Lobby UI - Updated

[frvge]

Not every part of the screen should be filled with info. Some emptyness is also ok.

Well, uhh, thats common sense.
If I didnt put anything in that spot it would look open and bad.
I KNOW, becuse I'v tried.
Now, if you can help me find something to put in there, then thanks, but if not, then with this layout I don't know what else to put in there.

What happends if someone plays story mode/deathmatch with 10 lives and 30 mins? Wouldn't in be easier to just look at that one spot to see the basic info?

Just thinking of convenience here. It's easier to have the basic things on the main page then to have a thousand popup windows.

Yes, i prefer to have it all on 1 screen.

and i prefer not to have custom settings at all.

I keep looking at all these UIs, and I think to myself:

"How are we supposed to switch teams??". I can't find the "Switch Team" button in any of the UIs.

the team names are buttons.

gj with the new layout. i miss the comic style background in the chat box. the game options are quite redundant, use this space for a larger chat box and maybe some friend list stuff...

Oh... sorry... didn't notice...  :-[


Good job on the UI, anyway! :D

maybe mixture of your new design and blobs redesign works out fine.
where's the "ready" button? the little checkbox next to the player?
there is one problem with seeing the teammate's eq: the enemy could do a fast team switch and take a look. so maybe this should only be available with 2 players on one side for 5 seconds or something similar.

Good point there. Maybe a confirmation message is send first: "Do you want to allowed [player on your team] to see your equip?"

no need with a clever system. something like show eq if 2 on each team + no team change for the last 5 seconds + host ready to launch/one player ready.
i really like the idea of the drop down menue, if it's done right there is no need for the ugly equipment button ;)
as kebap mentionend before, there is still a lack of focus on the map and the players.

I think only you should be able to see your equipment. If the guy is your mate, he probably already knows what you have, if he's not, just tell him.

the crucial difference between a good ui and an excellent ui is the effectiveness for the user.

Agreed. I want the option to show my eq to the m8.
