so now my fingers have to respond in a micro second to catch anything in overview

First of all sorry if I make some mistake, not an english native speaker.

Pre-patch overview had several issues, I agree, but ships appeared at the exact time (or at least faster than now) they appeared in space when crossing a gate, decloak, etc; now there´s a delay that makes imposible to catch pods, frigates, fast cruisers, etc. Before patch, in our corp, we where able to point almost anything that crossed a gate, of course with and instalocking ship (around 3000 scan res), even cloaky transports and recons if they where not to fast activating the cloaking device. After patch we have only pointed 3 pods in more than 70 kills. To any pilot making piracy or small gang ops its simply making his gameplay ****.

Worst thing is that there is not a single dev response about if this is and intended game change or its a bug and I will see a fix, i´ve tried to know via petition, bug notification and the 2 threads in this forum. But I´m still waiting some response, maybe i will know before my game subscription ends.

This ^ ^

thanks for explaining it so clear

+1

Another day without a single DEV response about if the overview´s delay is an intended change or a bug.

Crash fixes: Good (if they work, for a change)

Still no toggle for lock Overview on mouse-over: No Words.

The auto locking/unlocking overview is ***** ****** ********************** ** * * * * really absolutely unintuitive.
Please change it back to CTRL = lock so I can get pod killed again.

Or, as an alternative to the nerd-rage neckbeard flame posts being tossed out in this thread....

Dear CCP:
- Please add a toggle switch to the overview settings allowing us to disable the auto-lock if we prefer the old behavior
- There appears to be a greater delay between something showing up in space and appearing on the overview. Could you please look into this?

Thanks.

I do not wish to appear like a soft unhappy customer who wishes that CCP might eventually and only if they have time, looks at my concerns.
I must react as that, what they understand. A 'hostile' upset customer who thinks that they cant do anything right the last time and that I am pissed about the behavior of the CCP employees, who denies a correct answer to the legit questions and stated problems.

Go back into this thread and you will find some of my statements to the known problems. To make this crap optional, with a checkbox into the overview settings, was also one proposal some pages ago. Did CCP answered any of them? Did they answered any input from others? NO! CCP NEVER comments unpopular input from their customers. All they understand is a event like "Protest in Jita". You must kick those "sleepy head" into the arse that they awake from their dream to be the best company with the best game in the internet.
Fact is: they change things, that where never broken; or where never was a demand for a change. And after another fail they ask their customer for feedback but ignore them and go ahead as there was nothing.

Again: Explain, what is this sh!t with this automatic mouseOver-lock in the overview? Why do you think, that it would be good to force all people with this unwanted sh!t? Why do you NOT make this crap optional with a checkbox into the overview settings?
Why are you unable to offer a working overview with a proper sorting "AS I HAVE ADJUSTED"? Why must I use this crap with a random and incalculable overview like this?

You can see, that nothing is correct. The big station is on a wrong position in my overview; no distance matches to each other but my small drones are on top of my view, and why where this three small enemy frigs seperated from the rest of the group in my overview- seperated through some wrecks?

The overview is badly broken. But CCP dont care about this. THIS is the fact; this is why I am upset. They ignore us.. since 13 pages of feedback and 11 pages of issues in this forum!

Unfortunately people that thought i was moaning to begin with are really only just starting to see the time and again problems with the current overview lock system. Ive told people to come here but doesnt seem they have yet.

Its not as though its utterly game breaking, but its just a step backwards into some dog-****.

Current overview locking is not as good as it was, similar to if they intentionally downgraded graphics or increasing lag or load times and then claiming its an improvement.

Current overview lock is not an improvement over a user controlled overview lock toggle, so, bring back the toggle ASAP...

If you have no intention of doing this come here explain why and take the heat for breaking something else that used to work fine for the vast majority of people.

Expecting people to sit there waving their mouse around like idiots to lock the overview as its the only way to control where a new item on the list is going to appear (at the bottom, unlucky if you have over a page of items on your overview since you will have to scroll down one more entry to see it) is surely an early april fools, cmon guys.

Not being able to have a pod appear mid overview after a ship goes down without anticipating it 5 seconds earlier and guessing where it will appear and bringing the mouse to a complete rest where you think it will be (then being wrong) is ******* stupid. Alternatively keeping the mouse off the overview to keep it unlocked to catch pods is as they appear near their kersploading ship is very unintuitive.

Dont ignore it guys, sack the guy who thought of it, im pretty sure he/she is one of the people that really shouldnt be working on the game as they seem know nothing about it anyway.

Read again and please stop trolling.
The problem is a random and absolut not adjustable sorting and this useless, but annoying, mouseOverlock.

Oh.. and the deny of a comment from CCP to our (negative) feedback.

But I am sorry, that I am unable to reveal the problem to you 'TAG VI'.
