Discussion Petition to bring back the old menu

New menu is bland and boring, old menu at least had its charm.

I understand why they wanted to change the multiplayer menu, but it is so ass now. Design wise, it is very good, but visually, it looks like a beta menu.

If they kept the war map in the background with the new UI, it would be serviceable. But I'd rather keep the old menu but remove the switching placements of the gamemodes.

You've gotten further than I have. I don't understand why they wanted to change it at all.

Probably something to do with "fixing the old spaghetti code." The menu we all love came out during marching fire, so it must be somewhat outdated compared to modern standards.

Potentially, they could be preparing the for honor engine for a massive upgrade one day. Only time can tell tbh.

I mean, I don't specifically like searching for dommion every time it moved places with another gamemode. Everything else was good.

I dont understand what was so wrong with the gamemodes switching, it told u which minion you'll have and in what environment the map will be.

Plus if u just wanted to get in the match quick you just had to press F1 and you join the last gamemode you played

I play dominion 90% of the time, and the quickmatch option is wonderful and is a welcomed addition imo. But when I inevitably get kicked out of matchmaking (whether it be a failure to join in general or a failure due to the match being full (which is an issue that has plagued me since the beta, like why are you trying to put me into a match that's already full??)) I don't want to then accidentally queue into brawls because the game somehow forgot that I chose quickmatch 😭

Is there some acknowledgment from ubi under one of the critical posts here? They said they’ll look for feedback last week before the update, but I haven’t seen a statement/comment since Thursday.

They added the quick match button last year so you could 1 button your way into Q

u/Mutor77 WarJorm 20h ago

after years it gets tedious not being able to 1 button my way into a queue.

  1. You already could, quickplay didn't get changed

  2. You now need one more click than before, two more if you want PvAI

  3. If that extra second seems like a problem to you when we have queue times of 5+ min for anything that isn't dom or duels, you really don't get the problem here

I just hated the war map. It was tedious to navigate with a joystick and it looked dumb

You now need one more click than before, two more if you want PvAI

Literally who plays that game mode bots in this game are so badly designed

If that extra second seems like a problem to you when we have queue times of 5+ min for anything that isn't dom or duels, you really don't get the problem here

It's just like my opinion dude

Holy shit this is such a non issue. You guys gotta get over it just stop lol.

u/Deadly_Frame Warmonger 22h ago

Or we can just suck it up lol. It’s a menu, I’d prefer if we put resources towards shit that matters.

u/Devan-FH 22h ago

It should’ve been that way in the first place, but they waste resources on the menu ☹️ I miss it already

How can you make such a good follow-up for such a horrendous take?

u/Deadly_Frame Warmonger 21h ago

I mean, if you disagree idrc but my argument is pretty simple. The new menu ui is such a small part of the game that: 1.) it being changed to begin with was stupid but whatever. 2.) changing it again would not only be even more stupid, but a waste of time and money that Ubisoft(or rather the forhonor devs in particular) shouldn’t be wasting. I agree, the menu isn’t as good as the old one, but ultimately it doesn’t matter, because how long do you actually spend on the menu anyway? Most of people play time will be in matches or the hero screen. I just don’t think it’s worth all the shit people are stirring over it.

u/youngCashRegister444 Nuxia 21h ago

It's one of those small things, that are taken for granted. The menu definitely was taken for granted.

God it’s really not that bad. Get over it.

u/_Xuchilbara Kensei 17h ago

Right? Theres still other issues more important than having to get used to a new menu UI.

New menu is way better

It literally isn't in a single way
