It's... bad, but it's not as dreadful as people are making it out to be. If they hadn't half-assed it and made everything match and actually tested how the text would look it wouldn't be so bad.

I like it except for the ugly font colours. They should find a colour that works better with it but it makes the game in general look more friendly and playful so I like it.

edit:
I played with it a bit more. I also think they should make the rest of the menus (ex: shop, profile, friends) look similar so it matches and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. It looks and feels weird switching between two different interface stuff when I click on the shop menu or something.

Guys Celeius said there's a way to remove the interface. So don't get all upset about it just yet. (the quote didn't work because it's the main post, so I just wrote it out)

Worst UI I have ever seen.

The problem is that they must have tested it. This is not a simple variable like the probability of relics in gifts which you change and then restart the game. The ui must have been placed on top and then somebody must have either thought "yeah, this looks great" or even worse "the effort that went into this is more important than how bad it looks now". The devs should know better.

GUYS WHAT ON EARTH IS WRONG WITH YOU THIS IS BEST THING EVER ARRIVED TO TFM SO CALM DOWN !

All yall peeps blind, I like it a lot more than the boring old square grey theme. This really stylizes the game and I love it asthetically. Still, I agree there should be an option to disable it for all those people who hate all things new.

That's your opinion which you are free to voice here, just like anyone else regardless of whether they have the same opinion as you.

That's pretty much my fear is that it's the latter, and now we're stuck with an eyesore of a UI that they're too proud to do away with...

I was hoping that we would have had an admin comment on this by now though.

I have a few points to make.

One, a means of activating and deactivating the new UI should be made available. I think the majority of us will agree on that point.

Secondly, perhaps to go as far as to create a customisable interface would be a nice cosmetic feature.

And finally, I have noticed the "Shift+Enter" function, which extends the chat box further actually shows the default colouring for the extended portion of the box. I don't know how many other people have experienced or noticed this, I know that multiple people have. I just thought that should be something to go on the agenda.

nailed it

The way it is currently, I don't like it.

However; it has potential - if the brown gets darkened (preferably almost looking like a dark grey) making the text easier to read and the text color changing accordingly. I also agree on making the switch on and off option with the UI.

I really dislike it. It stands out way more than the map, which is bad.

My dearest Tigrounette!

Please give me the blue background back! Simplicity is often best you know ;) And while you are working on this, can you please remove the snowballs too?

I really like the theme, the old theme was much uglier imo because it was just plain.. Also if it hurts your eyes I suggest downloading "f.lux", a program that automatically adjusts it's brightness depending on what time of day it is. Give the theme a bit of time and you may learn to like it.

As me, and many of peeps who have been around for thousands of years *4*, i enjoyed having the original interface, nothing wrong with the new one, I'm just really used to the old one, it would be nice to have a theme change, say about 4 different interfaces to change to match the persons personal feelings, it's to express our personal individuality, everyone is doing it! I don't know if someone already stated that, but I'm too lazy to go read all of them.

I don't really mind the UI too much now that I've gotten to play with it. The only thing that really bothers me (besides all the issues) is that the colors of the text in chat seem really off, I feel like if those were changed to fit the design better it would look much nicer.

I don't like this UI that because my eyes hurts may be cause from this color and background but this I like old it.

I'd like to see it be converted back to the old UI in minimalist mode because in minimalist mode the old UI would match. Personally not my cup of tea, and not others' either as it seems.
