the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

Is anyone else upset with the amount of builds Anet realeses?

Btw, if you didnt notice they updated the interface a bit, it kinda looks a little more like windows vista, and the loading screen isnt too bad but i miss the old loading screen already! lol And what is with the big party member add button. And also
the splice in music, has anyone experenced the music change for a sec to some weird mushc and then go back?

I think it looks better... But I don't notice anything different with the music, yet.

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

The new update isn't too bad. The loading screens are nice as well. As for the music, I haven't really paid attention.

They may release one too many updates sometimes, but alot of them are for a good reason (mainly if they actually list what the update was, unlike a few days ago...)

So, you would prefer that they not fix anything at all?

Or mabye you'd like bigger patches every once in a while. Ever downloaded a WoW patch? Good try! GGs! thx for coming out!

Most companies don't touch games after the intial bugs are fixed. These guys add content and continue fixing new bugs FOR FREE! Enough, with the whiny brat syndrome!

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

Im not sayin i hae it or dont really like it its just that, i been used to the older stuff lol, when i started playing it looked like the picture below which is a bit different then todays interface.

Note though, The warrior in the pict is Dijinn Slayer..and hes not in the same guild, this is an old pict, dijinn is gone because his name was spelled wrong...March-20-06

When i first started playing (i liked this better):
BTW when i first started playing i was the biggest noobiest of all noobs around....haha...i remember that exact night i was playing i took this pic and had no idea wtf any of those skills did or how they could be better, i didnt even know there was a postearing, let alone i didnt even know that anything other then ascalon city and ashfordabbey existed! LOL

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

With all these news updates my poor computer is having a rough time loading the areas. It's taking it a much longer time to load anything then it use to. =(

I'm not really liking the color changes, the health bar shadows and what not...

I 'heard' that using your emotes changes the music. Haven't verified that yet.

I like the new stuff.

But yeah, I'm pretty sure when you do a repeating emote the music changes.

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

Didnt like it at first, dont mind now , but i still dont like the dark green on the experience bar .

I get the feeling one of there developers has too much time on his hands at home and decides to frequently change the interface.

I have noticed a lot more glitches since the update eg last night i tried to close the program and it froze which it never does ,
and this morning my brother got killed by an avicara( hes noob level 13 ) and he went into wire frame graphics for a few minutes.

I like the new graphics. It's just that when I load pvp arenas I take a long time then my teammates leave >_<

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

I think the new graphics are pretty neat, but I don't like the new organization of the options menu. The big bronze bar at the top of the loading screen was ugly and I'm glad they changed that. Maybe if they added a way to change interface design settings...

I havnt listened to the music, simply because I'd rather listen to my music. Personally I like the new look, The colors are more in depth I guess you could say?

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

I quite like the changes. They took a bit of getting used to at first, but I prefer them more than the original. Except for the vastly supersized Add to Party button. It not takes up almost a quarter of the width of my Party List...

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

i like it, i think its pretty slick

i run as a mesmer most of the time and have had no issues interrupting.. its the same thing on screen, just more color dpeth. the reason youve likely had issues is a bit of lag from all the downloads

and generally speaking, trust me, do not complain about a company that updates its game regularly... i came into GW from the novalogic world of games and it took an act of congress to get them to patch... you dont want to know what thats like.. trust me, this is far better

Example being BF2, holy hell you guys have no clue what its like to not get an update for months, and when one comes out, it totally bugs something else. The game has been out for over a year now and still has more bugs than the Rain Forest. Anyone who says Anet doesnt back its customers, go on over to the forums for EA games for BF2, or for Infinity Ward for CoD2. Loads of problems 10000x worse than GW.

I'm not too impressed with the change.....two of my black-haired characters have suddenly become straw-blonde, and the black on my cape has become a dull grey...

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

i think they should make it possible to switch back to the old one, i dont like this one makes it to "busy" and the skill "activation" bar is very confusing to interupt = (

my chars hair is fine, he is male, but some of the other guildies were saying their fem. war hair had changed... no doubt anet will fix it.

as for the new update, i like it. it adds a little more visual depth for me, a little flair. i'm glad anet updates all the time, these guys know how to do it right...

I like the new design. I dont know about interupts being more difficult, havent tried that yet, but I'm sure its just a case of readjusting yourself to the new look. In next to no time you will be interupting just as well as you always did.

Yea i love the new look makes evry thing look smoother. the shadows on the energy and hp bars looks better and i like having a bigger add memeber button, better thn tht tiny little circle thing imo.

yea one thing is has anyone noticed tht ur chars are shown w/o their helmets on at the sign in screen. thts starting to seriously bug me.

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

Matter of taste.
I think the skill loading bar needs a bit of work still, doesn't seem to appear on short casting time spells for example.
And that rainbow colour change thing... An attempt at making casting more obvious maybe, using peripheral vision, if you know what I mean.

Something I really miss though is the option to get the original Prophecies login screen... That tune got me rolling for so long...

BRabbit, the lack of helm is a minor bug I think, log in with the character, log out, back to normal (worked for me at least).

They are supposed to be at what you left them in game, example is if you left it "hide always" then it wont show up on the logon screen anymore.

They never appear (for yourself) for spells with a casting time of less than 2 seconds.

RE: the *slightly* new interface/menu layouts/ music 

the only thing that bugs me is the fact that I can't use cap sig any more, oh well, thats prbably just a minor bug and will get fixed soon. Though I like the new hud.
