Edited by: CEOcat on 22/06/2011 16:45:22 Please fire whoever made the new icons they are just terrible blobs of colour that barley can be told apart from eachother.
Turrets fortunally have ammo in them but there is still the active indicator on the target box that is ruined. In my Noctis it just looks like I have a bunch of random garbage in my F1-F8 icons....
Why did you have to go replace nice clear easily identifiable icons with this? I haven't come to expect much from you but those new icons just looks like you took some random icon from a poorly designed 16 bit game...

Have to agree.
The new turrets are too detailed to be represented as scaled down thumbnail images on the fitting screen and as buttons. My Vargur's 800 ACs and Salvagers look like they're made of mud bricks.
The original thumbnails/buttons were clear and easy to "read." Please bring them back.

I agree, when multiple high slots are active it's difficult to see what is used on what. You can tell them apart, but it's more difficult and takes more time (Yay for dark icons with space as it's background, am I supposed to stare at the sun so I can quickly figure out what turret is on which target?)... time that could get you killed.

F1-F4 tractors and F5-F8 salvagers.
Lock 8 wrecks, pull 4 with tractors. 4 wrecks at salvage range, disable tractors, enable salvagers on them, tractors on the other 4. The first 4 get salvaged, lock the third set while the second set gets into salvage range/salvaged.
Rinse and repeat.
Noctis pilots don't even look at their slots, if they ever do, is to see if a salvager did its job or is stuck on a second cycle. ____________

Edited by: CEOcat on 22/06/2011 17:15:12 Edited by: CEOcat on 22/06/2011 17:14:00 Also apparently I have a 24km salvaging range on my Noctis now ... thanks I guess but where was this in the patch notes?
I may have been a bit harsh cause this was the straw in things that are bad about this expansion for me. I think you should start firing a lot of people. It feels like a lot of stuff is being changed just for the purpose of changing (rather then improving) which usually indicates there are too many useless ppl in a company trying to look useful...
Anyway you have to make those icons look less the actual model and more clear and easily recognizable...
Salvagers and tractors are actually some of the easier to tell apart. Those black specks against the black space that look like a bat or something representing my gun being active on a target. Common, I seriously thought that was a graphic bug due to my low settings until I ran out of ammo and saw the changed icon...

I agree. The new icons are just terrible. Way to detailed with shadows and textures you canŠt really see them. Old icons were much better and clear/lighter.
Icons are not supposed to be super datailed, but a representation of something and the brain fills the gaps. Check iconarchive.com for icons and see what I mean.
Also, the icon next to the target seem at a wrong resolution. They look like expanded from 16 bit game era.

wow I thought it was just me, they are truly wretched and I wanted to take my salvagers off.
Even worse than the buttons are the locked targets with weapon icons next to them, it's like a smudge on the screen.

This whole expansion is nothing but fail.
