UI suggestions and chat

  1. The chat mode changes whenever you move map, it should stay the same as the one you chose.

2.Chat box should not close.
3. Typing then going back to battle is troublesome. After [enter] it should go back to combat, not double [enter]
4. The client window cannot be moved after launching? Should be draggable
5. Cannot link name of an item even if it’s less than 150 characters. (ie. +5 superior flamberge)
6. There could be a settings menu for the chat box (enable minimal chat without bubble or heads, keep chat box open, etc)
7. There should be a Reset Filters button when using marketplace
8. “B” doesnt appear to be used. This is a better button than Insert for rest mode, same for other functions since some of us use minimal keyboards (ie. Apple keyboard)

I agree with all of the above. Espeically the 3rd part.

The first point was pretty troubling, because I would miss party messages, and no one would see them either, because everyone gets put back in the all-chat tab. Agree with the rest.

The third one needs to be implemented. haha but all of them are good ideas.

As far as # 2 goes, I actually like being able to turn it off. The UI is kind of large and and I like to see more of the environment.

#3 so much >_<

Agree with you, and there should be a default setting for chat system. Every time you sign-in or change the character, I had to drag the chatbox form above the chatbox. Kinda annoying.

Agreed, this needs more attention. It’s 2015 why is the UI from TOS seem like it’s worst than MMOs from 10 years ago.

the gap between your avatar panel and your pt’s panel also quite big… making me uncomfortable (human nature XD)

I’d add this: it is not possible to move the cursor with arrow keys, you end up moving the character instead. You have to delete everything you typed in just to correct one simple typo for example. That’s just bad usability.

i agree with 1, 3 and 4. especially with the 3. but the second one don’t have problems in my opinion, just make more difficult to hide the chat (like F10 on Rag)

Not sure if it’s just me or what but I’ve been having troubles sometimes choosing chat type since it keeps changing to shout from normal and so on T_T

I would also like the removal of speech bubbles in the chat box. Our characters are already utilizing speech bubbles in the game, it’s not necessary to have them in the chat box as well. Plus, with the speech bubble layout of the chatbox, it’s hard to tell which are party chats or whispers unless you click on the individual filter tabs. But if you use the filter tabs, you miss out on other chats as well so it’s hard to track them in the All tab.

Just have the pure text in the chat box and color code them accordingly. So far there’s just public chat, party chat, whispers, announcements, and system messages in the chat box so that’s just 5 colors to pick for each kind of chat.

i think they trying make it colourful/more likable/unique instead of plain texts with colours but hey, anything goes~
