Some devs clearly don't have enough good ideas or enough meaningful work to do.

I'd say you need to reread it, but it appears that you are very intent upon insisting that eve could never learn from another MMO, even if just in areas of UI polish. Some of us are capable of having wide varieties of gaming experiences. It makes us more objective and helps us to see potential changes fir the good that might have otherwise been missed. But if being a confused and overzealous EvE fanboy is the extent your experience and you are happy with that, great. Just try not to hold the rest of us back. |

EVE is the 12th MMO that I play, therefore I, unlike you, see where these kind of changes are leading us, and it is NOT for the good of EVE!
Now, where exactly is this name change a "UI polish" as you state?! o.O
You sir, are a troll! |

UI specifically, maybe not. General usability and search functionality yes. Which is a good thing and in the end ties closely into the UI. This is a good thing. |

And at that I'm done. When you get back to the issue instead of posts with pure insults I'll be back to continue the conversation should I feel so inclined. |

Don't bother. This whole purpose of this thread is not discussion of the new missile names. It's him bitching about it, gathering bitching from others who don't like it (check the OP), and insulting anyone trying to have a reasonable argument as to why maybe this is better. |

I figured i would eventually run across some advantage to the new names, but I have seen no real advantage yet and plenty of frustration. Sorting through a pile of missiles is more taxing than before, peeling a few meta microwarps from loot makes me feel like I just started playing again, yet I haven't seen a practical reason that this is better. Bring back our Y-T8s, dammit! |

Many people bitching means, there is something wrong.
In this thread, there are many players stating how stupid, unnecessary and wrong this all is, and
a few people who troll like: "hey, the new names are quite cool, arent they?!" because they get no attention in RL.
Besides, no one had a reasonable argument, yet, not in support of these changes. |

No, no and no. Yes i like the new names as now i dont have to check which is a mwd or ab in the name. Its linear and easier to understand. Was it a good step, yes. Was it necessary, no

it will take getting used to but in a month or so the new names will be memorized |

Renaming them (and a lot of other stuff) with names that make sense is a good idea.
The new names are dumb, and only make sense to a select few that must've been sharing the same bottle of vodka at the time.
Anyone with any sense has already left town. |

Where Do you actually start reading a name? (I start at the first word)
Imagine I am a trader. (I really happen to be one)
And I trade a lot of missiles. (really, thats what I do for a living)
It used to be that way, that you know what it is by the first word of the name.
(scourge tells you, it is a heavy missile, and its kinetic, thats 2 in 1 omfg!)
Now further imagine, I have a lot of trade orders, and now guess how that looks with everything having the same name (first word)!
Pretty much what you get when you type one of those names into market search, just mor irritating.
Now, smartass/fanboy/dev alt/forum troll, tell me, how is this better than it used to be?!? |

From a creative perspective, I don't like the new names. They could be much better. Not a bad thought though. |

Yes. Yes thats it. No attention in RL.

Not a fan. Dry, boring (and still slightly confusing) names. Makes new eden seem a little blander.
I never understood why they couldn't put S,M,L on the icon of the prop mods like guns, and even extend that to S1, M4 etc for meta. SIMPLE.
The previous meta names I never had a problem with, as you went from meta 1 to 4 the names just sounded cooler and more verbose. Telling which was a frigate or cruiser AB, MWD etc always tripped me up.

I like the changes.
Argueably, some of the old names were cooler, but the new ones just make more sense, already got used to them pretty much.

I wonder how they got to that decision...
Was it a "hey, we rename something and call it a feature" thingy?
Or was it more like, mhh, lets just try this out?
Or were they just too bored doing actual work?
Or was, again, an intern in charge of game design?
Whatever it was, how did they come up with such crappy names?! |

Instead of pointlessly changing missile names, why not make them actually useful in pvp for the new players???
.. you know, so they don't have time to stick their finger up at you, align to wherever, have a smoke and a bio break, and then warp out before your missiles hit ..
This would go much further toward helping new players by making the weapon type many of them choose actually useful.

I've tried to get used the new names, I have. But most of them make no sense. Upgraded is worse than limited, everyone using prototype and experimental mods just to name a few issues. Also the new missiles names are still no more helpful to find out what they do, unless you count trauma because of all the trauma and drama inflicted by the poor naming schemes.
I'm sure if you actually put effort into renaming, a lot less people would be complaining about it. |

Pretty much this. My own issue is not with the renaming itself, it's with the poor choices for names, and the not very well thought out naming schema. This could have been a really good useful feature (sure some would still complain because wah change), but instead it's rather disappointing. |
