Hi guys,

I like that is shows you the full levels of AP the ememy have but I can't see what AP I'm getting from abilities like Nightstalker and Hoods move (whatever it's called). I preferred how I had to check myself for the full amount but I could see what I stole. Can we get a second AP bar pop up for what we steal and what they steal because I can't read it fast enough or memorise exactly what they had before to compare.

    Agreed, the older way was much better for characters like the Hood and OBW. Part of the fun with OBW was seeing the list of what you had just looted from your opponent and was way to unleash on them.

    Think it would be useful if you could select how the AP is displayed in the game options.

    The old method, while not ideal, was WORLDS better than the current. I used to check every couple turns because I could track in my head what they had and do the math based on the deltas shown. Now, because it 1) doesnt stay up long & 2) is so small I have to check frequently. More frequently than I did before. Or I stop caring what they have and risk it.

    Add on top of that it can block me switching targets for the length its up (even though short) its a huge step down.

    agree. new slider is(to me):
    1. too fast
    2. my eye not accustomed to vertical ap bar
    3. cannot fast-selecting enemy, usually againts goon, because slider get in the way
    4. dont have any idea, who steal who?(AP)

    just my opinion.

    I also have to agree. New slider is totally unreadable if you use characters with steal/AP reduce abilities.

    I have seen someone's proposal that changes in the AP could be marked with colors, e.g. red (reduce) and green (increase) - it could be a way for compromise.
  • I HATE this new slider. It just gets in the way when you're trying to change who to attack. Prefer the old way definitely !

    Can someone set up a poll to revert back to the old bar ASAP?
    And when they fix the new one, please get IceX to test it for 5 mins - any daily player would have found the serious flaws in this new bar.
  • So, I want to say I am totally agree with the other opinions.

    I want to know what color/amount of AP I am obtaining/stealing/reducing on my enemy´s pool.
