While ago we had forums in eveonline.com
Now we have 8 websites scattered to browse the information from.
Good going. Really impressive usability upgrades.

Looks very good to me. Brings the eve website from something that looked like it was made in 2002(and probably was) into 2012 and the next generation of websites, and really shows off the game much better to new players. I was very impressed by the star map and ship viewer. Could information be ordered slightly better? Maybe, yes, but really, I couldn't find a thing on the old site anyways. |

For you the new front page is
http://community.eveonline.com
Use that.
Also I think that the new eveonline page is very solid and informative bunch for any new players. Thumbs up for squeezing even that much information about the vastness of EVE into newbie-digestible format. |

eve is pretty complicated, thats why i was a fan of having listed in one place and thus easy to find: you know its in there.
Now it takes a good while to click everything and find what you are after, I dont mind new things for new and old players general improvments. This new one is pretty to look at for sure, no doubt, gotta just get used to it (or make more BMs :P) |

Posting in an I hate change thread.
Personally I prefer paper money too, but change can be good.
This is my signature.-á There are many others like it, but this one is mine. |

This isnt about the change, its about the loss of an easy way to navigate the site in exchange for the pretty pictures etc.

Well, not bad, looks fine in the IGB...then went to check the videos section... hoLY CRAP it shows the VIDEO, first and only thing that went in my head was, finally browser supports videos...sadly it never moved from 1st frame...dammnit all.
Really hoped for this one.
Edit - damn small ship list. O look..a Raven, 806m long..ok, why is the raven pic the one before the V3 redesign? |

the lack of polish is sad.
... like having the login dialog for the community site tell us about exclusive content on "the EVE Insider" when that section has been removed.
Quote:Please enter your accounts username and password below to get access to the EVE Insider. The EVE Insider features developer blogs, access to the ingame news and announcements, character information, event pages and buddy program and other EVE related information and player submitted content such as screenshots and art. EVE Insider is only accessible for players of EVE Online. does anybody at CCP even read these things? at least once every few years? devblogs only accessible to subscribers?
... like still using the old design for the support pages (yes, I know that they'll eventually be moved away) instead of moving them to the slightly revamped, fixed-width design used for dev blogs.
... like having a different EVE icon on the community section (Linkage) than on the forums and the main eveonline.com site (Linkage)

Loosing basic funtionality for it is bad (<- this is the one I have a problem with)

I love it. As an EVE player I don't go through a chain of buttons to get to where I want to go anyways... I've long since made bookmarks to what I use most. Forums, Mail, Account Management.
The front page is gorgeous, which is good for new players and friends who you want to show EVE to. This game needs more new blood, and the new website should help.
It's better than the eveisreal website ever was though. This one is cleaner, smoother, and doesn't lag up your browser. |

Before:
1. load eveonline.com
2. load devblog page
Now:
1. load eveonline.com
2. load community.eveonline.com
3. load devblog page
It is not about hating the change. It is about pushing bling over usability. This is just as bad design as the new neocom, where simple and working functionality and features were removed to make it look more pretty and have more "cool" menus.
Neither is working well any more.
...and as I know that some will soonTM say "bookmark to community.eveonline.com and live with it" I have to ask question - should I bookmark to support. account management and forums as well? Like to have eve-online compatible browser configuration you would need 8 bookmarks in links bar.... right?
Front page of websites should tie the site together, not provide only some graphical presentation for possible new customer with few $ to spare. You could have some nice attractive advertisement for them to click which would forward them to page like that.

You're playing EVE and complaining about having to go through several steps to do something common?
Don't get me wrong, I agree with you... but you'd think we EVE players would be accustomed to a bit of complexity and tedious effort. |

Might want to "clarify" what "basic functionality" is lost. Pro-tip. |

the functionality is loose, not lost. after some tightening the new website will be just fine.

I agree. The new site looks good. It will hopefully help get new people interested in EVE which is something we need. Personally I love the changes.

That'd be navigating between the dozens of subdomains eveonline.com now is. Neither is awesome, but basic usability testing (e.g. with any basic use case) would've easily shown the gist of it. Hell, most decent webdesigners would've been able to point it out in advance. |
