Just a suggestion. There are a lot of pop ups that can only be removed by clicking "ok". Like on exit, asking if I am sure I want to exit after I already clicked on a rather small button to exit.

Remove a lot of these or at least allow the escape key to remove them; that way we don;t have to micro manage the closing of so many windows.

Thanks.

Figured I would merge my other topic here. No point in multiple posting . Plus I came up with more examples of needless popups, which follow the quote.

So... (1) The Log off button, when selected, has a pop up asking confirmation. Two clicks just to get to the log screen. Then the exit button and another confirmation. 4 Buttons minimum to exit the game? Unnecessary.

(2) faction battle popups... obscure part of my screen. I can't see the data of the mech I am working on... I remove on, two more pop up. As I noted elsewhere:

Quote

Looking at mech stats, I have these pop ups constantly. Whether modifying my own mech or looking in the store. it blocks my view of the stats. I x one, two more pop up.

A bit frustrating. Please shrink their size/relocate them to a place that doesn't constantly block the view.


Thanks.


EDIT:
Oh, I know. make it a button the same size as quick play and to the right of quick play. Have it light up and drop down when hovered over or such.



(3) I edit a mech, move left to the tiny button to hit save. A pop up then arrives asking me if I am sure, since my mech has changed. Yes... I changed it and hit save, so I think its clear I want to save it. As soon as I remove that pop up another arrives asking if I want to save my mech... So it takes 3 clicks every time to save any adjustments. Not necessary.


(4) I cancel a match search. A pop up arrives telling me... yup... I just canceled a map search. Why? I t already know this.... It is unnecessary.


I mean no offense by these points. It is just that there are so many extra pop ups, repeatedly, that it is a bit tedious and time consuming. Please streamline this by removing the redundancy - if need must be, just make a text overlay appear at the top or somewhere that does not obscure other information, that fades after a short time - that does not require a "ok" to remove.

Adding a function where pressing "esc" clears these would be a big improvement even. As it is, you must manually clock ok on all of them...


Thank you for your consideration.

Put all these in a notification tab, chat tab. Stop the pop ups plz.
