That icon - chat from eve gate - Does this mean that Chat channels will be accessible Out-Of-Game, from Evegate?

Also, is the blue hilighting of your character just for CCP, or will this be a universal change for everyone? it makes it a lot easier to see what your character has written, so I hope it's for everyone

If you had more time, would you have completely ignored our ideas and come up with your own?

More seriously, those all look like excellent updates. I particularly like the compact member list showing standings.

Chat in eve-gate? c/d?

These are some great changes and they really make me happy, keep up the good work!

Couple things though:

Question: How can someone be blocked but neither online or offline?

Also, since your making changes that affect the local view, I'm just going to go out and say what I think many would really like that would be most helpful in local, counts of how many pilots of each standing type.

Even with the compact view, if you are in a fleet of 100 and you jump into a system with 175 reds you have to do some scrolling and tallying to figure out even whether you might want to run or fight. But this is precious time you might not have and it would be really helpful to know that immediately.

I almost cried with joy when I saw the change made to the watchlist..

You have made every logi pilot's "Bestest Devs Evar!" list.

This blog is total win. CCP Punkturis best Punkturis.

Also - CCP Svarthol told a blonde joke, c/d?

So will I be able to hide my lvl 5 skills?

I'm so awesome they make browsing skills annoying.

love the watch list being made bigger but could you not have made it 20 double what it was why 20 well easy

1 fc 1 wc 5 sc is 7 plus 10 logis (almost standard in fleets to have 1/5- 1/4 as logi) so that 17 plus any others your fc asks you to add ie cyno ships ect

Keep up the great work improving the small things, I am looking forward most to the watchlist and local changes! Being a logi pilot will be a whole lot easier now, and my laptop won't cry when I try to load local chat with 500+ people.

One question though, will the option to remove characters portrait's affect the members list and the chat window? or will it affect one or the other with separate options? Personally I would like to see the smug faces of people as we AAAAAA chain in local, while not having to look at the 100 other people in the member list.

Thanks team BFF. I mentioned it in the survey thing but ill say it again here.

These small changes have alot of effect on the game. New features are nice but i think improvements to old systems like the ones your making are amazing.

A massive anoyance i have is that when you board a shield ship from an SMA it comes out at half shield. Why is this neccisary? Armor ships dominate PvP already.

Corporation roles are also an issue especially living in wormholes! It would be nice if CEO's could add new layers of roles into the corp as opposed to just the default ones!

You may have won the internet.

@CCP Punkturis Are you guys thinking/planning to release a web version of evegate that will allow us to put skills in que rather then constantly having to login ingame all the time?

CCP

Have a look at this watchlist mockup made by Durzel on the failheap-challenge.com forums

http://www.superficial.net/eve/eve-better-watchlist.png

Bigger bars + visible capacitor levels would be brilliant.

I think it would be useful to have your own character show up in a different color in chat, like green? I mean, obviously, CCP could be special and see themselves as blue, but I'd see myself as green.

Good stuff, I like it


Little question: will shift+F1 work as well besides shift+click?

Very cool stuff! This is what makes us happy CCP! Keep it coming. I REALLY like the new overload upgrades, it will help a lot.

One suggestion though.

The chat channel upgrades are awesome, but can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE allow us to sort them by standing? Local specifically.

Very nice, but what I noticed immediately: Why not moving the search box to the empty space on the top right (next to the other dropdown)? That would match other windows' layouts and save that one line. If it's mentioned already, sorry, haven't had any time to read other replies yet.

Wonderful work BFF.

Please take note.

The whole, milking common sense solutions from the forums and prioritizing them, idea is making your customer base super happy.

Being pie in the sky dreamers from a development stand point only sort of worked out for Steve jobs.

You have found your rhythm.

Now stay the course!

Why do you have to see yourself at all?

Ok I'm so gonna buy team BFF a round of beer at fanfest

Between that and the ability to modify the watch list, you have done enough to make this update awesome.

Nice work, CCP!

"HEY MOM"

All in all welcome changes IMO. I would add or change a couple of things though.

The skill queue similar lists (charactter sheet) could really use a 'collapse all categories/expand all categories' button. That way it's a bit quicker and simpler to find something almost halfway down the list if you know which category it is in.

I would also rename the 'online' and 'offline' labels because I think they're confusing. Changing 'offline' to 'AFK' is probably the quickest and easiest change to do.

Going over the devblogs did bookmarks in overview actualy get added? If it was where is the easy to find on/ off button I cant seem to find it.

So when? at least edit the dev blog so you do not get asked 1000 times about it on this thread.

Cool, so now I have a new way to accidentally turn off my modules... Har har.

Would it be possible to change the cursor when shift is pressed and the cursor is over a module?

Here is a crazy idea:
CLOCK with LOCAL TIME ZONE !!
So I know what time it is

Phew.. no nerf of anything this time

In the local chat screenshot, you can see neutrals [=] have a grey background color.

In my client, all neutrals have no background color.

How is it possible, to get a grey (or even any other?) background color for neutrals?

Often I dont see neutral on my overview in time, because they have no background color.

I really want them to have colors! (yellow is my favourite)

so how do I use eve chat from evegate now?

Dear Punkturis,

Your idea to book a cosy cottage for us at the weekend is a swell idea. I shall select some fine vin rouge for us as we get comfortable. We could listen to relaxing music, on the eve jukebox (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bPSmWdcXHs) as our adventure getaway gets warmed up.

I could picture us laughing and getting tipsy as we browse thousands of spreadsheets about these little things, and playing with idea's. We snuggle up close and whisper sweet nothings to each other, like why when one double tap's the jukebox top frame and it, as if by magic, turns into a sexy wee mini player. Until, one jump's into a system or docks up, it, as if by moar magic, restores it's self. Although I'm not quite sure what you mean by "shuush honey, I'll batphone TEAM BFF" but I have every confidence in you.

As the night moves on, we finish up our wine by the moonlight and do a little nightswimming. We stagger up to the beach panting and all dreamy eye'd talking out of breath about how the minimzed jukebox might be able to have functional icons on it. Then you draw < II > in the sand. Mind reader !!

Oh, I got the chocolates you sent me, I did like the note "wtf!? try hotkeys, creeper!" and a wee handgun drawing on it. Bless!

I have to go now and book 1 x Cosy Cottage and 1 x Snowmobile to pick you up.

Bubye

xoxo < ---- Too SoonGäó ?

(but really, nice work Team BFF liking it o7)

As a logi pilot with a 28" Screen and many eve friends i would like to have a watchlist that can have unlimited entries!
