It’s just… odd. It doesn’t look very clean and the adding of the small tab above each vehicle is just downright irritating to look at as it doesn’t serve much purpose. Like why not have it at the bottom with the crew level?
It’s so ugly. They need to hide the backups on a separate screen, and get rid of the button in the middle. If I want to click on a vehicle, I’ll accidentally click the useless button that appears in the middle of the vehicle’s icon.
I don’t understand why did they have to change color of damaged vehicles. Now you cannot distinguish between damaged vehicles and vehicles not applicable for set game mode by quick eye look. This is brutally annoying. Please take the red color back.
I do agree BUT IVE JUST FOUND ONE OF 12 NAVAL PLAYERS
the crew number really shouldn’t of taken a spot in the main image card, it’s already a pretty ugly image when it comes to clutter and now we have less info to our disposal at the cost of more clutter in the foreground.
They should hire an actual UI designer and not give the janitor 5 bucks to figure something out … no way someone who knows what they’re doing was involved in any aspect of their UI, it’s all visually lacking, convoluted and messy.
At first I didn’t like it – it was too “busy” and cluttered. But I thought I’d give it a week and I might get used to it.
It does try to present more information at once which seems nice.
After a week I still really don’t like it. It’s too busy and cluttered … and why do the backups take up so much space… The crew number seems useless too…
(Actually, on the crew number… I’ve always thought they should give the ability to name crews. Even have different profile pics for them… ,maybe even be able to choose individual crew members with different skills… .think Jagged Alliance, if you know it…but not with mercenaries as this is more a traditional military game… but along those lines… bit of a mini logistical game inside the main game)
That’s what VALVe said about the new Steam ui and I still hate it.
I do wish the switch crew button was a bit more a menu-based one, as it’s a bit more serious of a misclick than the switch vehicle one.
And they’re so tight/squashed that they really could be reverted.
You’re going to swap vehicles, more often than you are going to switch the crew positions after all.
My thoughts too. But then, I’m at a bit of a loss why reordering crew positions is actually a thing. I can see it being a personal, cosmetic matter of how it appears on screen (which then shouldn’t need constant re-shuffling), but am I missing something here and does it actually do something in game mechanics?
Seems completely pointless to me beyond a preference for ordering vehicles in a certain way, no idea why they wasted time on developing this.
