Re: The BF2042 Comm Rose - Why EA, why...

I was pleased to see in the clip how smoothly it seemed to function, whereas the BF1 iteration was always glitchy and sticky for me. BFV's worked well, but this 2042 one appears to have many more sub-icons than just goto A/B/C which will be more useful and suits me. Personally, I'd drop the words entirely and have a tiny icon-only commorose without DoF! (Newcomers could quickly learn the icons from what it dumps in the chat feed.) I guess you cannot please everyone@CyberDyme 🍺
Given cross-platform VOIP seems to be a problem at launch, I expect the commorose will be invaluable this year whatever form it takes!
Hi @DJ_Englishman ,
I personally like info graphics for intl software development, as if done well, it obliterates the needs for localizing all your UI elements to make the software successful in other places of this world.
But why make the screen blurred?
Why make the text blurred and so small its hardly readable?
Why make the color choices blend-in-blend of the same?
Why not make meaningful icons then as the infographics instead of this nonsense EA graphical designers have filled up our vital screen property with?
Only the parachute icon makes any sense here.
And ok, we could learn to live with whatever they chose here to symbolize 'change order' command...
Maybe you can tell me what it is?
EDIT:
Slightly better image quality direct from EA's own Beta Feedback video:
Suggest you look at the video, as it provides better quality vs quality of HD graphic when uploading to this website here...
