I understand why CCP has incentivized logging in daily with bonus SP now. Between the CCP and Unreal splash screens, PS Move (lol) screen, and login process takes several minutes to get in the merc quarters. Add several more minutes to find a squad, then more time to get in a match. I would love to see some data on how long it takes the average player to go from first splash screen to a match.
Is there any chance we can opt out of the PS Move screen?
Are there any plans in the works to speed up login speed?

That screen has been there for around almost 2 years and this isn't the first thread asking for its removal.
Closed beta anyone?

I'm going to venture a guess and say that the reply was something to the effect of "We'd love to do something like that."

2 minutes isn't what I am experiencing. Are you getting into the merc quarters in 2 minutes? Do you have a SSD or SSHD in your PS3?

Those screens are hiding load times and have to be there for business reasons, so its either that or making them skippable but still having load screens after like how it used to be

The PS Move screens just hide the login process. That's the reason they are there - to make you think Dust takes less time to load than it does.
Back in the day, those screens weren't there. According to CCP, at that time, it took 3 minutes to login. They improved that time somewhat, and also obfuscated it a bit by making the Move screens mandatory (you used to be able to skip past them).
Bottom line - removing the Move screens will not speed up the login process.

The PS Move Screen is there to cover up loading times.
Were you here for Chromosome? It took 5+ minutes just to get to the MQ. This is an improvement.

I remember it being longer than this yes, and while present day is an improvement, it isn't optimal.
Ideally we would see CCP's splash screen, sync with server, character selection, loading time and then we are in merc quarters. Hope CCP can find a way to make that happen.

Login used to take a whole cigarette and cashing the last bowl.
Now, it's barely enough time to pack a bowl and burn the green off of it.
The brightness of the Move screen has been known to wake people up in my house.

+1 OP.
Yes it used to take longer, but many games take less.
Are we sure CCP can't do better? Long time-to-game is extra annoying on fast-paced action game. Remember the whole goal is to get those FPS players in here and having fun as fast as possible.
I support SP rollover.

Pfffft. Of all the things to complain about, this is what you picked?
Let's get the actual gameplay optimized and running smoothly (30FPS always and no network lag would be nice), then we can whine about it taking too long to log in. |

- If we don't tell CCP we aren't satisfied with an aspect of Dust then they won't know to work on it.
- The issues you bring up could take considerable time to correct. The time-to-play from login to match could potentially be low hanging fruit.
- There are multiple teams working at CCP Shanghai. A team can be working on the issues you described while a whole different team works on the issue I described.
- I pay CCP money ($20 USD/month, sometimes more, sometimes less), if I want to complain about this issue instead of say, racial dropsuit parity, I can. Feel free to open your own threads for the issues you described.

I have an hdd, takes me a minute or two, not counting the fact I have to log out to fix my microphone which is rediculous.
It should be like eve with the theme music for that build and news slider at the bottom. The stars want to give me a seizure and it's a slow login screen tbh. |

2 1/2 minutes is a huge pain in the @ss, especially when getting booted while in a competitive match.
down with the 'MOVE' screen, and the damn logo screen!!!
We accepted EULA, Im missing my game...
o wait that situation only applies to about 12 people in this entire game
can us elitists score some DevHaX or something? super secret button combo to skip over the stuff we've seen 18,692 times?
puurrrrty please?

It is a bit of annoying wait, especially if you have a bunch of alts. Switching between my Heavy main, then my HAV alt. then maybe I feel like playing on my Mass Driver alt. and then I feel like doing a bit of sniping on my other alt then maybe a bit of laser tag with my Amarr loyalist alt and then screw around on my Melee alt and then maybe a bit of fun on my Nova Knife alt. and OH YEAH! I need to manage my second corporation on another alt. Switching between those accounts frequently, though, you get used to the wait. I usually have a twitch stream(speed running ftw) on while I play so I have something to look at between loading times. And please don't tell me I have too many alts. I already know.
I usually don't actually play on every alt each day, but I usually switch between a few depending on what I feel like playing and to transfer funds from my main to an alt, but oh wait I forgot to do it while I was signed in on my main so now I have to sign out and then back in to my main and transfer funds and then sign in back to the alt.
FIRE UP THE HEAVY MEAT GRINDER! WE'RE HAVIN' CLONE BURGERS TONIGHT, BOYS!
