Does blizz have any plans on reverting or fixing this hilariously bad character selection menu

this is probably the worst ui design i’ve seen in the past 15 years. i’m almost convinced a rogue dev back doored this into the game because if anyone else laid eyes on them they would have asked wtf he was thinking.

I went and checked it out last night since I normally play Classic. It looks awesome, but the character selection part needs to be filtered much better. There are characters there I don’t even remember making, let alone trying to figure out which character/server is the right one.

Never mind the atrociously bad UI/UX designs in the recent update - they’re just preparing for the console release.

“Poop boy”?
Man why did you have to lay into him so hard? That was way too extreme

it was a reference they made previously.

they believe changes to the game, are the same as someone smearing :poop: on your wall.

not entirely sure where they got that idea, or how they figured pixels and a biohazard are the same thing :woman_shrugging:

Sure they will say no because it is for the console release. Though I at least should be able to group by server or search by it. The fact I can’t drop the server name in the search and see all on that server alone was a major wtf.

I think it’s ok but it does need more options and filters.

Agreed. My main problem is the UI Scaling issue… things are way too big.

Are we complaining about a screen you spend all of 3 seconds on selecting a character? They should never have spent money on it to begin with.

Would love for racial type locations instead of a basic camp. Pretty much, like the dock of Bilgewater Harbor with parts of the city and defunked laser in the background would be cool.

Or, been thinking of making a collection of Worgen here soon. So… Having the Gilneas Town Square instead of a camp. You know simple little things like that.

They intend to have different backgrounds at some stage.

Can we please just have them organized? I stick to the same names on different servers whenever possible so it’s super confusing. I also have characters that I haven’t played in years thrown at the very top. They should have sorted them by servers or at least time played lol

It new character screen is excellent. It needs a few minor updates/fixes - particularly scaling and an easier way to view/sort by server.

I do not buy for a minute that you, or anyone else, can’t type “Mage” in the search bar and quickly pick out the character you wanted from the list.

Yeah, someone out there has 20 characters that are all Tauren Paladins named some variation of Holycow, and the UI is probably more annoying for them than it was a week ago, but that’s hardly the norm.

It definitely needs some sort/filter options. Whether or not they actually add them may depend on how bruised their egos are.

Coolios. Now to introduce the Goblin Hot Rod from intro quest as a Four Setter mount with the Gilneas Carriage as the other four setter lol along with stop them making my UI tiny on every other character please lol.

Man…I’m gonna run out of flags today. That hasn’t happened in a while.
