[QUOTE="John R. Martin, post: 242919, member: 4457"] I thought I would save my comments until I played more than a couple of tables with the new UI, and now that I have, I can safely say that this UI has hurt the game MORE than it helps. Yes, some of the sort options are nice, and it is cool to see the tables by year and such, but since the new UI was pushed, my scoring has been around 1/3 to 1/2 of what it was with the old layout. Just some observations that I have seen so far that should be addressed: 1.) The background music, although a good song in its own right, (Pinball Wizard is actually one of my fav. Who songs), does get annoying after a while. 2.) In Gorgar, the scores do not fit the layout on the table, and are not centered in their respective boxes 3.) Monster's Ball, the muti-ball camera locks on the flippers during the Monsters of Rock, thus making that feature hard, if not impossible to control. 4.) Overall game play seems to have taken a hit with the update, with delays in reaction to button presses in the game. 5.) When choosing the number of players in a game, entering initials during high score posts, and other menus, using the Enter key has no effect, which you could do in the older UI. These are just a few of the issues that I have seen with this new layout. Oh, and my current version is 1.50.12 (Steam version) [/QUOTE]
