Version 23.02 - Catalyst - General Feedback

Same here. I’m not gonna play this game until this problem is resolved. Not gonna memorize theme color codes to be able to reset these options every time I get on!

This is not some complicated thing to figure out how to do right. The option for personal client themes is there, so figure it out how to save these damn themes and restore the ones we already had saved for years! F*ck’s sake, you guys can mess up the simplest things in this game.

Why does my ML-3 Scoped Survey Scanner refuse to work? When you click on it to scan It says its a passive module?

Bring back the original ore names … do CCP even realise how much documentation they have just screwed? EVE University wiki pages? Game guides?

Because it is passive. If you want to see what it does, equip it on an ORE ship and click the button between your capacitor and your modules. Equip and un-equip and push that button so you can see the differences.

Thank you.

I totally agree with you. This spoils the immersion into an otherwise mundane game of math and statistics. There is a whole thread in general about it started here, CCP sucks… by @Gerard_Amatin

It took me FOREVER to find the new scanner on my ships. Because I entered the game on a non-fitted frigate ship. The new rock scanner’s icons only appear on the podunk corvettes and legit licensed mining vessels. I know players will say “You are suppose to mine in a mining vessel stupid!”. Well then, if that is true CCP developers ( by this move you did ), then make it impossible to fit mining harvesters to these ‘non mining vessels’ too! I sometimes use warships to mine but there is no way to see the icon. Either it is one for all, or all for none?

I think you just need to reset the camera settings? Try mine → Settings → Camera → All tick boxes off except Invert Zoom. Welcome back.

I have only played this game casually and those clicks and whistles do grates on the nerves. When I first started playing, I looked for a sound lexicon to understand them. Apparently they have no meaning, so I muted the whole game after the first few months. :+1:

As for these “improvements” people, get use to them. I know from experience, these game companies seldom revert changes. The new kids will eat the cookies in their cookie cutter MMO space opera, and some veteran players will drop out. It is always a lose - lose position. Slowly over time all unique features in these online game become more dull and grey, until they blur together with everything else. As the wise King Solomon stated, There is nothing new under the sun. There is a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh…

or maybe it was The Byrds? :laughing:

Have fun!

Very disappointing to see the new ore names.

@CCP_Bee Please, don’t waste my time, and make the Mining Survey Results window open automatically upon clicking the Mining Surveyor.

Thanks,

Nice (and awful) finding, I use that rearrangement with daily basis. :sweat_smile:

1- Clicking a “targeted” rock on the Mining Survey Results window does not automatically select the targeted rock on the screen, as it used to do before this poorly thought out UI rework. So if I try to apply the mining laser on a rock from the Mining Survey Results window, it only apply the laser to the first rock in the targeted listed rock

2- Completely mining a rock does not make it disappear from the Mining Survey Results window, as it used to do before, again, this poorly thought out UI rework.

Another thing that is now different when it comes to themes is that the background tint is now only applied to the selected window in the client. If I have multiple windows open, e.g. market, character sheet, and wallet, for example – then only the one I have actively selected (clicked on) gets background tint applied to it. All the other windows revert to default black.

This was NOT how it was before this new patch.

Here’s my feedback:
Wtf were you thinking when you made the Odysseus cost 2 time a Nestor in LP?

Well that seemed to work. Thank you. I was getting dangerously close to painting the kitchen.

Control key based targeting is also borked and only works when it decides to.

On the new map…

(i love it if redesigned things have the same bugs)

The map zooms in if i jump a gate.
I use the map in a small window and zoom it out till the text is not shown.
If i jump a gate it zooms back in.

And my UI color and window transparency setting always sets itself back after logging in.

i like this as much as the fixed capital hangar camera…
And then things like this:

Why did you remove the remaining m³ of ore? Previously, scanning an ore anomaly showed the remaining m³. Add this. The remaining ore quantity isn’t that important. The thing is, Strip Miner and mining lasers dig a specific number of m³. But different ores have different quantities of ore in m³. Therefore, when digging, you should focus on the remaining m³, not the quantity.

they moved that function into the mining chipset midslot module that replaced the old survey scanner modules and work as augments to the new scanner @Ainur_Module

How to find out the remaining m³?

Since I cannot load into the customer support server I am posting this here/

I have completed the first two parts of the fractured legacy epic arc. The mission board shows them completed. I requested the third and final mission “Shattered Legacy”. I received the instructions, set destination, warped to system and clicked warp to site. It takes me to the 1st mission location with the gate and agent communication instructs me to enter the mining area posing as miner. I still have the shattered catalyst as the opportunity and it still has the warp to site available. If you select warp to site again it doesn’t let you as external factors are preventing you to warp. Warped to a station, logged out the character and tried again with same result. I existed the game completely and tried again still same result.

I have completed this arc twice on other Omega accounts today. This is the only one that bricked
