SK ANNIVERSARY

Wow, apart from it looking hideous, not being able to see your friends health, and having the screen cluttered with health bars, seeing the monsters health will be great because you can see how effective other peoples weapons are. That's the only exciting thing.

Well, I'm pretty sure that you'll be able to see your allies' health; this player appears to be playing solo. You'll probably also be able to turn off the enemy health bars, I'm sure that they realize they'll just get in the way in places where they used massive numbers of mobs to up the difficulty.

Upon further inspection, I noticed two other things: one, the full health bars may be visible, meaning that we'll be able to see allies' health above 20 points; two, the minimap shows where enemies are.

Nick confirmed that you would be able to see party member's health. I think it looks pretty nice. Labeling the hotkeys on the map should help, I can never seem to remember what button to press to pull a menu, and tend to resort to pressing all the keys till the window I want shows up. Health bars should be interesting.

I've got a feeling this is going to cause my computer some pain.

We better be able to like hide those insanely huge health/information bars . _ .

or else Slenderman will like freaking appear next to me on a relaxing snarby run . - .
just sayin'.....

So someone loaded up the test client and found this:

It's also Children's Day in the Republic of China, Independence Day in Senegal, the International Day for Landmine Awareness and Assistance internationally, Peace Day in Angola, the day that an earthquake killed 20,000 people in India in 1908 and the day that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization was founded in 1949.

On a completely unrelated note, Wikipedia is pretty neat.

My computer is having seizures already.

So the UI update is here. Here's a summary:

• Health bars over things that you kill. No more wondering how many more hits that thing will take.
  
• New shield bar. No more wondering how much health your shield has despite the fact that it takes 0 seconds to bring up.
  
• New health bar that is actually a bar and does not round to the nearest half-pip. No more... wasting hearts, I guess.
  
• New scrollbar for chat. No more clicking five million times to find out what you missed while AFK.
  
• Weapon wheel that gets in the way whenever you switch weapons.
  
• Screenshake when you get hit.
  
• Crowns are only visible on the energy depot and arsenal.
  
• Energy only visible when certain windows are open.
  
• None of this is configurable.

Additionally, devilites have been nerfed, though not sure by how much yet. The Caketastrophe mission is allegedly unchanged from the 2012 anniversary.

my biggest complaints would have to be the lack of configuration available, and while it can be annoying having to show off you crowns and energy in screenshots if your poor/rich; you can just pull a Val and blot it out. I'd much rather choose that than have to rummage around to see my energy or crowns.

then the weapon wheel. omg the weapon wheel.

Well devilites have less range and there attacks move slower they also dodge less frequently.

Oh good. I dont have to be alert 25/8 to live around those things?
yes, 25/8

I just did a mission with devilites and it also seems there attack rate has went down and they also seem easy now in my opinion. (never thought I would say that)

what?
Devilites EASY?

did they forget their coffee?

So someone with too much time on their hands redesigned the old UI.

10/10.

^ Looks nice to me.
