Post Speeding up things. Heres data.
Ok first of, I no longer have access to Bastamental on the forums for reasons I am unable to discuss.


The suggestion summary: Speeding up everyone speed by comparing which is the most default zoom setting and increasing the % to match such speeds in respect to the standard expected C1 speed.

Heres what I mean:

What zoom do you play with? In sequence of 1-4

100% zoom [Yea Right..]
Image
75%
Image
50%
Image
0Zoom
Image

You chose which zoom you use.

Now, with that data in hand. We can calculate how much faster C2 needs to get beefed so that it LOOKS the same speed as SS1 from the most requested zoom option.

I zoom in and out as I need to, i.e. full out for DG fighing, zoom in for loot scooping.

I use max in zoom when stationary or ap, cos i'm damn sexy to look at.

Zoomed out 90% of the time, zoomed in when I want to see someone's ship.

Post Re: Speeding up things. Heres data.
I play(sit in sol) with it being one zoom setting in from 0zoom.

side note: play with either complete top-down view, or one click from completely top-down since it is more difficult to judge distance and such while looking sideways

haven't played enough to tell the speeds

I haven't seen a change in speeds, or if, then it feels faster now.

If by speed, how fast you move. Speed is basically pixels per second. No matter what zoom level you have it at it'll be the same. It might feel different because when zoomed out there's a lot more space to see but it's still the same.

This is exactly what I want to fix. I would like the pixels or whatever to be in sync with the most default setting.

That would be default -1(zoomed out once).

What you're suggesting involves slowing down and speeding up one relative to other players which is impossible

The way speed is shown in the game is fine at the moment, if you want to feel really speedy get into an ASS and zoom to 100% and fly around a bit, its what I do! :mrgreen:

All you have to do to make it seem faster is make the background move a tad more.

While I do agree collecting this data is of use, you're a moron.
Reason?
You can't make a fucking unbiased survey, can you? You're saying "Yeah right" "Just right" etc.
MORON.

You do realize this makes absolutely no sence?

1 the way the UI is setup now, makes it so you can zoom out or in anyway you like it.

2 what the fuck do you mean by speed.

3 why limit what people can do? I found that the more options I have as a player the better gaming expirence I have.

People might actually start looking at you differently if you know what the fuck your talking about!
Be more clear with your writing and don't use arbitrary words like speed to define something which clearly is only apparent to you!
