surreal dome
Every time you level up, your entire ship is blocked from view by this blue bubble that you can't see through for several seconds. This is more readily apparent the smaller your ship is (low level players especially are in small ships, as are recon classes).
What direction are you facing? No one knows, you have a blue circle covering your ship.
It is time to think of something different, this is not a useful mechanic.

@gray mesa There is already floating text above your ship stating that you leveled up, the effect is an obstructive extra. I don't need the way I interface with my ship blocked by an effect every couple minutes (or during the 20th anniversary multiple times a second. I'm practically a blue ball flying around and no ship to be seen.)
crude ridge
Honestly such a nothing thing to bring up. It's not a mechanic it's a simple little light up effect that happens when you level. Almost trying to take out the joy of levelling 😦
unreal peak
Maybe we should make it shaped like a SS star instead of a ring
wet wedge
We might just be able to make it more transparent depending how it is done.

Even just a ring instead of the whole bubble would be fine. Heck throw in some fireworks for a sec, but don't block the whole ship from being viewed

I’m discussing with the art team
eternal cradle
Fireworks legit
clear bane
it would be simple to replace the effect texture with something else as a fix
unreal peak
if we're going to do it, we'll do it right. like how we fixed the static effect near suns
I have an art dev looking into it
clear bane
I meant as a personal fix until something official is done
tiny crater
Yeah the file is easily deleted or made transperent
