Don't get me wrong i think renaming needs to be done on some modules, but for the most part they already make sense in a lot of areas.
Everyone knows n-type is meta 4 for armor modules.
scouts are meta 4 for projectiles
'arbelasts' meta 4 missiles
proto type for rails. etc.
But dont dumb it down too much we still need complexity. |

They were more than fine as they were!
You are creating confusion for your current paying customers!
Your. Current. Customers.
These mythical future customers would adapt!
We did!
For the love of all that is good stop doing this!!!
We all adapted. CCP you need to realize you dont need to adapt to the rest of the worlds mmo model. I DONT CARE IF we are niche and we dont get many new players. The complexity eliminates 13 year olds from this game. |

You know instead of renaming crap. why not do the old suggestion of putting a number on the picture.
BUT!!!! instead of using the triangle use a square or something. |

Thanks for the feedback. It seems like the implants are being pretty well received (under the circumstances) but the missiles not so much. We'll sit down in the morning and look at the possible solutions. Thanks for posting!
Be sure to post what you guys talked about.
More communication = more happy players
Edit - 3 snipes in 1 forum thread hell yea. |

This.
Thanks for listening to us, ok guys now we need to come up with an easier naming scheme but keep it super sci-fi .
My thoughts on rails -
When you do the bg research on rail guns there are different types rail guns , coil, gauss etc and the way they are built are all different. Anyway i digress.
For rails
Railgun I - ok
my issue is with the carbide and 'scout' guns. See when searching for items the minmatar meta 4 are all 'scout' cannons so all I have to do is search for scout but it also brings up minmatar. which is bad. I would suggest carbine but that might get mixed up with the carbide as they are too similar. Also cannon seems a little too out there as when i think of cannon i dont think of a rail gun.
So here our my thoughts.
Railgun I
Plasma Armature Railgun
Carbide Railgun
Compressed Coil Railgun
Prototype Gauss Gun
Railgun II
- I am trying to keep comformity using guns in all of them. But looking at this random wiki page There are some interesting variations to the rail gun.
Now as for blasters - I have always found that was confusing until i could use t2 then i said screw trying to remember it.
Limited, regulated, anode, modal. Now I think anode and modal are cool and easy to remember for 3 and 4, limited and regulated dont seem to fit the scheme. As i think about it more they dont seem to fit at all, any of them. When being issued a set of large armorments I like to think of a serial number or something on them.
so for blasters why not make a naming scheme kind of similar to that of implants.
Light neutron blaster I
LNB-100 neutron blaster
LNB-200 limited neutron blaster
etc.
This preserves some of the original naming scheme but also gives a prefix similar to that of implants which makes it easier to search and preserve some uninqueness to naming.
As for others give me a few I think all minmatar guns should be renamed to the appropriate ammo they use from spare change to volkswagons. I for one welcome the new 1400 series volkswagon launcher II. |

While icons are nice, the issue that CCP keeps bringing up is how will a new player know the difference when buying from the market menu?
Most of the idea ccp has is to make market searchign more fluid not only for players but easier on the system. |

Thats easier said than done. But a good point, rather than renaming modules would it be easier to give the market overhaul?
say when you browse to an item it has the meta icon on the right side next to the info bar? or maybe on the left before the item name. |
