Thread: New Implant Icons

  1. #1

    New Implant Icons

    All of the empty implants, sold in the shops, now all have new icons but when you combine the implants with a cluster the resulting implant has the old icons.

    This is most definitely going to be confusing to new players.

    With the onset of awakened beast armor, we can now equip Alpha chest on Atrox Soldiers & Alpha Brain on Atrox Doctors.

    Realistically it will be more confusing to older players, since the base icons have changed (for no apparent reason that I can tell, the old icons did their job just fine, don't fix what ain't broke). Current icons already change between empty and tradeskilled.

    I have this same issue with attack specials. I play a shade and since the Sneak Attack icon has changed so dramatically, as I am slamming down my perks I keep forgetting to press Sneak Attack... I kind of miss the old icon.

    The new icons do not fulfill there purpose, they are unclear, difficult to see and harder to distinguish ready/cooling down, icons should be treated the same as those found in cars, they should be clear and distinctive. The new ones are not, they are a design fail.

    Yeah, to illustrate the point of how bad the new icons are... I opened the implant vendor and put it in icon (as opposed to list) mode. I then looked at each icon and tried to figure out what body part it represented (did this along with a friend on TS). I think I guessed maybe 3 parts correctly, he did slightly better (maybe 5 or 6).
