Isathrea Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 If not removed completely, please give us an on/off option for it. Dude, where is the hotfix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROSS- Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 the UI thing prompted a short discussion in my guild this evening (about 25 ppl logged in). Most seemed to like the change (for the record, i noted that I had trouble seeing when abilities were up). Go figure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JahloveFH Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 This new UI is just awful and abysmal if you play a class that uses rage. Give us the option to turn it off, it was fine the way it was before this patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senatsu Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Things like these are not possible to be hotfixed seeing as they are client side, not server side. Stop ************, sit down and eat a sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaalon Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 And I thought BW could sink no lower after having endured their terrible UI for a few weeks. Holy crap... you guys really are some of the worst game developers in the history of MMOs.... For me, BW has now earned a special place in the Hall of Fail, right beside Cryptic and FunCom.

Ushela Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 worst UI ive ever seen in an MMO currently. I would revert asap if i was you BW... /signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fentz Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 the way they are going and not putting options in so you can choose which version you wanna use, addons can't come soon enough also everyone complaining about this but are also anti-addons, guess what would have fixed this? exactly, addons would.

Piddletrenthyde Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Yeah I have had ZERO problems with the old Action Bars but now... I really don't think they will "fix" this because it is now "working as intended™" See, this is why people need to quit ************ about **** that's not broken in the first place. The crybaby PvPers are going to be the next vocal minority to **** up this game. You mark my words! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mark my words! the system that was in place at launch, no 1 complained about it (I personally didn't see anyone complaining) the system they put in after that, which didn't grey out cooldowns, people complained cuz you couldn't see if a CD was ready to use or not the last few seconds of the CD (this was a stupid change, yes they needed to change it) but they gave us an even more crappy system now, they did not fix the thing that was wrong with the second system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharagonIGN Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 They don't need add-ons to fix this. They don't need options to toggle it. They need to log onto WoW for five minutes, take some !@#$ing notes, and create a UI that isn't made of duct tape and piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been in since day 2 of EA and I never noticed anything different with my clickies until today. The second change must have REALLY been stealthy!

Gartzen Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Yes, beta/release UI was the best so far, and it's getting worse patch after patch. Next patch the ui will be all fireworks, but we won't be able to see abilities, so we'll have to randomly push buttons and pray it's what we want to press.

But they shouldn't stick around there long enough to pick up any of WoWs bad habits though. I still can't fathom them not having a customizable UI at launch.

Piddletrenthyde Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 UI in beta was fine. They screwed it up in the first patch after release! I was in the last Beta weekend and I don't remember being able to move the UI around to suit my (the paying customer) playing style. I vividly remember saying to myself "well this is all kinds of ****ed up, I can't move anything around". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashphael Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Dude, where is the UI-patch? Waiting to be pushed to live servers untested coming saturday, starting at 10am GMT and ending at 4pm GMT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmiond Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 UI in beta was fine. They screwed it up in the first patch after release! That is your opinion. While the UI was workable during beta it has always needed a fair amount of work. The previous change wasn't worse than the original, and the current is 'ok' but still needs a fair amount of work.

Asparhruk Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Guys, stop being naive about add-ons. THERE WILL NOT BE ADD-ONS ANY TIME SOON, OR EVER! Why did i caps-ed that? Because i can not stress enough how delusional all ppl (no offend meant, just being sad) are about the way things are. BW is using Scaleform for the UI in SWTOR. Do you guys know what this is? It is almost IMPOSSIBLE to do anything outside the dev team and a certain Very Expensive tools (the Scaleform tools) for the UI. Its an expensive, licensed software that is very tightly connected to the dev process, plus it uses Flash and "incorporating" it into DirectX to create the GUI. No way we can have user add-ons anytime soon. Actually i don't think we will have any at all. Just wanted to tell you the truth so you don't keep hopes for that in vain. I would be glad if i was wrong, but i don't see a way, from a pure technical point of view, for creating a mechanism for user created add-ons in SWTOR any time in the near or even far future.
