    It's very hard to use on iPod touch 4th gen. I can't even move... Skills tiny hard to hit. Keep accidentally bumping close skills to....

    Playing on an iPad 2 here.

    Make the interface smaller. More compact. The buttons are enormous. The text is enormous. The joystick is enormous. Having the option set to show guilds has now gone from a timesaver to a crippling disability. It's ridiculously difficult to tell what's going on, especially with a decent sized party and their names bobbing everywhere.

    The interface has gone from taking up a reasonable section of the screen, to being pretty much the only thing on the screen. It would be nice to see my character. Even nicer to see the monsters I'm attacking. It could have been smaller before. At twice the size, it is far too large.

    Also, design nitpicks. Buttons running directly up to the edges of the screen? A minimap which used to fit perfectly and hasn't actually gotten bigger now needing to be scrolled? Icons and art stretched so badly they still look pixelated from across the room?

    There is one thing which I do very much appreciate, and that is the ability to scroll using swiping, rather than hitting arrow keys. One small step forward, many large ones back, unfortunately. I'll still play, but I won't be buying any more platinum until the interface is made less of a hassle. It was a beautiful game you had here, especially considering the limitations. Now it's...

    ...oh wait, I can still see a bit peeking out somewhere.

    I agree with most of the specifics of these posts, and in general I'd say, "Reverse this update." Keep the swiping through lists, and eliminate everything else except the new content. You messed up the UI badly, and no one asked for that to happen.

    It seems like the UI is switched around, where the ui for iPad looks like iPhone and the one on iPhone looks like iPad UI

    iPad UI needs a serious change. The screen is far too large and so are the skills, can't even play properly.

    Hey Sam! Just thought I might give the feedback and bugs that I'm finding. I love the content, but once the bugs are fixed it'll be better. Here's what's going on with me and hopefully I can sum it up.

    -Overall, lag is constantly caused with the new interface. I averaged about 100 ping before Humania, now I average anywhere from 350-1020.
    -Constantly there's a pop up window that says "1 of your friends are logged on"
    -The Angel Sets not coming (of course it's being fixed from the latest announcement)
    -The skill buttons (as well as various other pages/buttons) sizes are too large for Ipad (runs over 'go to next level' sign), I haven't tried it on the Ipod or Iphone yet, but I've heard they're either too small or missing a skill.
    -Whenever the game is updated, it causes players to disconnect 1-3 times and then the sign pops up in game saying, "5 minutes: A quick update!"
    -The new chat text color is sweet, but the letters are a bit too large to actually fit in to the box.
    -Players usernames are too large in general when you see them in towne or in a game.
    -Crafted sets from 65 sets don't sparkle :P
    -I have over 20k pvp kills and over 10k CTF kills. The numbers don't fit on the page, it looks as if I have 2 billion PvP kills.
    -You can't use the 'Q' and 'E' keys using chrome for PL to scroll the screen around.
    -For the Achievement where you have to fill up your inventory and then buy more slots, this isn't possible for players who have bought all 500 inventory slots. (I may be doing something wrong.)
    -Trouble scrolling through the CS.
    -Issues with PvP (Killing yourself as Kanital posted) as well at CTF that has been tested from our guild.
    -When you use the Ice Talon, the image of the talon in air stays still leaving 'talion spam' all over the room.

    I can edit this post as I found more bugs, but thought I might as well bring the feedback in one post that I can find.

    Overall, I say bring the old UI back. This is coming from a player who's experienced the game from nearly the first week of PL. I've been able to cope with many updates (updated including the Global cool down, that was tough) but I feel players will have trouble getting used to this. As always, I know you guys will fix these problems like you always do.

    Also, I think people continue to flame in game and rage due to what's happening. Most don't realize that the forums are here; I think the forums should be emphasized more so players can check what's going on.

    I doubt this is a bug. Clearly you are an epic monster of the arena!


    As for the UI, I like the look on android and most things are working ok. I would prefer not to have so many things popping up when I'm in a run though. New friend requests are fine, since I often make new friends on runs, but I don't need to be reminded at regular intervals that I have friend requests from town to manage at. (idk if this is a UI issue or not)

    Are you kidding me? Graphics on my phone are worse than a free 2D game.

    Plainly lots of things that didn't need to be changed got changed for the worse.
