- Any thoughts about increasing cynabal pg/cpu?
- AA + HDR; currently it seems some cards can do it with a bit of driver tweaking while others can't, any work being done in this area? One frustration I had is that nvidia users whose cards could, when tweaked, handle hdr and aa in oblivion could also do it in eve. My ati cards however which can do the same in oblivion fails in eve. Hdr with no jaggies would be awesome.
- Large autocannon dps perhaps a little low when compared with other close range weapons even taking the relatively versatile dmg output into consideration?
- I seem to remember a discussion years ago about tagging items with the manufacturers name ending with the conclusion that it would add too much to the database; any plans to revisit the idea with all the need for speed improvements since then?
- What would you think about reintroducing the solar system radar style map to the scanner? Having it on the f11 map isn't the same, buddy list logon/off portraits can obscure parts of it at crucial moments, when it re-draws after jumping into a system it can add a little client lag, and when playing in lower resolutions or in windowed mode it takes up a chunk of the screen.
- How about reducing the collision zones around some objects in space (mostly I'm thinking about asteroids), so that you only get stuck on an onject if you're actually stuck on it, not just somewhere in the vicinity.
- I realise it's a consequence of tracking calculations but wouldn't it make sense to not be able to miss objects sufficiently large (relative to your weapon's size) when both you and the target are stationary?
- How about a little feature letting us toggle buddy list online/offline notification portraits on and off? Something I used to experience a lot before I wiped my addressbook (again), especially during large fleet fights with people crashing, people logging on to join the fight etc, was ending up with a column or two of red and green portraits laggily trying to display themselves to me while covering up parts of my overview or drone control window. Obviously clearing the buddy list is a quick fix but shouldn't be necessary imo.
- Can we pleeeeease get a little addition to the character sheet that says where our clone is located?
- Player adds on billboards still on the table for some time in the future?
- Any plans to make pirate/faction variants of the bs's that currently lack them?
- How about destructible asteroids, allowing for proper scorched earth policies? Not sure how it would have to be balanced though so as not to result in a bit of a farce being perpetrated by random frigates decimating high ends all over eve. I think it merits thought though.
- Regarding ambulation, player owned stations and the enemy: since there will be no combat in stations (at least initially) will there be other ways to control access to your station's facilities by people hostile to you that are already docked? Also if we're supposed to own and run a station and can walk around in the docks and control access to the station with standings, does it still make sense to be unable to impound/forcibly eject/destroy docked undesirables? Any brainstorming been done along these lines?
- You know those ravens that populate such a massive percentage of 0.0 belts and are flown by people in npc corps, alt corps or blatant farming corps that always cloak or log or cloak and log within 15seconds of you jumping into system with them? They're bastards aren't they? Sorry, not much of a question.
