Also, to whom ever said it how ever many posts ago: MY ships are not submarines. |

I remember about a year ago, that when looking at the back of my ship (where the engines were) from close up, my FPS would drop from the 90's to the mid teens. That changed in the expansion before Apoc, so yeah, my guess would be that it was a resource hog. |

I need them back in some shape or form. They don't need to be eyecandy fps hogs. They were extremely useful in telling you which direction you and your targets were going, which in turn made it far easier to keep transversal up against multiple opponents. |

Just make it an option that can be disabled. There everyone that doesn't want to see them don't see them, and those that want do.
There everyone happy. |

Yes, I too would like to have engine trails back.
Know why I liked flying my Jaguar? The engine trails. Know why I liked flying my Deimos? The engine trails. Know why I liked chocolate with my peanut butter? The engine trails. How about the blonde with the redhead? Yes, the engine trails. The redhead with peanut butter and the blonde with chocolate? Totally engine trails...
So, pretty please with sugar on top. Think of all the blondes and redheads... |

ADD BACK THE TRAILS!, Make them optinal for those that have PC's that can handle them, i mean their a client side feature it should have 0 effect on the server.
that and the fact i kinda wish we saw the shield impacts when we get hit (sorry STO beta has me a little graphically envious) |

Yes, just engine trails, as the whole expansion.
Make it a proposal for CSM and I will gladly push for it  |

The redundant league of redundancy approves of your laziness... How about you just copy the OP into the CSM board and push it yourself. If you walked by and saw some muppet invent a iron to gold converter would you refuse to acknowledge it unless he sent in a patent? This beauracratic nonsense is the reason people stopped giving a damn about CSM and you only had a pitiful 10% attendance on the last "election". |

I don't want to claim credit for other people's ideas. It would be nice if everyone got used to posting their own ideas, properly formulated, in the assembly hall and waiting to see if there was enough support rather than contacting all of us personally everytime they have a brain fart. |

That requires some effort so it's not gonna happen. You might get a few loyal, repeat visitors in there, but most of the eve talk happens in the mainstream channels like the general board so that's where all the brainfarting will happen. If you refuse to take suggestions from there then the csm is flawed on a basic level. |

I remember that you could place dual mwd or dual ab on your ship and have huge flames coming out the back. Once there were also nice explosions with pieces flying away tumbling.
I gues it all had to go to make room for more and larger fleet battles. |

If anything these trails should linger like plane vapors in the sky so that pilots coming in later can see what direction someone headed off in. |

It would be nice to get trails back in the game. But I would prefer to have my gun animations back. Those little puffs of smoke on Projectiles are laughable. Rails are not much better, the only ones to survive are energy turrets (how much does CCP love Amarr  ) I know this was probably all done for the sake of performance but some investment in hardware would be nice. What happens if the game grows its pop by another 10% - are we going to be playing text based eve?? |

Here's another piece of evidence that we are in fact not in space. The light from lightning is caused by superheated air, as there is no air in space and we do in fact see lightning in EVE, EVE is not in space  |

This "idea" does not belong to any one single person, it has been mentioned/proposed numerous times by different people (including myself) in several section of the forums. So you don't have to worry about taking undue credit. I'll gladly sign your thread in the appropriate section of the forums. |

Great idea! ----^ Then I could play eve from my Netbook. Maybe an iPhone app to browse 'contracts' and the regional markets to buy and sell while ridding the subway. Id buy it. Adding the trails as an 'option' that can only be generated by the players PC perhaps? |

Of course not but I want to stimulate initiative when it comes to stuff like this and not always have to depend on myself or other csm members to bring it up. It's good to get people involved and discuss about stuff. Originally by: Navtiqes

Err..why do you think I visit the other parts of the forum and urge people with good ideas to post and discuss them in the assembly hall? Originally by: Lord Helghast CSM Proposal I did: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1254115

Originally by: Imran Fix the **** lag in fleet battles first please.
New graphics/walking in stations/COD4+EVE later please.
No. Walking in stations plus more shiny THEN fleet battle lag. Most of us can't dedicate our entire life to a MMO (which is basically required for large fleet battle type engagements). Casual players have you outnumbered me thinks. :] Flame away! |
