They made a mistake, the tooltips are too small. I can still see other things on my screen.

Seriously though... A way to turn them off would be nice.

Thanks to all crybabies because I never had realized the changes. Must be my tunnel vision after 8 years of routine. Tissues? Anyone? No worries. CCP will hear you. That's a tradition.

Ok,

This is way OTT as it stands, its obtrusive and quite frankly in some circumstances completely stifles the flow of gameplay. Clearly a lot of work has gone into the content writing for this, no doubt - and unlike most eve players I'm generally quite receptive to change... for new players I'm sure it's exactly what they need.. but we really do need the ability to turn this off, do you know how congested our screens are going to be if another B-R happens?

Yes. Why not telling CCP in a nice way why those changes cause issues and ask them to turn this off soon. But all this crap of emorage is totally annoying... erm... amusing.

I somehow managed to completly disable my tooltips, either I found some hidden function or it bugged out.

Probably the latter.

Well I moved my cursor over your post and it said 'Damn straight!'.

Hover your name.

What does it say?

I wish we could turn them off. It is a pain to find out which station I want to warp to now that they all say station when moused over instead of giving me the station name.Ugh

I would like an option to remove the tooltips as well. Just when you rightclick the overview windows there should be an option "Disable tooltips".

Oh,

And i want it now.

Get to work CCP.

I understand it is handy for new players and retards, but i am neither of those. I actually have a vague grasp that if i see a square in space or on my overview, that it might just be a station. And if i hover my mouse of that square i want to see the particular name of that station and not that it is a station. I already know that.

please give us a disable option for the toolbar popup . multiple targets are a nightmare to deal with when you have these stupid bars appearing and reducing the amount of screen and the damn delay is awful too. also.. stop adding stuff without first checking with us. your destroying our game with this kinda crap.

at first when i noticed new tooltips i was like woah this is cool .... some belts / planets in clusters this is quite good thing
but then i noticed there is tooltip for items in overview? oh really? stating the obvious there - really bad
in pvp it has some cons and pros overall but i would turn it off myself some others might find it cool though
then i did one relic site and this is really some kind of special hell, really no

i bet you still working on it, but please give us option to turn this thing off

The "dumbing down" continues... time for the freshly minted CSM to make themselves useful, and get this stuff made optional.





b..b.but the last CSM was surely consulted about this.. Right?

It really does feel like i've just started EVE. This is great for when you first play but why isn't there an option to turn it off? 7 years in game, I know what a goddam planet icon looks like. Yet the worse thing is it actually messes with using the UI and items in space. How did this get through quality control?

Aside from it being extremely in your face and distracting it actually now displays less info then it used to.

Somebody went tooltip NUTZ.

This completely breaks exploration sites, it slows down being able to collect scatter containers while dodging popups. It's unplayable.

Please rollback this patch asap.
