    Absolutely. This needs to be changed back. Or at least given the option to choose between the 2!

    Saying that it's for 1280x720 is just a really bad cop out.



    As you can see it fits fine, and it's not even reduced to 60% it's size. Considering you can move it anywhere and make it smaller pretty much just shows that they were being lazy when it came to "redesigning" the micro menu.

    I generally play on 1920x1080, but I changed my resolution to see if it really would be a limitation, but got the results I expected.

    The idea is that I can have my hotbars free and still have direct access to all those buttons.

    It's a bad change because it was never broken. It would have been far better to provide an option to switch into the current "minimal" look.

    I want the old menu back. Even if you can bind them to your skillbars, those are already used for my macros, food and stuff.

    SO many clicks just to do one thing when it took 1/2 the amount required with the old menu.

    Please allow us to choose what we have down on our micro menu by a tick the box kinda mechanic with it having it's own tab in customisation.

    Completey agree. The reduced number of micro menu buttons made it more difficult for me as I had expected these not to change drastically.

    Greetings,

    Below is a comment from Hiroshi Minagawa in regards to the change of the main menu.

If it were the original 2 row horizontal layout, it wouldn’t fit on 1280x720 screens.

    When the development team has the bandwidth, we can add a config option for selecting the original type of layout, but it’s really going to eat up a lot of screen real estate as the commands increase, so we decided to limit it to just this layout in this patch and prioritize other UI features.

    *Note:
    You can now shrink the size of the hotbar to 60% size and this size would be the same size as that of the original main menu.

    I cringe and die a little inside whenever management uses 'management words' like "Bandwidth"

    Lol, good stuff.

    Anyways, I've always been a hotkey kind of player. I never really touched the 'micro menu', so this change shouldn't affect me much.. but what really bothers me is to hear SE's developers constantly come out and say they can't add more options because of: "limitation" this and "limitation" that. *sigh*

    It's always something due to their lame game engine. What a piece of junk.

    It's my screen, not yours. I prefer to have 3 rows of icons if need be.
