, and in it's original inception sub-par. The bottom line is, it was not needed, neither was the animation. Because it distorts and delays the flow of the game. I'm no longer at a point where I believe that CCP can implement a new feature or change a feature properly. So I would much rather see options, to have the ability to avoid the "unnecessary new stuff" or the "broken revamp"

So I would much rather see options, to have the ability to avoid the "unnecessary new stuff" or the "broken revamp" Wall O' Text Incoming I've been discussing this with some other players and former players. The problem, atleast in my mind is that there are a few problems here with the way features are developed, tested and rolled out to the production server. A) Not enough players interacting with the test server on a regular basis to test all aspects of potential implemented changes, so there for incoming changes aren't given the proper shake down before live production rollout and they are left with dealing with our reactions. B) The feedback provided doesn't appear to be taken into consideration (or at the very least acknowldged) during the testing phase of on the test server due to the small sample size or just due to time limitations. There for the player base is less likely to provide feed back if they feel at the end of the day what we say in regards to changes doesn't matter. There are several examples of this that can be sighted (Icongate, Neocom icon updates, Camera changes) and some changes that you just implement without notification or little time to feed back on (Tab function removal, Watch changes) Yes, I understand that change requirements may not allow for as much feedback as we'd like, but in certain cases some of these changes are found via a post on reddit from an EVE Event and announcned days before the change goes live. I've seen some changes that don't seem to really get any form of attention until CCP rolls them out to production and even then has to for a setting to have us Opt Out of the changes. If you look at the camera thread as an example how many people immediately opted out of the camera as soon as CCP made it the default view. If CCP really values the player feed back at the testing phase on SISI they could do a few things to help drive interest: 1) Provide more updates when we feedback on the the new ideas and features thread so we know that our suggestions are being taken into consideration 2) When we provide feedback via the bug reporting tool have the GM's provide some feed back in a more timely manner or atleast ask for more details if required to help address identified issues. Currently I have 3 tickets across 3 accounts that are open for "Beta" camera related issues still open pending acknowledgement from months ago 3) Ask for more mass tests on incoming changes, make upcoming changes more visibile via the launcher (as I stated above I don't think a high percentage of the player base are actively monitoring the forums weekly, or let alone even come here at all) We want to help make this game last CCP, because honestly alot of us care about what happens to this game. If there is no incentive or reinforcement our feedback is being taken seriously except as a reactionary action to a change after a massive thread spawns, what do you expect? If enough players of the sample size that touch the test server say that the idea maybe needs some rework, or it doesn't mesh with the game, take our feedback, roll the change out for now and rethink it. Don't throw it live on the test server and wait to be bombarded with negative feedback. I'm sure the Gong had more then enough people saying it didn't make sense in the first place, so there for you could have just taken it back to the drawing board and revised your design to make it work with the environment. This is just the way I'm looking it from an outside perspective. Obviously there is alot that goes on behind the scenes that we don't see and obviously things do fall between the cracks just like any developement cycle. I thank you for the work you do put into this experience, because with honestly this community despite the vitriol reaction you may receive at the end of day most players have some aspect of this game they enjoy, and in some cases this maybe the experience some put most of their free hours into. We only want to make this an overall better experience for all players, but you need to help us, help you. @dominousnolen

I had no idea this was coming, and the first time I heard it I was working a site in a WH solo so needless to say, its scared the (expliciative deleted) out of me. I get "Well we put out patch notes" but obviously it was somewhere that, unless you hang on the test servers, no one saw this coming as it came along side the DC et al. tiericide. Any other changes a player should read about, but a change to the active/passive nature of a DC won't figuratively give me a heart attack.
