Love the new UI

[Scrysis]

I just want to say that I really love the new UI.  I know that it will take some getting used to, but I really like the additional right-click options that I don't remember having before.  It also looks more appropriate for an alien implant in the arm.  Not to mention that it also looks cleaner to me.

I personally hate it, to tek looking and considering tek is only about 15% of the game IMO it dosnt fit.

I dislike that it defaults to engrams, I can't see how many I can craft, the craft all drop down,  I could go on.

 

I use an Xbox controller with a chat pat and was able to do 99% with the old UI  now I need to have my mouse right beside me just to right click to bring down drop downs.

I like it, takes a little getting used to and I think there's still room for some improvement. I don't like how so much room us taken up by a selfie of our character, not needed in my opinion. And the tabs on the top need to be better defined, as it is now they just melt into the look and was not intuitive at first.

I think it's supposed to look tek ... because it is tek! It's some advanced technology embedded in our forearm ffs...hehe

I think they should add back in the total amount that can be crafted, and craft all should craft all and not just one stack, but I think these are obvious improvements that are easily added back in.

Not just that ... ANY other screen other than the first inventory screen are literal cut and pastes from the old UI LOLOLOL.

"Hey guys we really need a cool screenshot for the Steam sale that's going to coinicide with this awesome patch!  Can we just do one UI screen dont worry about the other screens - only players can see that and they'll already have paid for the game anyway."

So you like it based on how it looks? No mention on how it is slower, shows less information, its laggy, takes more time to do the same task than before. 

How is this better? its worse but with plastic surgery.

Actually, the context menu now does appear to show the quantity next to "Craft All". Can't remember if it was yesterday or this morning that I noticed it; the absence of that info was one of the first things I noticed when the initial patch hit.

I have also noticed transferring 5 at once doesn't seem to work the same way it used to. I used to hold shift down and click on  a stack to transfer 5 at a time. I couldn't seem to get that to work on sunday. Not sure if I was just being a spastic or not. anyone else encounter that

Yup.  At first, you couldnt do it at all.  Now, if I remember from last night, it only goes one way. 

I honestly just don't get the thought behind the new UI.  At first, I *may* have thought the design was cool and refreshing.  But the actual use of it is so bass ackwards that I genuinely thought it was an april fools joke gone terribly wrong.

I don't like that it shows less information in certain places, or that you have to click at the tabs along the top. For me it's leaps and bounds quicker than what it was before, and no need of a script to click to feed tames, etc. Maybe turn off inventory transitions? It pops up instantly for me.

haha yeah at first I was like yeah this looks pretty, but seemingly mechanical is unfit for use

I tend to like it as well but I have a few problems with it. They need to make the slots in an inventory clearer for one, invantorys with just a few slots are not all that clear. They also need to add back the current weight metric for newly bread Dino's again too.

 Actually you are wrong, the TEK ''enviroment'' is THE essential part of ark, storyline and desing. Just look around you, you will see how much everything is filled with the ''TEKY'' feel.

Considering it's total end game that only a % is interested in let alone achieve, it's a small % of the game.  

 

IMO

You literally have "teky" obelisks floating around on the island and a weird alien implant in your arm, and you see these things long before you even get to fight raid bosses.

Yea and poopty thatch huts and wood and stone then metal and lastly tek.  

 

What level are the tek stuff but like I said In my opinion or I can't have one of those?  I dislike the new UI and prefer the old one for the reasons that I stated. 

 

Different fokes different strokes, if you like it I am happy for you.
