there's enough empty space in the top screen to have small AP totals for the enemy in view at all times while changing nothing else.

they aren't even that big to begin with. stick them above the health bars and used colored text instead of having the tile below them. nothing else is there, and you could just use the same exact size numbers that you currently have to scroll to see. Just literally move their location and change the color from white to whatever color the tile is.

the only people that this would not benefit is someone who is color blind, but this type of person has been dealing with this their whole life and is smart enough to find workarounds. you'd need a setting in the Settings panel that changes all of the colored text to white. if they can see the health totals, they'll be able to see that

It's a roygbiv color order already. people can remember the order red, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, tu.

as soon as this is done, the crazy **** conspirists will stop saying that the AI can use Sunder with three yellow

    if this doesn't happen in a month, I'm going to challenge iceIX to the ice bucket challenge for a future date of PAX 2015 and make sure he does it.

    met him last year. Great guy. Didn't say who I was, though (not like he would know)

    haven't tried this on the tablet, they won't make a Kindle Fire version for some reason

    does it suck?

    The fisher price UI on my old ipad2 really blows. They have the existing artwork for a landscape mode in the steam version - make it happen already.

    Seriously, why is this constantly ignored?

    Nothing says youre' behind the times like a game that is incapable of landscape mode.

    I'm surprised you guys would want these two awesome UI improvements rather than have Beast. Beast is Beast...he's like the 210th most bestiest x-men evs.

    And Sentry is soooo cheating. I swear.

    IceIX showed aprototype new user interface like 7 months ago and we haven't heard anything since

    my method should be much easier to pull off
  • A thousand times this. I am so sick of swiping to see how much AI the other team has. Frankly right now I am subconsciously memorizing how much AP they got. But it's a mental drain.
    Steam players don't know the struggle. But it's real.

    Geez, just wiped because the AI surprise Unibeamed me. Do the devs have any inkling how annoying and out of the way it is to actually check what their team up is? It's literally insane.
