The new ui\ux is a disaster.

[Caecilius]

Cookie clicker v2.0. Can't post all images, 10 is the limit. I just want to complete the mission. New ui\ux is a disaster, did the designer get the job through the bed?

 

[Caecilius]

Every button has different shape, color, place, size etc etc. I have no words.

Someone had a mental diarrhea and vomited this new UI for stations, outfitting, system/galaxy map.

Please, just put Horizons UI back!

 

[fennster]

There's a new UI?

 

[n4p0l3on]

have they even fixed the dim UI issue yet?

 

[GunnerBill]

In an absolute conglomeration of reproductive events.

I literally cannot believe this concept ever passed first review, I can't believe it was approved after alpha and I simply cannot believe that real live people spent time designing this utter and complete assemblage of Biowaste.

Strong words I know but if this becomes permanent and Horizons is phased out then that's me done (played since commercial release).

This is one of the most blatant examples of a whole sequence of actions being buried as many layers deep as possible. It's just beyond comprehension.

An echo of a quote from Space Loach the lead designer of ED way back:
"the docking request will never be a button, it's a PROCESS"
You can see the sentiment echoed here. It's "gameplay".

Also 6 should be: 6..., 6...., 6....

UI is a pure clickfest.
Simply put it's an alteration that has made things more tedious.
How much dev time was wasted on this I wonder?

I find #2 to be the most obnoxious addition. A really pointless stepping stone.

Noooo! Stop! Please stop! I can't take any more!

Not only we have to click 3x more to get anywhere, but we now get 1/3 of the information and can actually accomplish half compared to Horizons!!

Bring Horizons UI back!!!! Start over from there!!

Honestly to me it looks like FD subcontracted to a company whose employees had never used anything but a human thumb as a pointing / selection device and never played anything but mobile games or, just speculating here, a product of nepotism.

That's a larger issue... the whole render pipeline is some combination of unfinished/broken - which is why the lighting is all jacked up everywhere, gamma is screwy, etc

 

[Crank Larson]

Ah yes, I tried a few missions the other day. The new UI is nuts, and full of bugs. Yay for FD.

It drops you back to the main mission menu every time you complete the delivery. Let's add another five unnecessary clicks to each mission...

 

[Lone_star]

The funny thing is - the Horizon's UI already wasn't the world's best designed or most efficient UI (Why isn't there a load all for mission commodities? A hotkey for docking clearance? A Hotkey for supercruise assist? etc etc etc etc)... .but this is SO MUCH WORSE

So, where the screen that offers you time savers for Arx, and the timer when you can click next?

I rather suspect it was subcontracted to someone whose employees had not yet removed their thumb from their mouth on a consistent basis.

There was absolutely no thought given to UX in this new UI design. "What does this button do and why is the user clicking on it" was absolutely nowhere in the thought process when the interactions were being designed.

It's astoundingly bad. I click my mouse button fewer times fighting entire CZs than I do trying to navigate through this very convoluted and time-wasting UI.

And I would wager those clicks are more satisfying then fighting the menu, too

Our Wingmate had to fly back to the station 3 times, because he managed to swap sell something instead buying it every time. DSS, Fuel Scoop, ...
