It’s disgusting, totally unfit to get valuable and in-depth feedback and encourages low quality conversations dominated by adhs nerds with the attention span of a racoon on crack, but 22h onlne time each day to spam oneliners into discussions like an out of control machine gun.

Which then leads to horrible design decisions. As we can witness over the last years.

Uummm, okay…

If youre clearly talking about EVE player and Dev conversations, then yes, id agree with you on that.

As i mentioned, all info/feedback/solutions pertaining to this game should be on these forums.

Yea, sry if that wasn’t clear.

For in-corp or in-group coordination, yes, Discord is really nice. A bit too colorful and “childisch” with all those gimmicks and avatars and smileys… but hey, maybe someone somehow creates an alternative discord client or an “adult skin”…

Yeah I do remember seeing that being stated once or twice here and there on the forum (probably including this thread).  
I can’t imagine why it should be the case though. All such systems require some level of moderation, and in my own experience of groups with both Discords and forums, the Discord servers have generally been the more “lawless” of the pair. If that’s different for Eve it kinda implies that the staff more actively moderate the Discord than the forum??

well ccp devs/isd have full control over their discord and the moderation is pretty significant.. ask milint how he got banned from discord. but i generally do not see anyone trashing or calling them “can’t code properly” or trash devs or whatever dyver and others want to say.. i can’t blame FC for not engaging here..

I can cast blame, this is their “official forum”, they don’t own Discord. They don’t own X, Reddit, Facebook, either, but they own this forum. They don’t talk on here, there, or anywhere. That is their biggest problem.

They started this topic and opened a can of worms. I might be a bit bias, but it appears the new HUD isn’t very popular. People are suppose to be talking about what changes they would like to make to this new HUD. Well… that is kind of hard to do, when you don’t want them to change the HUD at all. **This is why all the negative feedback.**

Meanwhile, the ones in favor of this new HUD, show up to flame, berate, and scold the others on the opposite side of the spite fence. They are driving this thread off topic and not contributing much positive feedback in the process. In fact, this whole thread was silent 3 weeks ago. Now I see a burst of PvP activity having nothing what-so-ever to do with the topic at hand. I don’t see here where this is the “We should be discussing this on Discord” thread. We need to discuss it here at home.

Sure you can. Not being able or willing to keep order in their own house is a bad impression on their side. It’s totally up to them moderating here in a way that the devs aren’t trolled or bullied beyond a certain point.

Agreed.

I used to moderate a forum for a game-related company. We ditched it 5 years ago because forums were dying out and it was absurdly expensive. I now do the same task on Discord. Moderation works the same on both platforms. If someone is a dickhead you suspend/ban them, it’s not complicated.

I don’t see much here about recent changes or updates made to this new HUD. Does this mean it is 100% complete, on November 10th WYSIWYG?

I honestly cannot offer any comments on something we haven’t been kept update on the development. So my prior comments in this thread stand “as is” until the HUD is proven.

Want me to give it a try? If I can call them that here under examples of objectively poor coding quality, it should not be a sanctionable offense on the discord either. 😉 Case in point, I still keep finding new Photon issues and CCP all but abandoned improvement work on Photon months ago (as even years old issues remain unchanged) and other, newer players also keep finding the same issues, so cynical remarks like CCPCodingQuality (Can’t Code Properly was coined by players way before my time, so stop attributing stuff to me that is not mine, and it was never an issue for CCP to cope with) is more than justified. And related to this topic about the HUD: There is complete radio silence in the forums since they dumped this first design choice showcase into the world. Despite their repeated claims about showing more updates until release, nothing has come up at all. And now, all of a sudden, it’s going to be released for preview.

But from reading the past few messages about Discord, I get the impression that CCP is only after people accepting their ways and everything going contrary to what they want is toxic and sanctionable. That makes for a great community quality.

As for discord being used to gather, organize, categorize, keep track off and properly discuss feature development consistently and over long periods of time with bits and pieces of this debate being easily findable after some time, Discord is a horrible platform choice. Just one funny illustrative example: The Discord Search is a real clown. When I look for a very specific word, Discord shows me results for all kinds of synonyms for that word, even if I use standard limiters like “”. The forum does not do that.

Yeah even with heavily moderated threading, Discord doesn’t preserve long-term feedback well. Unfortunately, these “new forums” were stuck on Discourse (I think), which is famous for being loved by admin because you get lots of buttons, but generally disliked by users because it’s cluttered and difficult to navigate.

Maybe CSM could find a better way of organizing feedback since they’re allegedly involved in the process of ensuring player ideas are presented to and assessed by Fenris.

No such thing, all quality judgements are subjective.

This sums up the sentiment of actual users of these forums very well. Not to mention all the features that it constantly alerts you about that you can suddenly use with new badges but which are actually not available.

We have a special forum for this [Upcoming Features & Changes - EVE Online Forums](https://forums.eveonline.com/c/technology-research/upcoming-features-changes/73). CCP introduced it years ago for gathering feedback around new developments. Guess what they abandoned just months later and have not touched since?

Quality can be objectively evaluated. If I post screenshots of issues, this is objectively poor quality.

Personally…we could use tags/tabs…colors…etc.

To sort information out.

But yes…Discord really isn’t good for player community. Never mind the fact someone could deliberately crash and then report that entire discord and lock out the users discords. [I have seen this happen before for other Discords]

EVE Online Forums does need some love and re-organization for sure. So the player base can communicate ideas and concepts.

My single biggest complaint with the new HUD proposal is the lack of tick marks on the damage bars. I think simply adding the tick marks back would massively improve readability.

I don’t know why the developers hate their veteran player base so much. Nobody asked for these changes, and nobody wanted these changes.

The new HUD is ugly and looks like a mobile game. The proportional bars are awful and represent a fundamental change to the way the game is processed by players, the overheating is confusing and the mini-map is useless.

Ultimately you just make it harder for returning players to pick back up and feel engaged, just another reason to not bother. I’ll adopt when it’s forced upon me.
