Stank Bero The Fated E.Y 0	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:24:00 - [1] - Quote This is in reference to the recent update on 5/13/14. This update added hovering popup tooltips to everything. Everything. I might be alone here but I know what the symbols on the overview represent. Anyone playing the game more than a month does. Contains loot items - Great, thanks.. Can this be disabled? I have looked for an option to do it however I can't seem to find it. I have quite possibly overlooked it. If this can't be disabled, make it so it can please.
Colman Dietmar Red Federation RvB - RED Federation 24	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:30:00 - [2] - Quote The new tooltips certainly need more work. The content, as mentioned, is rather useless at times, but what is even worse is the delay: now I can't hover my mouse over brackets to get instant info on what exactly the object is. Perhaps roll back to the old ones untill the new ones are properly polished?
Longdrinks The Greater Goon Clockwork Pineapple 35	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:33:00 - [3] - Quote new shinys for new players is good, but when the majority of players are old hands please give us a way to disable things we dont need(everything but module tooltips for me)
Stank Bero The Fated E.Y 1	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:40:00 - [4] - Quote I can't even click to target ships on the screen that are close together.. Want to know why? Because some giant hovering popup blocks anything within a 2x0.5 inch radius around it. Targeting is broken, everything has a delay because of the animation. This is bad.
Kaarous Aldurald ROC Deep Space The ROC 6030	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:41:00 - [5] - Quote Yes, please, it's hideous and game breaking. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws." Psychotic Monk for CSM9.
Solecist Project Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 1038	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:43:00 - [6] - Quote I noticed this in space! That's .. ridiculous! I haven't seen every case yet, but why does it try to add information when this information is already presented? Why the redundancy? Why are people being treated as if they were idiots? Wtf is this crap ?? I'm not happy. :( I feel insulted. ): https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4492860 Killmails for Wrecks!! Ganker tears, best tears! Red blood, boiling hot!

Tooltips that give redundant information are pointless. Yes, maybe a new player does not know the first time that a wreck with a filled triangle contains loot ... but why does he need to be reminded every single time ? It's pointless and removes any initiative to remember things. This is bad change, CCP! Wtf is wrong with the guy who did this? It's a brainless approach to things! Undo it! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4492860 Killmails for Wrecks!! Ganker tears, best tears! Red blood, boiling hot!
Kaarous Aldurald ROC Deep Space The ROC 6034	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:48:00 - [8] - Quote Oh, and since we're on the subject, give us an option to disable the thrice goddammed action wheel.

Droidyk Maniacal Miners INC No Safe Haven 59	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:53:00 - [9] - Quote Don't change anything on them, they work perfectly, just add the option to disable for other people who don't like.
handige harrie Hedion University Amarr Empire 248	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:56:00 - [10] - Quote They're indeed annoying as heck, on the overview stuff has Icons to identify what it is. I know the square is a Station, no reason to tell me twice. Baddest poster ever
BNI Dojo The Brave Dojo Brave Collective 0	Posted - 2014.05.13 12:57:00 - [11] - Quote Dear God give us the option to turn this crap off, in BNI I am pretty sure 99% of everyone is not impressed. I do not need a helpful tool tip telling me a "planet" is a "planet" in overview, redundancy rarely achieves much beyond royally pissing everyone off.
Cpt Swagg Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 63	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:00:00 - [12] - Quote Another great step from ccp towards the evolution of eve. Not. If only CCP stopped touching their keyboards, and just stop screwing up our game.

No. Learn to adapt, learn to play, HTFU. I actually do agree with you though. Just showing you what it's like when you make a perfectly reasonable post and someone replies with non-sense like that. Food for thought as you reply to other threads.
Setanta Yeva Imperial Shipment Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:02:00 - [14] - Quote Try grabbing GÇ£scatter containersGÇ¥ in an exploration site, they are already bad enough with out this getting in your way, it is a real pain! I agree with the above, we need a disable option!

Not at all saying that's what you do though, nope... Please try to keep things within their specific thread, first of all. Secondly discussing design philosophy is an entirely different boat from UI changes. Collating the two literally could not be more of a category error.

Luna McCoy Royal Amarr Institute Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:04:00 - [16] - Quote There's an excellent system of brackets and colours that gives a wealth of information about various entities that might be encountered. There is thus no purpose in a massive box blocking my screen to tell me "This pilot is in your fleet" when I could see that without having to put my mouse anywhere near it. If you need "Mail" to have an explanation that "This is to send and receive mail" you shouldn't be playing Eve. Whilst I appreciate that someone put a lot of work into the UI, I feel that much of that effort has been wasted on giving us things which add little and in many cases detract from things that work well.

Yeah ** that action wheel, and ** tool tips Seriously, these terribad ideas could only be the work of those infectious EA tards.please CCP, get rid of them!
Faenir Antollare University of Caille Gallente Federation 271	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:26:00 - [18] - Quote If that is what every six weeks or thereabouts holds in store for us then I despair.. Please turn it off!
Wendy Riker Royal Amarr Institute Amarr Empire 2	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:34:00 - [19] - Quote The tooltips have also had the font size increased, which not only makes them take up too much space, but makes them more difficult to read, as the height of the letters is now too great in relation to the width.
Kaarous Aldurald ROC Deep Space The ROC 6046	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:39:00 - [20] - Quote Because I am a fair man, I have been trying to give this a second chance, etc, etc, for the last two hours or so. And now I will not be logging in until this "feature" is removed. Yes, it's really that bad. While I recognize that someone somewhere probably worked hard on this, it is simply awful, and it needs to be disabled for the time being, ultimately made to be 100% optional.

Sibyyl Gallente Federation 854	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:42:00 - [21] - Quote Now I feel bad suggesting tooltips for NPE. Yes it does seem a bit disruptive.. Take solace knowing that even after the sun sets, and your sky is filled with darkness, that the sun is still shining. -D. Entervention Psychotic Monk joins BNI

I agree with the above, we need a disable option! No, this needs to go. It removes incentive to remember things. A disable option will still have it on by default for newbies. I haven't checked through everything yet, can again in a few hours, but the outlook is horrible. It makes people dumber! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4492860 Killmails for Wrecks!! Ganker tears, best tears! Red blood, boiling hot!
TigerXtrm Black Thorne Corporation Black Thorne Alliance 681	Posted - 2014.05.13 13:43:00 - [23] - Quote The tooltips are great additions that will help new players find their way better. But some of them are annoying once you see them for the tenth time. The tooltips on the overview and in space get especially annoying. It would be nice if we get options to disable certain tooltips, like the ones mentioned above. If not that, at least have the tooltips update things like range in realtime.

Fine for new players but by now I know what a stargate is I do not need to be told that again, and again, and again! It's also immersion breaking, I'm not flying in space I'm flying in the middle of a god forsaken sea of tooltips! Please, please, please give us an off option.
