in one word, no.
it doesnt work that way, it all has to do with your espy tech. there is a formula, but it escapes me. its really not complicated. if you probe someone with 10 espy ships and dont get a full report, send 40. if you arent getting a full report it is because the player you are probing has a higher tech level than you. you can either build tons of probes, or work on getting your tech up. personally, i would suggest the latter.
