Possible Renovations to UI

[sixtoes]

Hey guys, I'm not a dev or anything of that nature, but i have beta tested alot of MMO's and ive played alot of MMO's so ive got a little expirence when it comes to UI.

I would like to make some suggestions to make this game even better than it is now, take them if you want, leave them if you dont, but please read them.

1) need for an ability lock. its nice how you can move the UI to how you see fit, but one issue is with the abilities not being able to be locked on the bar which can lead to missing actions in the heat of battle.

2) Commendations turned in at the capitals. is it possible for you guys to streamline it a little. when you have massive amounts of penns to turn in, its a bit taxing to have to grab the quest, turn it in and get your prize. I'd recommend setting it up to where you talk to the guy select the penn amount and he gives you the reward. It wouldnt feel as clunky then for mass rep turn ins.

3) Chat Box. There needs to be more functionality here, such as one click group invites, one click ignore for gold spammers. I hate to say this but, Blizzard Ent. had a problem with gold spammers in World of Warcraft, and they made it to where you can ignore/report a player for harassment/spam just by right clicking (this also includes IM/friend add/group invite) their name in the chat window

4) Support System. I've notice when i have a support issue im tabbed out of game and redirected to a website to submit a trouble issue. Players dont want to be tabbed out, they want to be able to submitt an issue while in transit without having to tab out. I think you would find out about alot more bugs if the support system wasnt so clunky. I have come across alot of graphic/ texture issues as well as NPC buggs that i havent submitted tickets on because of the way its set up. I think the majority of your player base doesnt have an issue helping you beautify the game/fix the game, as long as we dont have to break stride. You guys might not have the support staff to handle the all the issues, but that what wait time is for

5) RTC needs to be included ingame (real time clock/ server time)

6) The ability to mail DB from character to character. Not so much items because that would negate the freetraders

7) some sort of notepad ability - comes really in handy for crafting ect.

8) the ability to share quests provided you are on the same segment of the quest line

9) Simplified PVP/Conquest/Map layout. Port info for unrest ect should be accessible by just clicking the port in your world map, not by scrolling up and down and it glitching out and moving you off of what your looking at. in other words give us a window that we have to close that displays all info about the port, unrest, resources ect.

This game has a great foundation. I would encourage you devs to take what the player base says and try to implement it. A good solid non-clunky UI will keep people around for a long time and as we know that means money.
