dreddish	Posted - 2007.04.29 00:48:00 - [31] yea the zoom was reversed as well.
handbanana Caldari	Posted - 2007.04.29 01:01:00 - [32] The map is borked, and far over complicated. I navigate more often using my assets window these days.. Really hard to do exploration that way though..

Really hard to do exploration that way though.. Yep -same here. Assets menu got good last year , search/sell etc. Cannot use asset menu via map anymore tho - thats tricky now. Asset window is a GOOD, recent addition.
Tar Ancalimon	Posted - 2007.04.29 01:25:00 - [34] /signed Map sucks, stopped using it. Unless I absolutely have too. And then I curse at it the whole time.

Ombey	Posted - 2007.04.29 06:34:00 - [36] You may like to consider using my 2d maps, which are in a PDF- follow the linky in my sig -- 2d EveMaps
Loyal Servant Caldari The Short Bus Squad The SUdden Death Squad	Posted - 2007.04.29 06:45:00 - [37] Edited by: Loyal Servant on 29/04/2007 06:41:47 CCP completely ignores things about the map. They were really proud of it, and that is OK too. Problem is, in a fleet the map is going to get you killed. Yes, CCP - you will DIE if you use this map in a fleet or gang setting. It will: A. Crash B. Get stuck C. Takes too long to open/close (instant is _NOT_ instant!) D. Cause graphics corruption type stuff (see crash/get stuck) So, Yeah.... Again... /signed TSBS - Eve's Premier podding service!
31i73 BGG League of Abnormal Gentlemen	Posted - 2007.04.29 07:03:00 - [38] Map is handy sometimes, but opening map takes long time, and you can't choose to NOT have it swirl around when opened and closed :/
LVSOCOM Minmatar Vale Heavy Industries Molotov Coalition	Posted - 2007.04.29 07:37:00 - [39] Edited by: LVSOCOM on 29/04/2007 07:34:47 NOT SIGNED The BEST thing about the new map system is the Solar System map. If you've used scan probes, you should know why this is such a nice addition. The biggest issue seems to be with the lengthy transition (even in instant) and troubled information menus. Reverting the entire map system back to pre-rev. is NOT needed and wouldn't solve the already existant transition (jumping for one) bugs in the pre-rev map.
Ronin Reborn Dark-Rising Fallen Souls	Posted - 2007.04.29 07:49:00 - [40] Though the solar system map is sometimes useful, the eve map is flat out terrible. Why do I need to see a zoom everytime I open up a map? Maps in RL are purpose made to show as much information while still being easy to use. After all a map is a tool, not an excuse to showcase fancy 3d effects just because you can. Less effects=less lag=more utility

Sean Dillon Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.04.29 08:15:00 - [41] I said from the beginning that this new starmap sucks. The map background is way to dark, and thats why you can't see the lines drawn between waypoints when you zoom out.
Kateryne Minmatar KAOS. KA0S Theory	Posted - 2007.04.29 08:31:00 - [42] It's a shame that CCP seems to have started to not give a crap about what we say on the forums anymore, or at least aren't bothering to dignify us with replies to the multitude of "signed" threads that clearly demonstrate their playerbase aren't happy with certain features of their otherwise great game... Oh and signed!
ZuN3 kleptomaniacs	Posted - 2007.04.29 08:45:00 - [43] /Signed. Old map and old scanner with integrated mini map please. Did they change the scanner for a reason? To make it a bit harder to use or something, maybe they decided F11 was an under-used key.
Cletus Graeme Caldari Bladerunners Mordus Angels	Posted - 2007.04.29 09:50:00 - [44] /signed new map is pants
Qolde Minmatar Guardian Heroes Inc.	Posted - 2007.04.29 10:04:00 - [45] Originally by: handbanana I navigate more often using my assets window these days.. Really hard to do exploration that way though.. I thought I was the only one. I, Qolde, hereby sign this thread. The system map is nice, but everything else in the new map has to go. The transitions, the lines you can't see when you zoom out, the fact that it's upside down. WTF are you guys smoking? Never get popped again!
claire xxx Infinitus Odium	Posted - 2007.04.29 11:10:00 - [46] Edited by: claire xxx on 29/04/2007 11:16:46 /Signed the old map was better all they needed to change was the 2D mini map on system scanner The old map was easy to read the new one reminds me of looking at a haystack on acid
AsSalaam FireTech	Posted - 2007.04.29 11:19:00 - [47] Undocking with the map open leads to all sorts of hilarious weirdness. The PDF maps are an example of how the EVE maps should be, but you guys should be able to add so much more detail than those due to having an interactive interface. /signed
Cipher7 Keepers of the Holy Bagel SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.04.29 11:27:00 - [48] The new map sucks and the new voice sucks. Eve from 1.5 years ago was better than it is today.
Miyau Agony Unleashed	Posted - 2007.04.29 11:47:00 - [49] Originally by: Cipher7 Eve from 1.5 years ago was better than it is today. Nonsense. But yeah the new star map is pretty annoying. Full of pointless animation and popups that get in the way of dragging it around. If you don't have it flattened it presents you with a crazy useless orientation (why can't it remember where I had it before?). How about getting some ombey-like 2D maps in-game? I think pretty much everyone prefers those.
Piotr Anatolev Gallente The Geriatrics	Posted - 2007.04.29 13:31:00 - [50] Originally by: LVSOCOM The BEST thing about the new map system is the Solar System map. Aye, for sure. The old 2D system browser should ve been upgraded to a 3D one. Imagine two tabs on that old window layout, one that says System map and another saying Star map - or even beaning tearable into two separate windows on the UI. The system map with a sidepanel showing scanner and probe settings/options,launched probes list etc etc while the star map has a sidepanel showing autopilot options and waypoint/route list.
