Recently the new CEO of MindArk told us in his letter that they will be working on overhauling 'legacy' systems and various user interfaces. Here's an excerpt from the letter:
"One of these focus areas will be system interaction, modernizing some of the legacy systems we have today, and upgrading others to conform to industry standards. These efforts will improve avatar interaction with the universe and feel much more engaging.
"Some of you may have noticed that we are inviting a group of participants to MindArk headquarters to help test and provide feedback for some of the upcoming improvements to the client camera system. These changes are something we believe will benefit newcomers and veterans alike.
"A similar overhaul will be performed for the various user interfaces, where the aim is to create a more visually appealing, unified and responsive experience."
There's no doubt that many of the 'legacy systems' and user interfaces in Entropia are in need of a major overhaul and I thought we should try and get some feedbacks on this from the community to find out what is most urgently needed. I'm guessing the best way to do this would be through a public poll so here we go:
Which 'Legacy' system and/or User Interface do you feel needs to be overhauled most urgently after the Camera system (please select the 1 you think is most urgent):
1. Carried Inventory, Planet Storage and Storage Containers
2. Chat & Message Center (including sticky notes)
3. Society management interfaces & Society Terminal
4. Land Area marker & Event List interfaces
5. Auction & Market History
6. In-game Map (& radar)
7. Skills & Professions interfaces
8. Hall of Fame
9. Deeds & Estate Terminals
10. Hotkey Mapping & Action Library
11. Pet interaction (including Info & Status)
12. Mission Log & NPC dialog interfaces
13. Beauty Profession interfaces
14. Coloring/Texturing interfaces
15. Mentoring/Discipleship interfaces
16. Contacts & Player Register
17. Team interfaces
18. PED Flow Center & Deposit Center
19. Manufacturing
20. Skill Insertion/Extraction interface
If I forgot something, please pick the one choice above which is the closest to what you think is most urgently in need of an overhaul, 20 is the maximum number of choices I am allowed in a poll.
EDIT:
If you vote for MA to just skip all the overhauls and concentrate on giving us new content then reply to this thread and say you vote for #21: None - Just give us New Content!
I'll tabulate your votes and report them here in this first post.
2nd EDIT:
So far, having just re-read all the comments in this thread, I count 3, possibly 4 votes for #21, so about 4% of votes.
