I guess everyone working there has same computer same monitor. Its a bad way to develop a game. The font in the interface and in game is squished and hard to read. the chat during the game for general is basically illegible. The interface in game is clearly using same font. Maybe you should publish what resolution your game is actually legible at.

Really dislike the new font. It is inconsistent in its look at various places in game. Often times difficult or hard to read.

Thanks for tip, actually it looks pretty close to the way it did before after using Alt+Enter

I like the new font on the drop screen. And when not squished together on the mech tabs, the font on the main screen looks okay.

Yay! I found something good about UI 2.blow!

The font ingame looks unusual at 1920x1200, I would guess it's being stretched from 1920x1080 rather than drawn at the actual resolution. It didn't look like that before. It's a little harder to read (and it's more jagged, even with AA on).

1920x1200 here too

font is literally giving me a headache, cant play long

Same resolution, same conclusion. The font does not look good at 1920x1200.

That said, I'm kinda surprised so many other people run at that resolution... I love it, and ive kept an old monitor around to keep it, but the vast majority of monitors these days are at 16:9 these days ( unfortunately ).

When monitors have been using the same standard for HD for the past ~5 years, it's not that surprising people don't upgrade. often.

Professional/Business oriented monitors pretty exclusively remain 16:10, vertical space is useful. But it's definitely dying out. 2560x1440 is so much cheaper than 2560x1600 it's not funny, and nobody's even talking about 4K 16:10, it's all 4K 16:9 or "super wide" 21:9 these day.

My fonts look great at 1920x1080..but the game doesn't run great at that when things get hairy. Moving it to any other resolution makes font very fuzzy and jagged.

sad. because vertical matters
