Check the new static one. The moving one was too dizzy indeed.

Instead of simply hovering your mouse over a player's name (in the galaxy view) and a small pop-up window showing you their rank, etc., you now must click on each player's name and wait for (a slow) window to open that will give you the same info that you used to get simply by hovering your mouse.

I have already spent 4 times as long to do my daily scouting(probing) for viable targets, but I am only about 1/3 of the way done. :wall: PLEASE, I don't care if we go back to the old symbol or keep the new one, but go back to the old system for checking a player's rank in the galaxy view. :cry:

Well, the only info the old popup provided was the RANK. We could put the rank next to the name perhaps if it is that crucial.

EDIT: With the slight adjustment we did to profile page today, rank detection is easier (and faster).

But it is still slower than being able to just mouse over a player and see their rank. I know that I used that feature before every probe that I did. I do like all the extra info you can get from the profile however.

Also the frozen icon is way better thanks!

As I said, we could put rank to be visible near name. However with the new way, instead of rank you can always check other important and crucial information about the emperor you are about to attack.

Personally, I think that the extra 1 second worths the trouble.

I like the idea of putting the rank next to the name. Then I wouldn't even have to bother to mouse over the name. That makes me sound so lazy, probably because I am.

That would be just fine if it only took 1 second, (maybe it's just my connection) but it takes about 15-20 seconds to check rank on each system. Since I check about 300 systems per day and they probably average about 5 planets each, that would conservativly make 375 extra minutes extra to check ranks every time I am sending probes out(daily).

So, now my question is as follows: Do you really think that the extra amount of time WASTED per day on the new system is really worth it??? I don't...
