Right clicking on vehicles UI is extremely squareshaped, it feels mobile-like, why bother changing that, revert it as the old one is more nice to the eyes. I know it could be irrelevant but that's one concern. The other is cannon shell information, it is all over the place and just revert it back to it's previous UI which is way better and less mobile-like.
Generally what I have seen with these UI changes it's like turning the game into a mobile-port version of it on the iphone and it's becoming more corporate meaning it doesn't look good. I remember when you changed vehicle portraits from historical to mobile 360 potraits, why not give us an option to revert them back?
Give us options, I am sure newer players would enjoy it but after playing 10 years of this game, I recommend you giving us the option to revert it back.

UAV randomly stops orbiting "Reborn"

Originally posted by FizzyElf: So this issue occurred a few years back and seems to have been fixed but now the bug is back. I have seen another player in the forum here necro a thread on the issue voicing some concern and I personally saw it happen to a light tank on the enemy team and to myself today while trying to switch back to my tank.
From what I understand the issue causes the UAV to stop orbiting when you switch views/return to your vehicle, it could be a ping/input issue that's maybe cause the UAV to miss behave but I am not sure.
In anycase this thread is just here in case anyone else runs into the issue and to ensure there is a more recent post on the topic to avoid more evil necromancy:cleandino:

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to write this. It would be really helpful to us if you created a report on this, as I've had a look and don't see any reports from other players, and there is nothing internally either. It might be an isolated case, so a report here with more ... Read more

Hi! Since there were changes to the Battle Ratings of these vehicles, the requirements also reduced automatically. It's likely you had some process on them and then met the requirement since it was reduced. It was given to you after you played one battle even though you didn't play them, as this is what makes them activate and unlock.

Most comments I've seen praise the new sounds, since they sound different from one another instead of all the same. It was like this some years ago. What is it that you don't like about the new sounds exactly? Read more
