just because you need glasses to read, doesnt mean the rest of us should have to sit on the other side of the room from the screen now.

CCP please either allow us to use the old font or ATLEAST shrink the UI WITHOUT shrinking the modules section.

I for one find the new font to be very bad on the eyes.

Im sure the font is fab for certain people
How ever there is enought folk struggling with it that we can but hope CCP might realise the issue and either allow "font" choice or work on it a little.

I do think the premise of the scaling UI and new font to work with it is a good idea!
i just think it fell so short of the required target that it appears rushed.

Aspects of the FONT / UI scale do not work - you can barely read the amount numbers on minerals and the like in hanger
right click contect menus are guess work (* cant wait for them to change the order to make it impossible)

CCP for the game put the old font back and work on the new one till its right. Ugh

The font itself is ok, but the size and the space it takes up in width is just plain stupid. The scanner window now takes 50% of my screen for me to get the needed info. The Overview takes 25% and if i want more windows open, there's no screen left. And that is with 1920x1080!! 90% scaling helps a bit, but it also messes the font up and the different font sizes becomes even more rediculous!

I scaled mine back to 90% and then the regular fonts are fine but then the smaller fonts (right click sub menus) are tiny. Also I noticed that I had 3 separate chat windows open and (besides them moving all over the place) each window had a different font size.

FrenchRaptor Liberty Naval Fleet Likes received: 0	#29 - 2011-11-30 16:56:23 UTC The font is too high. I'm ok with it in the chat, but it makes the rest of the UI look like crap and makes everything seem out of place. UI scaling does just that, scales the ENTIRE UI, so if something is out of place it still looks like crap if it's smaller or larger.

the game should have a drop down menu to select your font, and it would be nice if it would import from your OS so you have a lot of choices.

Scaling to 110% i can read the font, but my windows are too big. 90% my windows are more manageable, but i can't read anything. 100% i can read the font in the windows and Overview, but i cant tell the difference between 0 and 8 on my modules' ammo counter.

...Can't. Tell. If ...Troll? Or Serious....
