That's because the launch is staged. I'm told that anything up to an hour is considered normal while some will see it right away. My CCP ip is picking it up right away and I'm gonna go ship spin 'til I throw up now Did the forums get updated today or is that tomorrow? |

Also, your News items (specifically the one for the new site) no longer includes those helpful links to the associated feedback threads. The usefulness of the site has been seriously degraded for regular users (though newbies might like all the flash). Everything is essentially hidden behind 3 or 4 clicks of site navigation unless you go straight to the forums. Eve websites upper right links you to all the sites you are use to. |

I agree with this statement. I think you need a statement somewhere on the top or bottom that says something like : "EVE Professions are for demonstration only. The freedom of your actions in the sandbox determines your profession, not the other way around."
Also, on the "EVE Universe" page, you mention Pirates, and other careers - interlinking them to the professions pages would help people understand the concepts together. The new eve player intro video does alot of what you want the pages to do. |

I am logged in, I go to the CSM ---> submission page (https://community.eveonline.com/council/voting/submissionform.asp) and it tells me I do not meet the criteria for voting (no intro accounts, no accounts registered in the last 4 hours, yada yada yada). Now I know I am not a dinosaur here but I've had this character for 8 months. There may be a problem here.
Max. Its not midnight yet. There is a theread up for just questions like that linked off the new devblog. |

I agree. But I never got that far before I made the response. It required me to actually click on "Try EVE for Free" - which you can at some point say "Well, you commented before you explored everything!!" Well, as a designer, I can tell you most clients don't give you the luxury of making that excuse when you try to sell them your product. So, whenever I look at sites like this, I'm looking at it with fresh eyes with no other excuses, and I agreed that the profession page makes it seem like there's a dozen "boxes" you can be put into, not a box you can step out from to play EVE. They need a link to the "what can i do in eve poster" Looks like its easy to add more professions though. |

All of the customer resources on one page that customers use the most - forums. It's easy to organize and there's plenty of room for it. And there's been plenty of time to do it. There's a button on the top right to get to all of EVEs webpages easily. The forum is the first button. I think CCP didn't do this by mistake. If you want community resources, go to the community site. I think you're just not reading what I posted. I'll break it down by points: The page that is most used by EVE community is the forums. That is why this page should have all of the community/customer links within easy reach. Easy in this case is one click, or a drop-down/unfold menu item at worst. Instead, to get to those customer resources we have to navigate to a different site and look for a different style menu at a different location on the new web page, and then still having to perform several clicks before we get to our intended destination. I do not need to be a web designer to understand that this is tedious and cumbersome. In fact it's plainly obvious that that qualification isn't guaranteed to help. As the forums are getting a update to support the corp forums I expect alot of the fuctionality you are asking for will be added before the end of the week. They have 3 days before the first CSM candidate has to have his page up on the forums plenty of time.
It did not make sense to add the tabs without the main sites up. |

Elbert Ainstein wrote:From being a functional site for the players, it has now become a 99% advertising site for the game Sorry, but I can not use the new site for anything Then use the communtiy site that was also released or Evegate. All my bookmarks still work I never went to eve main any way. Twitter has any news posts before they get there any way and any devblogs have a dev forum post as they go live so all is good in my book. |

Brinhan wrote:Honestly, not a fan... I thought the old website was functional. I feel like the new page is nothing but an advertisement for the game and complicates access for members who are already paying for the game. I cannot find a link to EVE insider at all...and I find myself going to Google to search "EVE online API Key" just to get to the page to manage my keys. I didn't have a problem with there being a front end with links to FUN, NEW, and EXCITING things but I very much appreciated the old style with a button that said continue to EVE Online where there existed a professional looking website. To me it feels like I bought a car but can't get the giant neon dealer price tag off the windshield so I can actually drive the car.
Then again, I am one of those people who hates how Facebook keeps changing their interface every 5 minutes, so CCP may just be catching some of my wrath from that... Twitter just changed again to . The drop down upper right once tweeked a little more with up dates to all pages to match the new standared will bring the fuctinality back to what we are use to. |
