I'm not entirely sure where to post this, but I've got some feedback I want the devs to know. The Marketplace UI is all too big on my pc screen. I have a 27" monitor and when I got it last year, that size was the standard for pc gaming monitors. The images and font on Marketplace is huge. The images of the packs are almost the size of my smartphone and the font is too large. It makes it physically uncomfortable to look at. My monitor is 1440p resolution and I never adjusted the game UI, so this extremely large UI on Marketplace is a stark contrast to what I'm used to. It doesn't make sense why the Marketplade UI is so big and looks like a mobile game layout displayed on a pc screen, when this game isn't even available on mobile and is played on pc and tv screens.
Also the pack selecter is now too large and I have to scroll and scroll to see all my packs. I have about just short of a third of the packs excluding the kits, so it would be much worse if I had more packs. I much preferred the old layout where I could see my packs on the one screen all at the same time. It was much easier to see which packs I had enabled.

Actually, yes! I thought the same thing.

I agree! I find it very annoying that I can basically only see one row of DLC at a time. Because of this, it's rather painful to scroll through my owned DLC or look at the maker packs.

I thought the same thing about pack selection. I have several save files with different packs so I use this feature quite often. I don't really have that many packs, even still, selecting packs is quite hard since the new update. I love pack selection having cover images though. But when it comes to ease of selecting packs and jumping right into game, I like the old one.

Pack Selecter is my main gripe here. I don't intend to use Marketplace other than to claim free stuff, but since Pack Selecter is inside Marketplace, the UI issues are a problem here. I'd have rathered it stay in the game options where it used to be. It doesn't make sense to me why managing my Marketplace downloads are there, but I have to go into Marketplace to manage my other packs bought outside of the game.
I also use Pack Selecter a fair bit. I have my old pc connected to the TV and when I want to clarify whether a feature is base game or from a certain pack when making my videos becuase I want to be accurate, I use Pack Selecter to do so and test. I do it on my old pc so that I don't accidently mess something up for my usual play.

UI is probably optimized for console and TV 4K display.

I find generally that the higher the resolution, the smaller the UI is in comparison to the screen size. In this game the default UI for 1440p is smaller than it was on my previous 1080p monitor, which was smaller than on my previous 720p laptop. Even the computer's homescreen icons are smaller physically, the higher the resolution. In Marketplace the UI doesn't seem to scale down, so when you're on a larger screen the UI is physically bigger. On my brother's 4K TV the pack images will be even bigger than my phone's physical size.

Adding on to my original post which is completely different to this thread. I don't know why it was merged and I was not told it was merged. My feedback was specifically about the UI being too big, which is very different to this one about the quality. Now my feedback will be buried because of this, which I am not happy about. Please undo this change.
But the Pack Selecter looks a mess when there's no internet connection. I had to play offline today due to an issue with my internet protection which has now being resolved, but I took a look at Pack Selecter and it doesn't load the pack images at all which makes the large image size a waste of space. I have included the screenshot I took of it. The old layout was much easier to read.
