The new friends list is a mess. It arranges info in the least useful ways. This has all the appearance of a half *** job to me. How did the devs look at how the info is arranged, and say this looks good?
I shouldnt have to weed thru all the offline people to see the online.Also show the last online in alphabetical order! How hard is this to do?????????? I shouldnt have to reset to how I want the list presented after every match. Im glad they finally did something about the list, but this is a mess!

Yeah it's a steaming bucket of hot garbage that's for sure.

Dont... please dont tell me its a mess... i have a crap load of people on my friends list...

[Appogee]

Yeah, it needs a column to sort by online/offline status.

(Or make the 'Last Online' column sort that way, so that the onlines and deployeds are at the top.)

The first column also needs a title. It appears to be 'Grouped/Ungrouped'.

I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

This jumping around of names in the list... the not-really-sorting by whatever ctriteria you select... the reset to default view when you change from home screen to FP screen... oh horror! Horror! Horror! Tongue nor heart cannot conceive nor name thee!

Let there be hotfix!

This issue with the friends list better get fixed as fast as the escort bug, though i think it may take as long as the game crash after leaving/merging groups bug.

And the most important future of the friend list doesn't even work.
The refresh button!

[Grus]

Good god... they paid someone to do this? Do they have a waste and abuse hotline?

[_BALDY_]

lol They need to flush the head of the person down the toilet who did this as they must have S****t for brains ......all we wanted was a refresh button and not even that works lol

Why change something that was good or working well?? Why oh why?????????What were you thinking pgi??? Maybe trying your hardest to drive players away?

[Fuerchtenichts]

WHY?

How is it possible even to mess up the friendslist sort feature? Dear PGI, I guess most (if not all) players use the friendslist to identify which of their friends are currently online, so that they can be invited into a group.
You created with this update the possibility to sort the online status. Sadly in works according to this priority

1. Offline
2. Deployed/Online
3. Today
4. Depending on date of last login

In consequence I always have to scroll to come to peer group "2."
What about changing the priority of "Offline" and "Deployed/Online" so that the interesting group can be sorted to the top?

PS: Please notice my effort not to call the responsible dev names.

Typical PGI take something that is actually working, that literally no one has asked to be changed and change it to make it more complicated and even less legible/useful..

.. Proven track record for these guys meanwhile they still ignore countless actual problems seemingly deliberately.

Match maker
Hit reg
Floating shadows
Victor knees were deleted
Victor still has annoying cockpit rock when decelerating
The mad cat mkii is long overdue a NERF
They recently buffed lurms for what like the fith NERF/buff cycle so we're back to lurmageddon
Ppc's still only work when the stars Aline and theres a wolf howling on a ridge somewhere.
The UI is still like cat vomit
You get RSS from just navigating through the menu.
Faction play is dead
Escort mode is still in the game
The direwolf still thinks it's a ballerina
The dragon needs it's old arm back
Geometry clipping on so many mechs like the timber wolf and vulture
Rocket launchers again fail to do any damage at all 85% of the time.
The teir system needs scraping as does PSR
........ The list goes on!
