UI SIZE and scaling on lower resolutions (1280x1024 in this case)
Is so fukin BIIIGGGG!!! (at least 1/2 bigger like in other HnSlashes)
I play atm in 1280x1024 and it looks terrible. Other games uses scaling well and i dont have fonts in size of fist. Both D2LOD and Titan Quest for example... D2 LOD in 640x480 have (on my screen) UI (globes/icons) and fonts (items/skills) tooltips in size of PoE UI in 1280x1024. TQIT have very good UI size and everything looks much better (not unnaturally big) than in PoE in the same resolution. The big camera zoom and weird wiev angle is bad enough and when you combo this with unnatural big fonts and UI its just.... /bleh. Also... chat covers 1/4 of my screen (i turn it off most the times because game is not playable with global chat on, bacause it reaches middle of the screen and covers my char!! YES! SIC!) Health globes and whole bottom UI can be 33% lower (imho) in my resolution and still will be perfectly visible and playable. So.. my question is: Will i get ability to scale UI and fonts and chat (or will you do scaling beetween resolution properly like other games?) or this is working as intended? Its very important to me. PS. I know that most ppl plays in HD resolution. I have my main Pc with HD monitor too. But atm im forced to play in 1280x1024 for some time and i really want to see this done correcly. Also... PoE is the only game that have that problems (games that i played on this monitor and resolutuion and that dont have problems with size/resolution UI scaling or have manual scale : WoW, RIFT, TSW, D2LOD, TQIT, Batman AC, Firefall, Guild Wars 1/2, Krater Game, etc.. etc... all looks good, not overkill big things covering screen, etc..) PS2. i may provide screens if you want. Last edited by Kabraxis#1526 on Aug 8, 2012, 12:55:12 PM

I swith to windowed mode end i set a 16:9 (or 16:10) resolution.
EVERYTHING LOOKS FAR MORE BETTER NOW. It just looks normal like other games. UI stretch out and everything is smaller and not 2 times bigger as it supopse to be. Now i wnt to achieve that in fullscreen 3:4 resolution (and dont tell me its imposible.. all other games can so PoE can too). It looks like the UI and game have real problems with 3:4 resolutions. I know not many gamers use this king of screens nowadays but i think it a thing to fix anyway. |

I'm hoping they simply allow for UI changes like scaling certain elements. That would be so appreciated.

What monitor screen size do you have? If 19 then I dont understand your complaints - everythings is fine there (Im using 1280x1024 too).

Chat covering 1/2 of your screen width is fine (chat reaches character thst is on center of the screen always)?
Or health/mana globes being twice as big than in Diablo2 in 800x600 is fine? Item tooltips (with fonts on size 20+ apparently) covering half of screen is fine? AYFKM? Make a experiment and look at PoE UI in 1280x1024 and then run for example TQIT and look at UI scale and item tooltips (size and fonts used). And then tell me that "everything is fine". And i tell already, when you switch to windowed and stretch screen to 16:9 format everything scales well (much better) and is FAR smaller and sexier. Its a 4:3 scaling problem. I know that. I just want a conformantion or denial that they are plan to fix this by introducung UI scaling for example. Last edited by Kabraxis#1526 on Aug 15, 2012, 6:44:20 AM

My resolution is 1920x1080, and in my opinion the the UI and the chat font size is much too large. I would like to have the option to reduce the font size and UI by as much as 50%.
Overall, my first impression of the game is very good, keep up the good work. |
