 I think the MP bar should be darker, the contrast between the number and bar makes misreading the number fairly easy.

I kinda miss the old user interface already . I wish there was an option to switch back and forth. Oh well....this new one is going to take some time for me to get use to.

The update concerning the user interface is... well, a little too flashy for my liking. The gold texture can become a bit of an eyesore whilst staring at your HP/MP ratio for long periods of time, and the overall, bright contrast doesn't correlate very well with the traditional, wooden AQ style; however those are just minor flaws I've discovered whilst battling.

Other than that, it's a pretty decent job; a far fetch from the wooden format that we've had for so long. As many players have suggested, however, I'd like to have the ability to switch the interface between gold and wood to be honest. It would compromise so much more than just one simple colour template.

Adorable!


 Well, the update was more interesting than I thought. Not only our small HUD (Or maybe Heads Down Display in AQ? Does it really apply in AQ from the first place?) was updated, but also the player's info and AQ's logo.
It's interesting to see the staff listened to the players, and combined the golden circle and the wooden background, but with the new scroll and new logo, I feel there are too many types of colors and textures to interact with throughout the game UI.
I don't have the issue that people pointed out so far with the golden part, and the darker wooden background fits much better than the golden shiny background. Yet, the bright bars really bother my eye, especially the extremely bright MP bar.
Also, I wonder if other UI will be updated, such as the more options screen, and as someone pointed out in IRC, the estates interface could use an update as well.
Last, the new interface is really refreshing, and it's really great to see the staff focus on such aspects of the game, I hope to see more similar updates in the future (Thing nobody thought will ever get an update, do get it)

Maybe I'm going crazy but I swear that the shield and misc text and icons are not in line with the armour and weapon ones. And if that is to stop them from falling off the edge of the scroll, I'd suggest just making the scroll a bit wider at the bottom. That indent for the rolled up bit looks cool, but makes it a bit awkward.

I am liking the gold.
But not so keen on the scrolls just because it makes my records a bit messy. The boxes were easy to cut and paste before.
However I do like the overall look of the new interface when playing AQ.

I do really miss knowing when I can run from a monster. Please bring back the SP cost for Fleeing.

You guys need to think about what you want not just go all berserk "omg shinieeee" - every possible offense intended to be honest.

I'm really liking this update, it looks so nice. I was having the same problem with the mana bar being too bright, but then I just turned my computer brightness down and everything was better. The numbers seem fine to me though.

 Kudos to the ones behind the update, although I'd suggest a more shaped glare on the bars:

I don't like how they left the EXP bar largely untouched. I guess they forgot that some players can still see it. :\

I hope the attack menu will get a face lift too sometime in the near future.

The Question
(AdventureQuest)


 The contrast of the colours seem way off. Honestly, the gold is too shiny as it is. Gold-but-not-shiny should suffice. Reason being is that the main text are already white, and with everything else around it also bright in colours, it is hard to see. The update also caused my 640x480 specification to loose some of the game border frame.
