The UI - Enough is enough

yes you know what it is but not every player magically spends hours knowing what a agm88G is

and once again… if you actually read the post above…

Let players disable it if they want to. Not for it to be removed for everyone.

I dont understand why you arent getting this

let alone the fact that this “information” is given to you in 2 different places, which again, is just unneccessary.

One or the other, doesnt need both.

the reason you have overlapping UI is because why would a player but 3 keybinds for 1 button ofcourse the words will take too much space this overall would just a be a unhelpful update just becasse a few players dislike it doesn’t mean there need to be 100 options in the menu

why does this bother you really why

If they have researched the mod, equipped it to a custom loadout and entered a battle with it. Then I think know at least what it is, is a fairly reasonable assumption, and if they dont, then they should go do one of the in-game tutorials for it which it prompts you to do when you first unlock a new weapon, do online research like watching a video on youtube, or taking the weapon into a test flight for 5 minutes and having a play.

The idea that someone NEEDS to know what a AGM-88G is just because they failed to do the above, is just a weak argument, even weaker if you jsut let the player decide what information is and is not displayed

That is not the cause of it. At all.

I have 3 keybinds on one setting that results in random and unwanted warnings at the bottom of the screen.

That is not the reason why the Radar panel overlaps the minimap on some aircraft or the RWR overlaps the top left information panel. That is just bad UI design.

at this point, you are just making up nonsense

game tutorials are trash not helpful at all

your radar UI size can already be changed if you actually looked at the settings

Because i have a degree in Graphics design and bad UI design really annoys me. Especially with vast amounts of unnecessary UI that are displayed in multiple locations.

Its one of my biggest annoyances in games. period. a great game can be ruined by a messy and unnecessary UI. Especialyl annoying when there is no configuration options.

Let the player decide what they do and do not want to be displayed and EVERYONE wins.

Force a messy UI onto everyone, everyone looses

Radar scale can be. You cannot configure its position. You cannot configure the RWRs scale or position.

Nor does that explain why the radar on some aircraft, notably those with B-Scopes, overlap the minimap.

yup a game can be ruining because a button is red instead of blue and its 1 pixel too big

this brings it all back around to you Morvan you thinking too hard because you have a degree in this area nobody else would really care the only reason people are agreeing with you is because you made an issue that never existed and now it exist

Hu?

What are you on about?

Many people complain about the state of the UI and the lack of configuration options.

Yes, it annoys me, so I created a thread for it. But better configuration options benefit everyone.

If YOU want everything displayed, then in my proposal, I would suggest just having everything enabled.

But it is YOU who is making this into an issue, and suggesting that better UI configurability is a bad thing

What next, going to suggest that accessability options are a bad thing because its only an issue for some players?

where did I say it was bad I said it wouldnt change much gajin fixed the UI a while ago everyone said it was good and respected it now that you have made this people think its bad or unnecessary clutter which where did I say it wasn’t Im saying is you want the details in another place your basicly just moving things around not changing them

not the same , its like moving lines in a TT just to make it look more neat when it isn’t

They did not.

and this certainly didnt happen with the recent changes, such as the gun-type being displayed this major update. I dont think it was even on the dev server.

Im saying that I dont need details in 3 different places, and that a lot of these “details” I dont need at all. so let the player decide what they want to be shown.

Imo custom huds, similar to TF2’s, is better than trusting Gajin to fix it.

Laughs in B-52 with 8 Engines and full details shown while the RWR wants ro tell you something

That would be another option. One of the first things I do in most games is add mods that allow me to edit or hide the UI.

Needs to be done right so that its not exploitable given its a multiplayer game, but definetly could be done

here what will happen if or when this is added:just like war thunder lives customizable sights console players will once again be at a disadvantage some player will find out how to give every plane a MAWs or LWR players will have to spend 6 hours trying to figure out how to place 20-30+ buttons on the same screen they will miss something and die in a match because of it just remember be careful what you wishing for if you don’t have a whole degree to fix your own UI then just quit

God. didnt even think about that aircraft. Its bad enough with just 2 engines
