EVE Online: NeoCom Improvements

CCP Optimal has posted a new dev blog on the official EVE Online site that gives readers a blast from the past and a look to the future with specific regard to the NeoCom. The team, he says, wants to make NeoCom customizable and utilitarian for players. Devs seem to have come up with an elegant solution.
Customizability
The customization of the old NeoCom was very limited to say the least, but no more. You‘ll now be able to decide exactly what buttons are displayed in the NeoCom and reorganizing the buttons is as easy as dragging them around. Removing a button from the NeoCom is a right-click affair and re-claiming that same button is as easy as dragging it from the EVE menu into the NeoCom bar. It is even possible to create groups into which buttons, and other groups, can be dragged.

This is not a game.

Is there anything wrong with that?
This is not a game.
seems pretty worthless. making it align to the bottom and adding an "app" launcher is merly a redesign.
make it customizeable (xml and und graphics) and let the users do the work ^^
Did you even read the devblog or just stare at the picture?
Seriously do some reading.
This is not a game.
Nope. Just pointing out where they got the idea from. It's a very old (in computer terms) concept, it's amazing it took them this long.

Funny guy you are, wanting people to read first before going on a bitching spree.
Funny guy here!
I honestly do not see how it would improve my game play either...
Yea.... I guess I have been reading the forums too much and my memory got butched, I remembered someone mention the same thing you said but I remembered it as it being said by a dev. Sorry about that.
This is not a game.
good thing u answered cause i was just going to read it aggain ^^
The only way I can see this improving gameplay is if the UI is much more responsive and less 'loading'
Personally, I preferred it on the side, since I use a WS monitor. At the bottom will just cut my top-to-bottom screen space.
I think, make it moveable, that'll be a little more win.

Actually, I did not even think they would make it not possible to align vertically. They cannot be that stupid...
It's a start. But then again LoTRO didn't start using LUA customization until it went F2P. So EVE isn't the only game "behind the curve" in UI design.
Making all elements moveable (ie Warhammer Online UI) would be awesome!
Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising everytime we fall.
