UI Change

[drake31]

Been playing S&F for a very long time and the UI change is be an inta-kill of my desire to continue. I really despise this trend of updating UI that is less efficient and more collated. It genuinely makes me not want to play anymore. No timers on the menus, no easy-clicking through various parts. Why abandon something simple and effective? Sure, it is definitely a force of habit, but a habit created across many years of playing the game.

For example, immediately what is off-putting is to click on one of the menus and then choose which part I actually want to go to. Why can't it be clicking on the specific menu which will immediately get us to the first option and then also being able to click through the main tab across those options? I mean if I click the "FIGHTS" tab get me straight to "ARENA" and clicking again the "FIGHTS" tab will move me across these subsequent menus. Not to mention having to hover over the icons to see the timers is annoying. Even a thing like login in after 10 hours won't show me the job was finished, I have to click through to get there,

I might give it a chance for the day, but I just hate it. I apologise for being so blunt, I'm sure a lot of people put a lot of work into this, but this just doesn't click with me.

Any chance to have an option to use the classic view?

True. The new art style and logo design looks like a massive downgrade in every way.

Yes some things are good but some are really bad. I dont know why the wheel and goblin is in the same category with the guild and mail -.-

Also, now I dont see the time of the city guard. I have to click on the tab first -.-

I completely agree. Although you could use Keyboard shortcuts, some of the bits from within menus are exclusively mouse controlled and got changed for no good reason.
I've also submitted my analysis here, hope they do something about it, as the changes are rather inconvenient than beneficial.

its just a pice of ♥♥♥♥ tbh

I also support a classic option.

From what I can tell, this will require me to spend 3X the amount of time to do the same things I've been doing for years -- just clicking through all the sub-menus and scrolling through screens.

(Guild fights are now easter eggs?!?)

Plus, I find myself squinting all the time even wearing glasses... Really? Smaller is better? Even on the old UI the hit-boxes were hit and miss...

the "new" layout is just crap. same opinion as #1 ..... NEVER CHANGE A RUNNING SYSTEM.... ffs, i want old layout back. was so much easier to find things

This new UI is very bad... It is not very intuitive and takes more time to do anything... I don't understand why they ruin the game?

I've been playing this game from 2019, so 5 years. This UI change is really making me want to quit the game. It is just too complicated.
At least give us an option to change between them.

Thanks for your feedback. We understand that changing the game drastically is something that many players don't like. However, we had to implement a new UI for upcoming features that wouldn't have had space in the old UI.

Please give it a chance as all new things need some time to get used to. :)

Sorry Leander but this UI is a crap fr many players will leave the game bc of it so think about it

Why didn't this update appear on the test server first? There are lots of mistakes!

humans are creatures of habbit. always and in every aspect. when you get used to something, it feels really bad when things change...
like "new recipe" for foodstuff.

"new" isnt always "good".

my thoughts for that : if you dont want to lose players, go back to old layout. or atleast give us the chance to decide between old and new.

Couldnt you just make a new MENU for those new features if they didnt fit.. slamming everything into 10 extra clicks, an looking like a small child set it up IS not progress.. >.< I spend more time jumping around between the menu spagette nightmare , then I do playing the game .. The sad part is the old MENUS are still there buried under all this pointless clutter an clicking..

[Terror - Toni]

like always and in every f....... game. devs decide something and change things. seen in last epoch, d3 and many other games. when you want to keep playerbase then stick to something. one mentioned that the new UI wasnt even on test server.. why not? then you could have seen if players like it or not.


overall, bad decision. but its your job , not mine.
