I know the old system of names was slightly confusing...
But I WANT THEM BACK
How could drakes live without their beloved scourge missiles, and how will Phoenixs/Nags do without their god Thor... Even tho Trauma is quite nice it's not conveying the differences if were just all throwing the same ammo around.
Making things better is one thing.... but EVE isnt supposed to be idiot proof... were supposed to get rid of the idiots... or at least let them get ganked in their expensive ships...
Please bring back the proper names so we can not have boring missiles like other ammos...
I will always feel bad throwing Mjolnir into anything other than a bomber...
Besides... shouldnt Kinetic have been Mjolnir since it's the name for Thor's Hammer... Nova just sounds bad too...

So the whole basis of your proposal is because you don't like the names.
Got it.

You expected some other argument for the reversal of the change of a name?
these names became iconic with their uses and ships with those of us who are older players... No real reason to change them in the first place |

I agree. There wasn't much of a reason to change the names in the first place. However...the change is done. Might as well just move on with it instead of reverting them back and wasting even more time just to do that. In the future though...I would say CCP should evaluate whether such a minor change is REALLY needed.

I want too old names back!
If I wanted missiles for my ship I am currently flying, I only needed to type that specific name in the search, now they all have the same name which is not only confusing, but even very cheap!!
Eve should not be optimized for idiots or noobs who cant remember the missile name he needs, if you fly a ship you learn those munition names after few days of usage.
A lot of individuality is lost with the new terrible naming, I used to fly a bomber a lot in the past so Mjolnirs were torpedoes for the amarr bomber, I associate only them to this name and I'm very attached to that old name - now they all are mjolnirs, even if the name doesnt fit at all. The same goes for fhe naming for other items like AB/MWD!!!
CCP, Give us old names back FFS! Dont dumb eve down for idiots! |

Meh...after looking them over it frankly doesn't bother me either way. New missile names although simplified across all sizes works fine. Old system worked fine too. EvE is not about PvP.-á EvE is about the SANDBOX! - CCP!-á Open the door!!! |

NEW MISSILE NAMES EASIER TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU ONLY HAVE ONE ARM AND ONE HAND TO COUNT ON IT HELPS TO HAVE FOUR NAMES TO REMEMBER FOR DAMAGE TYPES! STOP BEING A WHINY TWO ARM! DOWN WITH THE TWO ARM MENACE! |

This is the kind of crap that is driving players out. Ordinance has different names for a reason. It differentiates between class and damage. Assigning similar names is just moronic. Change the names back.

OLD NAMES WERE TARDHARDED AND WHILE THE NEW NAMES COULD USE SOME WORK USING A NAME FOR THE TYPE OF DAMAGE ROCKS. NOW IF YOU HAVE TECH TWO MISSILES YOU KNOW RAGE IS SHORT RANGE JAVELIN IS LONG RANGE AND TRAUMA IS KINETIC DAMAGE. |

Awww... You have to have your caps lock on to get your point across. Are you clenching your fists and stomping your feet too?
There are gameplay functions within the game that need to be addressed. Renaming the missiles was really low on the priority list and not necessary. I've been playing for 8 years and never had a problem with it.
Now go to your room young man. You're on time out....

Also what is nice about the old names for example is if someone says Scourge, you know exactly the size of missile they are talking about. It makes it much easier to differentiate the different classes of missiles from one another. |

I can't help feeling that something of what makes the EVE universe a rich and interesting place has been lost by the streamlined naming convention.
They should as least add the original label string to the item description, if they are not doing so already.

scourge does have a better ring to it then trauma, what is this doctors online?
Having the same name for damage type makes things simpler, consistent. But that name should be cool, heavy missiles being the most commonly used with the popular scourge, scourge should be the name of kinetic. |

I whole-heartedly agree. I mostly miss the sheer diversity of such interesting names. Take 'Gremlin' and 'Thorn' then compare those to 'Cataclysm' and 'Devastator'. The bigger missiles always sounded so powerful, and now that element has gone.
This change was unnecessary - CCP could surely have simply added a damage type suffix, if they wanted to simplify things. |

Bumping.
The trolls here have not formed a decent argument as to why the name change doesn't matter. It does.
Yous are all just trolling
The older names were pure win, not least because they gave Eve online a certain flavour that the current names are not capable of emulating. I for one will always associate the 'Paradise' class missile with the better days of Eve gone by. IMO CCP need help understanding just what is ********, and what isn't. |

Well the new system is just fine, I really enjoyed the old system, having each missile type with its own name just added some fluff, something I sorta enjoyed
However, when ever I have to type Mjolnir to find my EM missiles, I get little mad |

Is there any other type of missile except Scourge....ummm...I mean Trauma?
It's just a name and no real hassle to remember after awhile.
I am sure CCP have better things to fix than missile names.

Yes this is true, because many people do not know the word can also be used to describe a decelerating motion or a slowing energy force (retardation) which is where ******** derives. |
