Need to see CR and CE in the HUD not the arsenal.

No need for all the pop-ups, inventory full, what heat does, etc, for instance, when clicking on the arsenal to see ME/CE and CR, if the mouse is left to hover after click, ME is covered by the "arsenal" pop-up.

No need for health and shield in Haven.

No need for a silly portrait.

In a game that already suffers lag, especially on less than powerful machines, all the added info drags on the processor causing more lag.

No need for rank above name, just clutters Haven even more.

We know who our friends are, revert to personal colors please.

Haven mini-map now looks like you are swimming in mud, give back player colors, also kinda kills the game of hide and seek.

Why can a more powerful player not be nice and drop a vita for a less powerful teammate?

So much for team cooperation, every robot for itself I guess.

All in all, not a very progressive UI update.

I know that this thread will most likely fall on deaf ears.
I really hope that all concerned will not continue to repeat history, and actually listen to your paying playerbase this time.

Happy Hunting

More complaints

The microphone cannot be toggled on or off.

Portrait can stay (it's cool!).

The ranks above players names can be disabled by going into options.

What I think of this

90% of your complaints I personally have no problem with.

The other 10%? I agree with how having to access your inventory just to see how much crowns and energy you have is annoying, and I also think the no vitapod drop thing is ridiculous, but that's not a GUI complaint.

Another complaint: I can no longer see how much max health my teammate has, so it's hard to tell whether or not he/she would benefit more from a vitapod.

Name colors

I don't like the whole White green blue for names. Green is bugged anyway since if you aren't in a guild, others that are guildless as well will be green and white has too much contrast in my opinion. Why not this:

Name colors: Just like they were. Personal colors are name colors.

Guild mate: Guild Name be green or have an sign above it

Friend: I think we know who our friends are on this game

You can turn off the rank thing if you want.

I agree with the rest.

I'm with Super-Ratman

The only problems with the new UI is that the arsenal must be open to see how many crowns and energy you have.
Also the name colors thing could be put back to personal colors.
You can't drop a vitapod
You can't see how much health your teammate has left
That's the 15% I hate
