Here's an explanation of what icons are and the problem they present with scaling for high res displays.

That is eves UI. that's actually false. the UI is worse because the preferred image format for PDFs is vector. "The whole point" of the PDF document format is consistency across hardware and resolutions, and EVE's UI breaks because it is raster (not vector).
anyway. I really feel like icons in the space viewport is a travesty.

Everyone realizes, though, if you get a 4k display and then also double the dimensions of your icons, you've negated the benefit of a higher pixel density display.

All my views are my own - never be afraid to post with your main, unless you're going to post some dumb shit

I suppose I should have said in the case of icons. I wasn't trolling but I happen to disagree with your assertion that EVE textures look better on a 4k display.

You could look at it another way. If you get a 4k display and then wish for bigger anything, do you think maybe the 4k display wasn't the best idea in this case

You do realize what you are saying is essentially "CCP didn't make a system that fit my special snowflake setup" right? |

Lots of people use TVs. One of my corpies cant use anything else because he has a disease that keeps him from using a desk. |

Don't lie everyone knows anyplace on eve's forums is a crap place to go to get anything to the devs. Rather we are forced to use third party sites line reddit

I kind of want to pull this back up to the top. Now that laptops, both gaming and business are coming out with 4k as the standard. As well as with GPUs all able to handle 4k rendering. I think this would be a fantastic time to revisit getting UI scaling a bump in the cap.
If you do downscale the game, you will notice the font and textures becoming fuzzier due to the screen not displaying as crisply. I even notice the font not being as crisp in any game that doesn't render well at the screen resolution. |

I said it before, adoption will ONLY accelerate. It isn't going anywhere. If CCP was smart theyd redo the coding entirely to make it easier to scale because 5k and 6k is actually beginning to actually cross peoples minds too. Get ahead of the curve. Future proof arguably the most critical thing in the client. No UI no game. |
