Version 21.02 - General Feedback


in this screenshot, you can see difference between in game colors next to stargate vs washed out colors in this new UI
but washed out colors in this new UI is a feature i guess as everything else wrong with this UI, but everything was mentioned here before, who cares “green” 0.7-0.8 high sec looks like “cyan” 0.9-1.0 high sec

its very inconsistent, colors in game are inconsistent, icon size are inconsistent etc. but as i said, everything was mentioned here before and nothing changed

the fact that these obvious problems with this UI are there… i dont even know what to say

Apart from various usability issues (less info, less space blabla) I am also having quite the severe eyestrain even after short sessions.
Don’t know what it is, but everything feels kinda blurry and after playing EVE i have trouble reading stuff elsewhere for a while.
The only other time I had this issue was after some bigger fonts change some 6-12 months ago in EVE, but that got much better after a couple of days iirc.

I don’t recall getting eyestrain anywhere else playing games, reading articles or whatever.

The UI guys just forgot that the gate sec level indicators even exist when they made Photon. But don’t worry: They will fix this soon and make the gate sec level indicators just as bad to read as they made the order highlights in the wallet and market when they unified them there. Typical #CCPQualityFeatures

To “reduce cognitive overload, streamline the UI and make it easier to use”, for sure.

Our logs indicate only 0.001% of players actually looked at the gate icons in space thus the feature has no reason to be spent development time on.

The docking animation can not be turned off thus everyone views them all the time, that is 100% instead. Besides they can write their own logs if needed anyway. :stuck_out_tongue: :psyccp:

Today i scanned down a wormhole in Low-sec. a N99 classification wich means it’s a Low to Low WH. it leads to Intaki wich sicne downtime is a 0.5 security system. so the WH ID’s are conflicting and i had to run my sweet butt back to the hole because im a baddy :smiley: .

Maybe you might want to tweak the WH’s aswell before peopel lose stuff due to false advertising actual security levels :smiley:

Mining for SP ? A cruel and unusual joke punishment !!

Well you can thank the gallentes for that security change

Just copy your client settings to the other clients. Check this post on how to do it:

Can you move a capital through that hole? N944 have the mass to do that. :thinking:


Yes

I likin’ the change up on the daily skill challenges.

I just noticed this: Halcyon Dawn skins cannot be traded. When you click the button, the market opens the group page for Genolution implants and other implants. Since it cannot be traded, it makes no sense to display a button that opens a confusing window. Same goes for the Abyssal Glory - Caldari skins (and related skins). The button opens the same completely unrelated page. Or does this behavior also count as “easier to use, reducing cognitive overload, more streamlined UI”?

Triggered by photon enough to comment about something that has much to do with photon UI as it does with the price of tea in england?

The Woseley charges 16.75 pounds ($20 USD) for Creame Tea, fruit scones, and homemade jam. But what does the price of tea in England have to do with this thread?

The UI was the biggest and apparently the most unpopular change made in Version 21.02. Maybe they will do something to fix these issues or create more in version 21.03 or 21.04? I am headed over to play another PvP game for now. Maybe the game will get better or worse, that is for the developers to decide. Almost everything we say here is pointless, we can bicker, rant, and rave. CCP is a silent mountain that refuses to move in any direction. Pay the mountain money, if you are being entertained by its cold isolated silence. If they listen to anyone here, I plan to go outside and tell the sky it is the wrong shade of blue. I think it would have the same affect.
