Actually they already mentioned there will be new stuff.
The double split chat box that I mentioned, but also PT/Alliance TP/MP data (that you can already see if you use Windower or similar tools).
Going by these lines, I was just wondering if there will be more or not.


It can't give us new info (e.g. show us stats that aren't shown now) because it wouldn't be fair to xbox/ps2 who cant use the new UI.
This is the way they wanted us to believe for the past 10 years, but it's a way of reasoning that has serious flaws, and they're the first who started to acknowledge that by starting to work on a new UI.

Being able to play at 1920x1080 instead of 540xXXX (PS2) is already an "unfair" difference if you want to see things that way.
If you consider these things unfair, then there are many already, some of which are way bigger than being able to see your Ranged attack would be.
Because seriously, how really "unfair" would that be? How big of an advantage would it create compared to PS2 users?

This just isn't the correct way to see things, because the next step would be to consider unfair the fact that some PC users can load zones faster thanks to SSD hard disks, better cable connections etc.
Let's just make everyone play at 800x600 with bad textures because otherwise that would be unfair towards people who still play with a 2004 PC with Windows 98 installed on it.


The "unfair" thing was just an excuse, plain and simple.
