I don’t know who at CCP to at about this, but I remember reading a long time ago in a security dev blog that most accounts get hacked through a compromised email account. So, I intentionally put my accounts on different emails in order to not put all my eggs in one basket. Now, CCP is telling me to put all my accounts on one email? Why? Is this wise from a security perspective? And what do they get out of it? Why are they pushing players to put all accounts under one email address? And why can’t I get these unspecified multi-account benefits without throwing risk management out the window?
Also, I don’t know what they had in mind for multiaccount benefits, but as multiboxing scum, this is what I want:
- The ability to share custom keybinds
- The ability to share client settings (i.e. zoom direction, dynamic movement, graphics settings, duel requests, etcetera)
- The ability to save custom graphics presets
- The ability to save, share, and switch between hud layouts
- The ability to use different overviews on different toons on the same account
- Change it so that when I move the position of locked targets on one toon, it doesn’t move it for all toons on the account
- The ability to change profiles without having to relog
- A UI that isn’t a pain to use when running at 720p (i.e. the bottom of the floating skill window is below client window, so I can’t grab an edge in order to resize it, unremovable NES button on my Neocom, Skill Progress circle that takes up more room than the bar did, poorly layed out windows that display less information than they could, the ability to move ALL hud elements wherever I want, including the system info stuff in the top right corner)
- More keyboard shortcuts (i.e. drone assist, loot wreck)
- I imagine that many would be opposed to this one, but how about more audio alarms and cues (i.e. alarm when module is about to burn out, or a noise when a bastion mod is about to cycle [similar to how boosts make a subtle noise before they cycle])
- I consider this one a low priority because there are workarounds, but how about the ability to easily place borderless window clients where I want without having to use a third party program.
- The ability to split items in the redeem queue, or chose how many to redeem at a time (i.e. if I buy multiple MPTC’s, they all go into one stack, and Master of Arms Cerebra Accelerators go into stacks of 4.)
I haven’t asked for much in the way of multiboxer/multi-account stuff because I figured CCP had bigger fish to fry. But if you’re going to try to cater to people like me, maybe try giving us some of the things we’ve actually been asking for.
- Speaking of which, I’ve heard industrialists ask for easier ways to share items between their accounts because some of them don’t keep all their toons in the same corp. Thus, they can’t use corp hangars to do it. So, I’d imagine they’d want something like an account wide hangar, or, probably even better, the ability to grant access to hangars with access list.
- I’ve also heard people ask for the ability to pause training on other toons without logging in (i.e. when you go to start training on one toon and you don’t have MCT going, it will ask you if you want to pause training on the other toon, instead of making you log into the other toon and do it manually)
By the way, can anyone tell me who at CCP I should at with this sort of feedback?
