Unneeded change that only makes stupid people safer, but if you won't revert these changes at least give us the option to get rid of that damn message. |

2 seconds - ARGHHHHH
popup center message - ARGHHHHHH
undefined nature of change to scan radius, is it a rescan ... ARGGGGHHHH
Did anyone with ANY pvp experience try these changes before rolling them out? |

Supported. At the very least please remove the annoying "Please wait, sensors are recalibrating" message that constantly pops up as I'm scanning, or allow me to move where the message pops up. My interface is cluttered enough as it is.  |

Having spent some time with this feature rather than just doing a knee-jerk reaction to change I have to add my voice to the throng and say this was a terrible idea. It may go some way towards cutting down lag at times but at too great a cost to gameplay/enjoyment - surely there must be a better way to reduce lag. |

Edited by: Yaay on 08/09/2009 19:09:22 I understand the reasoning behind the change, but the worst part about it is, with the lagged text, you can't even figure out if you've actually scanned something or not until about 5-10 seconds after the first scan.
Horrible mechanic implemented. |

yo the CSM asked ccp about this for you guys and they replied that the directional scanner puts a huge load on the server and spamclicking it was creating lag. You'll have to start using long range probes instead of an inty |

Well, they could at least try a shorter delay, 2 seconds is way too much. Getting rid of the annoying message would help too. Maybe make the scan button un-clickable during delay.
And while they're at it, fix the forum so you don't get logged out when trying to post... |

Well in that case, would you mind telling these fine gentlemen I rather want my lag back? And while you're at it, ask if the graphs about average cpu used per player from their anti-macro campaign where completely bogus then, please. |

Now that this has been implemented I have seen a huge decrease in server lag.
Actually, not at all. The minute server load contributed by directional scan usage has not effected in the slightest anyone's gameplay. At the moment, the incredibly terrible 2 second delay, coupled with the central pop up message, and the fact that changing the angle of the scan counts as a rescan, all come together to form a big heap of steaming fail.
Was this actually tested? Did not a single developer understand the faults of this change?
I find that hard to believe. Instead I will fall back on my personal motto, blatantly stolen from Penny Arcade:
"We are being digested by an amoral universe"
Well done CCP, you have somehow managed to screw the pooch once again.
