Title says it. With the quick draw, moon map, and dash bots, I think it's time Pix works on the game itself. I've always felt the U.I. felt cluttered and slow; the weapon and bots selection screens don't need to be so big. Maybe not having EVERY weapon with a picture. Hardpoint categories with weapon type subs grouped by level or something of that nature. Having the player names always visible makes the battlefield look too cluttered for my taste also. Maybe leave the small cheverons and only show the name when targeted? I'd also LOVE to see some controller intergration. A game like this would be much more satisfying with a little more accuracy in not only aim but single fire of hardpoints. On a number of occasions I have accidentally fired when attempting to lock target (fat fingers?). Let me know what you think.

The UI they demoed on the test server this past weekend was flat out horrible! The Current UI is WAY better than the new one there working on. If they want to improve it, work on better inventory organization and weapons sorting. Personally I think the new Interface looks cluttered and the aim lock button off to the right and not underneath the fire button is just plain stupid. People have been asking for months to see the blue teams health also but it seems to be something Pix isnt interested in doing.

Can I vote for more maps twice? They did such a great job with the moon map, I'd be very interested in seeing what else they can come up with.
That said, I agree all UI's could use some significant work. Especially everything related to chatting, squadding, viewing/accepting invites, etc.

Before Pix releases any new weapons/bots/maps/etc. the current game needs to be fixed. Playing for about 3-4 weeks now and server issues, map bugs, and weapon bugs only seem to be getting worse. Game ran so well almost a month ago, minus cluttered effect from too much useless 「dookie」 being shown on HUD and weapons sorting sucks a big one.

I also think it would be nice to add a little more value to premium. Maybe an extra upgrade slot during the premium duration. Being able to upgrade two weapons (or bots) at once would be awesome.

Totally agree, maybe a Clash of Clans styled upgrade system with a max of 3. Pay increasing amounts of gold for "mechanics", which allow you to upgrade more things than one at a time, a little doubtful on this because this may break the game.

Good point. Then how about a % reduction of upgrade times?

Good point. Then how about a % reduction of upgrade times? What do you mean? Like an added time for 2nd or 3rd mechanics? Then again, they could take another turn and make you allowed to upgrade mechanics to have normal upgrade times.

No. Simply reducing upgrade time by X percent for premium. Just a thought. Premium doesn't seem too worth it for the 50% silver.

No. Simply reducing upgrade time by X percent for premium. YES! Maybe 15% or so, or maybe it should just vary by league, another way to try to repel tankers, increase rewards for higher leagues.

1. Fix the mm! All above suggestions sound reasonable after that. Particularly the UI needs work

II think they need to add more stuff like different drones that can help you in battle and perks you can ad do to your bot

Bots: we are already getting Korea Game itself: my main complaint is lag which they should be fixing anyways wepons sorting would also be nice and not hard to add Weapons: had the same ones for ages need new ones mbaye a new type like the traps in battle Titans or elemental or even ones like they've had in test server Maps: we just got moon they take up a lot of graphics work not a big prioritie

In addition to moon, Valley & Cargo Ship are in the works. I personally found the rotated aim button less awkward to reach but that will be everyone's personal preference. They did say the UI change allows for other features the other one didn't, maybe it will make team health bars possible. I like the new Battle UI but really hope they can make the elements sizable/movable. There are currently 4 Prototype weapons that look good (Heavy Plasma, Tempest, Scourge, Flamethrower) I would personally also like to see:
1. Being able to change the order my bots show in my main hanger (not my 5 slot active hanger) 2. Fix the sorting of weapons, they are kind of all over the place 3. Add a ready check button to squad & the ability to modify your hanger without dropping squad 4. Replace the FB friends list with an in game friends list that you can search up a pilot & send a request to add them.

4. Replace the FB friends list with an in game friends list that you can search up a pilot & send a request to add them. I COMPLETELY agree. As someone without Facebook... I know... I have been a long time lone wolf. And the fact that there isn't any ingame connections is pretty sad. I'm not ready for a clan, that feels like a commitment... and I don't have three months salary saved. I feel like that would falls under... General U.I. ? Really wish I could add more than 5 options... and now that people have voted I don't want to change them.

There are plenty of clans for mid level players, some are even chapters of some of the serious ones My main account is in KOMM and is my "competitive" account, I guess. I have to other pet accounts around 6/7 in a friends clan, both are pretty chill. I don't use FB normally, I made an account just for War Robots.

It's always been a personal rule to finish the campaign before hitting multiplayer. So, I guess getting a good hangar and requips I'm comfortable with would be the campaign. And I'm a one clan man, so I have to pick the right one. It has to make me feel wanted and understand when I go off into the corner of the map to see if I can climb that building. Plus nowadays it's cheaper to keep her.?

The huge variance in skill in War Robots does make knowing you have solid back up a huge advantage, If you decide you wan't to give it a try I'd suggest talking to Dredd77 about the different Aurora Nova chapters, he totally understands the need to see if you can climb buildings in corners

Where is the option for the 6th slot? And the 7th and the 8th..... 5 slot hangars are good enough and balanced for the game. And as other members have mentioned, the current interface of the game needs to be improved and de-bugged. At times when I'm in a match, my blue griff marched for less than 10 seconds, the screen froze, and the app crashed.. What...? This started happening only from the last update (v2.9) In other news, the new targeting reticle is actually pretty good, you just got to get used to it. Although it wouldn't hurt to actually only show a player's name that you are locked onto etc.

shaolinrogue Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. I keep hoping to find a Netmarble monster being stomped by a Vityaz, easter egg. Not to mention a great new vantage point.

So, I edited... well couldn't figure out how to edit so I had to delete and rewrite, the poll to include MM and combined the two UI options.

bring in - in game chat bring in - more maps bring in - balancing and refining the game bring in - some mechanism where players of different leagues can squad
no more bots and weapons (enough) no more slots (5 enough)- but hang on. i'd love to play my Cossack again.
ahhhh - MM? they will never get it right because its very tough to get right. maybe tweak it slowly so players see a positive progression toward a better match making system (like a 911 Porsche, crap at first but awesome now). with small positive incremental improvements people will develop trust, understanding and faith.
