ok i play on a 50 inch 1366x768 TV
my main issues as labeled in the picture is"
1. There is no option to "Scale Down" the UI, there is just not enough free space for me to not feel clustered.
Everything is always in the way to the point of me having to sacrifice things i want on my UI to make it comfortable
2. When I am in a combat ship with my fittings, they are so big they overlap my inventory, and i cant see my inventory very well and have to squish it up against the wall of my ui.
(meaning i have to tetris things all over to get it to be comfortable)
3. I wish i could scale down this CPU and fitting module there is no need for it to take up this much space on my screen.
i need a better window of view it would help also because i could fit more of my chat/inventory there.
4. Once again I cant scale down my chat and I almost have to have it extend it to the top of my screen just to keep an eye on the local channel, why can't the char portraits be smaller? its quite bulky and i can hardly fit more than 4 lines of talking in chat when I want to see the rest of my ui on the left of the screen. (lowest chat size setting enabled too)
5. once again I wish I could scale this information down so its not such a nuisance having it up.
I'm not upset or anything I am just stating for me, having to pay a monthly subscription, the ui sure isn't very flexible.
I am not gonna go buy another monitor so I can play this game that I have to pay for monthly, more comfortably.
I play all my other games just fine because you can scale down the UI, this has been an issue for so long, its the reason I stopped playing in 2013, I came back to see if any improvements have been made (cause I heard of the new expansion launch) and still there is no better optimization for UI scaling on low res monitors. So once again, I will not be resubbing after my first month is done because the ui is just too clustered on my screen its uncomfortable. |

ESC menu, 90% UI scaling is your best bet, beyond that you're going to have to be economical with your screen real estate.
Also Incase you weren't aware, if you double click the header on any of those windows they'll collapse so all that's on the screen is that header.
I mean this information is useful but they do a very poor job at communicating to the user. I use the 90% and it still sucks.
Even at that, I don't want to have to play with my windows minimized and whatever id like my ui to be open while i am playing. |

Thing is, even though the interface gets criticized every now and then, most people just live with it. I don't know how long you've been around, but if you know CCP and the Eve community, you can probably imagine the shitstorm if they were to implement a major interface revamp to bring it into the year 2016.
i am not asking for a revamp just an option to scale it down farther than 90%. |
