Constant state of Warp...?

Hi all,

Im pretty casual as a player but love the game. I've been out of the loop since a bit after the first wave of power play updates first rolled out. 2 nights ago I logged in and noticed that there is an effect while using frame shift in local space that makes it appear as stars and other astronomical bodies "warp speed effect" are flying by you, even if flying from planet to planet in a system. Does anyone else feel like that took away from the realistic feel of navigating through the stars?
..Honestly, getting into the game, the most realistic feeling was not just the physics, but knowing that in a solar system, you were not flying past other stars or planets to the planets in system, so there was no "warp speed" effect which is currently an overkill. (in my opinion)

Anyone agree? disagree? care???

I am about realistic simulation and will pickup all expansions, but this is a realism buzz kill. Anyone with me in rallying for it to go back to the way it was in prior patch releases??

Click to expand...

What do you mean by stars and astronomical bodies flying past you? I have never seen that ingame except for the actual stars and planets. If you mean the HUD flight path vector display (or simulated space dust), that has been in game since the start. They look nothing like stars or planets, those streaks are tiny

Tivbs may be right with the neutron field effect.. but I think that it is exaggerated to the point where is now feels fake... it just feels like there is too much of it. Where there was the effect previously, there are now dozens more "streaks" viewable.. more distracting than realistic i think..
