I like 2.0 and they will be upgrading it eventually... definitely a step in the right direction! i personally like it

The more I use it the easier it's getting for me to use it. Things that bug with the UI aren't necessarily what 2.0 changed. It's more things I wished 2.0 would have fixed. Such as sending a message or inviting a player to my group. So what if they're currently deployed, or if they're in another group. Send the message and let them view it after they're done with the match or God forbid they get an offer to join a different group...? It's those kind of small things that irritate me. Oh, it's also nice when everyone in the group is readied up, click launch and it says we're not all ready???

Otherwise, the UI has just taken some getting used to.

The ONLY thing I'm interested in seeing fixed AT THIS MOMENT, is the social panel. If I leave someone a message, whether in or out of the game, I want that message there when they pop out of the game. Chat interfaces have been around for a LONG TIME now, and it can't be that hard to go and look at someone else's code, if needs-be, and get that put into the game. If I click on a user's name and then click on Send Message in the resulting menu, that should only be for opening a new window with them and starting a new conversation. On the other hand, if I already have a window open, and I get out of game and have a little mail icon there, I should be able to either double-click on that icon, or open a menu by single-left-clicking on their name to open a side menu, where Send Message is replaced by Join Conversation, or something similar.

You're running an MMOCG, whether you want to admit it, or classify it, or not, PGI, and that means it's a social experience. If your social panel is a piece of garbage -and make no mistake, the current one is NO BETTER than the old one- then the social experience of players -THE MOST IMPORTANT EXPERIENCE OF YOUR PLAYERS IN THE UI- is garbage. If that's the truth, you may as well hang it all up.

FIX THE SOCIAL PANEL!!!

A very pretty step backwards?

More like jump off the cliff.
