Make new upgrade screen optional!

Post by Gomoto »

I do not like the new upgrade screen. To many numbers, I really prefer to click on the units to compare old and new stats.
Please make the small numbers with the black numbers only optional.

Otherwise this game is a gem!
I like the rugged defense and other new features.

After reconsidering and further playtesting, please make the black background numbers optional.
They make the reading very difficult indeed.

Those numbers are very small indeed and it would help,at least on my big screen,if the comparison values would work with different colors.
Just like world of warcraft,statsnumbers of a new equipment which are better than the one u have are green and those which are worse are red.

So u don't have to go thru all the numbers in detail all the time when upgrading.
One can tell right away if u see red numbers all over it that u don't want it and if they are green
numbers everywhere u need it.
Only if its say half red half green u take a closer look at it and consider...

This could help new players also.
Especially if they have no idea of ww2 vehicles and units to make a fast,but still wise decision when upgrading.

I really like them as well - it makes it easier to compare units without having to click back all the time.

I think it's good to be able to compare and I like that part. The way it is done now looks unfinished but will work (for me) if it gets a little more attention esthetically. It can look nicer end at the moment it isn't easy to compare the values. Maybe other fonts, maybe color? I like the possibility but at the moment it is not functional and it doesn't look nice (but it looks like something that will be changed and beautifulized)

Like Razz1, I don't like this, evrything that troubles legibility of a text is a reason more of potential commercial failure!
The game interface must be user-friendly, otherwise...

user-friendly is the word I was looking for. I think it has potential but is not working at the moment. To be very honest it appalled me and I didn't want to use that screen anymore (just my pure feeling). But I think it is in a working stage and will get better and nicer and user-friendly.

I like this idea! It would have the advantage of being visually pleasing and useful!

Yea Red and Green is something we're talking about, and hopefully it will make it, but there's a lot to do and not much time, so it may have to wait till after release. There's no reason NOT to do it, except time. :)
