After looking at usage metrics, it became apparent that there was a need to establish a clearer set of folders relevant to activities in EVE, as well as reducing the number of unanchored icons (icons that are outside any folder).
To do this, we took a few factors into consideration, including the most commonly used windows in the client and the most popular activities in New Eden.
In what world are players using the PLEX Vault or NES Store windows more than the Wallet or Regional Market windows?
Seriously, what is so hard to get about this? Every damned thing that happens, someone bitches about something else entirely.
CCP: âOur EMTs have completed an overhaul of our equipment and procedures which should see an improvement in saving lives.â Players: âHow dare your EMTs work on improving medical response when they should be streamlining the tax code?!?!?â
Different people within CCP have different jobs. Even the people who are all lumped together into âdevelopersâ, just like not all âpublic servantsâ are legislators.
This is not a thing you should want new players to have to suffer through. Just because we were masochistic enough to do it doesnât mean they need to be. The more scaleable that cliff is, the more people who try the game are likely to stay with the game.
Seems like an okay set of changes (minus the top-level PLEX Vault - really?) that no one was asking for, just like the launcher changes. Really wish CCPâs âusage metricsâ were being used for capital ship changes instead of Neocom changes. Weird to have non-sense changes when we havenât gotten a follow up to their busted chat client and their statement that theyâre taking a âserious lookâ at capital ship balance.
Itâd be great if youâd consider bringing back different colors for the icons so they can be identified at glance, there are just too many simmilar looking rectangle or circle icons.
Will we ever get actual customization for the menu? I do not need that useless Agency window in the main tray. I need that rubbish hidden below as many layers of lead as possible. I want other things, more useful things in the main tray that are currently hidden below said lead.
since the Activity Tracker and the Map is in windowmode
would it be possible to get a windowsmode for the Ship Tree & the New Eden Store?
would be really cool
seen this on sisi, thought to myself, new pilots are gonna have fun finding their ship hanger, for the love of Bob, the most important hanger in the game and it doesnât have itâs own section, i mean look at it like this, new guy joins game, new guy hits neocom, follows down to ships and canât understand why the ship hanger is not with the section for ships.
What a joke. Who uses the NES and Plex wallet more than the market and their own wallet? Canât wait till you guys miss your income targets and lose half the purchase price.
Hey, people bitching without even reading the blog. Hereâs some relevant quotes:
Donât be alarmed however, this should not change your current state. It will only affect newly created characters!
While these changes will affect the folder system within the Neocom, they will have minimal effect on the Quick Access Bar itself.
As we go forward, weâll be looking into more holistic solutions as to how pilots can pin windows to their Neocom Quick Access Bar.
Moreover maybe some people confuse Neocom with Quick Access Bar. CCP it may not be a bad idea to add a screenshot straight from SISI like this to the dev blog. Click on it to expand it:
âŚas some people seem to never have gone past picture books and you can talk to them only with screenshots. Why people come to â â â â â without even reading what the changes are?
And God forbid I donât mean something legit like colored buttons.
Or Ship section still having a button for bays. I even have my own suggestion CCP - when this goes live, please give easy access to how changes look for the new players because some people like me who like to help them will have possibly hard way to tell new players what is where in Neocom, as Neocom will be different for old and new players.
While Iâm all for making ways for newbies to learn easier, the sheer amount of stuff means there is always gonna be someone somewhere who needs things pointed out, hopefully only at 1st.
