I really wonder if CCP is going back to the old Incarna days now. So much messing around and acting as if they knew everything better.
For the renames. Yeah hey, might be nice, if they had a structure to it and the new names were actually making more sense. But for me they dont. For your attention! Market order modification fee (anti-botting, more interesting trading) https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=78351 |

Kinetic energy delivers such a descriptive wound.
'Blunt implement' = 'Trauma' 'Fireballs' = 'Scorch marked pants' 'Arms and legs everywhere' = 'Explosion' 'Electronic damage' = 'EMP shockwaves'
Last one, bit iffy.
Usually, when something gets rebranded, the new brand name appears 'everywhere', however I think some places got forgotten:

Who owns this database? I think they should be poked a couple of times with a Blunt implement. ---- CONCORD arrested two n00bs yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off. |

If name changing and a game adapting/developing is so bad...
I demand that all new things implemented since the game was released be removed/undone, so that I can experience the game the way it was originally designed !

meh can't be perfect you know? But Ill be level headed enough to say, yup screwed up by 12x.
There are alot of numbers out there though and even worse estimates such as Eve possibly nearing the 400k sub mark which is alot better than the quater billion spent into the sinking mmo ship known as ToR which requires minmal 500k subs to operate according to BW and all indicators are saying they're are projected to go below that very soon as the 3 month 2 month subs are up and the desperation to the free to play weekend (whcih is rather shorter than eves 60 day offers at time then again both games are at different time scales.)
Bottom line about the name change complaints though is mostly unfounded.
We got them to change names twice and according to chaos test server we got a partial comprimise going on. Which basically changes alot of items to have a meta prefix for a name now.
We understood the need to get rid of meta guessing. We understood the need for uniformity. We understood that renaming items isnt a form of dumbing down the game it doesnt boost anything it doenst nerf anything and the names ultimately still doesnt effect how well an idiot can fail with said module when its used wrong. We didnt like how flavor was being taken now the new chaos changes indicate we won there and falvor names are staying. We didnt like turma missile names for some reason, thus scourge changes. We loved the new implant renames.
Thus progress in some areas not so much in others there are about 10k items it will take a while to rename them all.

WE did? No you did.
I could care less about the renaming, other than the fact that it's causing more confusion than is really required.
I think many of us however, are scratching are heads at the incredible RUSH to get this stuff done, when so many other game play issues could use attention.....

There were some items in serious need of renaming (The AB's and MWD's for example)
However, why the **** would you rename the Invuln? you just added a word to it for no good reason.
Renaming SOME items was a great idea, but its gone too far now... |

Well slight problem with saying just I,
It would indicate that I am alone in this issue. Which with the existence of the OP im clearly no where near alone. Along with 200 pages+ of combined compalints/feedback/support/counter support.
Also further interating ccp never blamed anyone on at least taking a step back keeping thier ears open and willing to re - renames.
I however am not scratching my head though guy doing the renames is only in charge of writing thus stuff like mission text, name of items, corp descriptions, item descriptions are all in its department, He has little to do with the other long standing issues. It would be like getting the avatar artists to work reducing lag.
None the less there are plenty of writing relating fixes they could have gone in and fixed but its all on a big todo list none the less.
They could be naming planets in all high sec and the moons if they where really running out of stuff to do.

So people unfamiliar with the game can look at an item and have some brief idea of WTF it may do and how well.
Really... CCP makes a good solid design change for once and every body is up in arms. The old names were convoluted unclear and bad game design. |

Ahem
I BELIEVE This was all announced in a dev blog few weeks ago.
http://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=9130 Here is the link for everyone who missed the discussion on the renaming of modules.
Sorry you all had your time to give feed back and make changes and suggestions. So too late to whine and complain now. |

Useless changes, CCP learned much less than I thought from the massive feedback thread I got the impression that the changes would stop to hardwirings for now, but that was wrong assumption
Stuff hopping around in various lists, killboards and utilities breaking down... plenty of extra work learning old and fixing things again. My favourite updates right after the neocom fiasco. Bullbrownie is bullbrownie even you try to serve it on nice plate.

Nope - I see no mention at all of Invulnerability Fields.
I could cope with Adaptive Invulnerability Fields if there were also Non-adaptive Invulnerability Fields, but as yet I've been unable to find any.

To Quote CCP
Armor Coating/Armor Hardener/Armor Plating Energized/Shield Resistance Amplifier/Shield Hardener
Every module that boosts either armor or shield resistance has gone under the knife. In addition to adapting them to the global Meta 1-4 scheme, we've replaced the words "Reflective," "Reactive" and "Magnetic" with the modules' relevant damage types (EM, Explosive and Kinetic, respectively).
One would assume that invuln would go to adaptive. pointless change but whatever im not going to lose sleep over it. |

What irritates me is this Scourge vs Trauma nonsense. According to the dev/patch the Trauma missiles are being renamed Scourge. In the Crucible 1.5 static data dump the Trauma missiles -are- renamed to Scourge.
In the actual live client they are -Trauma- and not Scourge.
WTF!?
Look if CCP wants to play grab-ass with names then go ahead. It's their game. Wish they'd actually setup a system first but that's me. But this takes asshattery to a brand new level. |

It almost guarantees random collateral damage.
It's about as smart as a brain damaged, epileptic, stoned monkey with a handgrenade.

Why can't we name our own items?
The official name - the name that appears in market - can be whatever. But I should be able to rename a trauma heavy to a kinetic heavy for my character's personal use.
Surely if I've got a crate of missiles in the hold, I can put a sticker on the side that says 'Kinetic'?
This of course leads on to a bigger issue of why we can't nickname everything in the overview. Sick of my screen being filled with useless text when I only need to see a few letters. Never make eye contact with someone while eating a banana. |

A smartbomb in the real world has some form of guidance system to control its fall.
It's only in video games that smartbomb is used to describe a dumb carpet-bombing manoeuvre. I blame 'Defender' from the 80's!
