If you watch football, would you like to see 30% of the screen covered? No, but in football you can easily decipher what's going on. Adding the EW for example I find super helpful in terms of finding out who is doing what.
you can still do that while keeping the screen clear. we don't need to see the guys face 24/7. I liked it better when you used the bottom space to bring up a 2nd camera. Having one camera doing top view to see the whole field, while the main camera focuses on eye candy was the best.
If you want the bottom screen to be handly replace video of guys face with a top down view of the battle field. Also make it transparent. I could draw up a quick design...

ok, i think it's better than ever, but i miss being able to visually identify the ships.
The little icons for ship were really helpful. Maybe you should stick those ship icons NOAH made last year next to each ship name? YOu know, the cool ones that were for frigate, cruiser,battleship. Not everyone knows which ship is which above. becuase you could see a picture of each ship on each side, it was useful.
Combine this new UI with something to make it easy to see which ships are which. We don't all memorize every ship name. I know which is which, but non-eve players can't remember every single ship. Make it easier to tell whats going on.
love the EW stuff and the 2ns camera on 24/7

The only complaint I've heard that has any validity IMHO is that it is too hard to read the tactical inset, and it would be nice if it was popped up onto the main display much more often.
A version of the tactical which had colored flags on each ship that ID'd the team and ship type would be really nice; it would help the commentators explain the strategy a bit better. Hopefully for the finals they'll have control of what goes into the main panel. 1. Scrap the commentator cam for a bigger tactical overlay 2. Make blank white space transparent 3. ??? 4. Profit
glad I voted for you : )

Does anyone have a screenshot of the new UI? I'm almost done with my super awesome mock up of a new UI using the same elements, it looks great! just need graphics of current UI so I don't miss anything.

I LOVE the information in the new scoreboard Hate to agree with a goon but I agree, mostly. Need to change the white to a less horrible colour and if at all possible only show jams when they are actually jammed, rather than just when someone is attempting to jam them. And get better internet, HD looked great and ran smoothly
ugh can't somesome get a single screenshot of the new UI? when will they be posted on youtube or somewhere?

VR Highfive wrote:I am sorry to read all the crap the interface and the broadcast is getting from some people here. Do you remember that last year there was no streams of the quantifying rounds at all? Just the finals were broadcast. So that is a 100% improvement this year over last year. Good job CCP, Soundwave , production crew, commentators and all others making this possible. Thanx! Really appreciate it. Anyways, I really enjoyed watching it and the interface works. I like to see whats going on and it also helps commentators, so great. Keep it in. Quote:I agree. I liked AT9s interface a lot more. It was way easier to watch on our TV. CCP can't compensate for that you have a crappy TV. Grow up.
hey learn to take criticism better. just because some people think it could be better doesn't mean we are grateful, jezz. This happens every year and CCP make a few adjustments.

Fatyn wrote:I think the new info at the bottom of the screen is a nice addition this year. Basically what you get that's new this year is:
1) EWAR icons next to ships - Very Cool*
2) Speed of ships - Cool
3) Points cost of ships - Quite Nice
5) Lots of white space - :(
4) Webcam of commentators in bedrooms - Not Cool At All
* The ECM icon shows up whenever a bunch of ECM drones are assigned to a target, or whenever an ECM module is activated on a target, regardless of whether or not there is a successful jam. I would like to see CCP fix it so that the icon only shows on successful jams - currently it is even confusing the commentators (is that a shield boosting blackbird!?) let alone the viewers.
The tactical zoomed out tactical display is way too small, but I wouldn't want it to replace the main screen of srsbsns spaceship explosions.
I don't want to see John Motson when I'm watching the FA Cup final, and I don't what to see MBIII unless he is drunk on an alliance panel. Bringing the 'off duty' commentators in for the studio fills between matches worked fine last year - don't change it. Also bring back Shadoo at all costs.
My suggestion for layout would be to ditch the webcam box, move the team info out into the bottom corners, using white or light coloured text and bars on a transparent background (ie showing mostly dark space action behind) and get rid of the blank white rubbish completely. Then use the extra space created in the centre for an enlarged visual of the tactical display. Maybe periodically cut away from the action for 5-10 seconds to show the tactical display (with ship labels) full-screen.
That's just it, the window of the map and the guys face could be combined into one large image of the tactical view. check out my picture I made. it needs some work but yeah.
