Seriously,

If anyone knows how to get rid of these tooltips then I would be grateful to hear from you.

Where is the option to disable them? It might just about be useful if I am being tracking disrupted so I can see the effect on my falloff or tracking (oh wait, it doesn't even show something useful like tracking) but CCP can't actually expect people to want this on all the time? lol Oops

They should let someone that actually PVP's give feedback on these UI 'improvements.

Option has not been implemented yet dawg, calm your ****. Apparently they are only going to make it like a 2 second delay

i like the new tooltips, but i agree they are too big.

smaller font or less space between lines, much more preferable to the old tooltips.

Thanks for the info guys.

Apologies for being one of those people and making redundant threads. I am a bad.

Delay would be the worst option - denying noobs that need it the information until they're dead anyway whilst still cluttering up the interface for people who don't need it (like hovering over a module to get the perfect timing).

Just add an option to turn it off - why does that seem to hard for CCP? Just hide it under advanced options or something...

not sure why they can't just give the UI to the players and let us do what we want. they've shown repeatedly that every change they make is going to upset one segment of the populace.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Everything is working fine and the logs show nothing.

The tooltips are fine I suppose, but most useful for guns with range/DPS/etc. stuff. I know my microwarpdrive is a microwarpdrive, thank you. Smile

A slider bar for delay would be better. Maybe .1 seconds to 1 second range or so.

Unsure, still having trouble finding out how big a comedy is.

Is it smaller than a drollery, or is it bigger than a melodrama?

What is it with these weird imperial American units these days...sheesh.

you might have a point but , while i am getting older my eyesight is slowly letting me down, even with glasses i sometimes have difficulties , so now that they are bigger is a bit of a blessing tho i agree there should be a option for making them smaller and/ or turn them off completely

I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire

There is already an option to magnify the hud via the menu, even though, apparently, options are bad.
