It's okay to like the new HUD. I haven't seen a single person complain about anybody who likes the new hud, but for those of us who don't like the new hud should have the option to use the old hud. That's why we're upset. Nobody is angry at you, stop acting like you're being oppressed.
Vistha Kai4 votesHonestly? I don't even give a fuck about how it looks like from the art standpoint. (Except the minimap being 50 shades of brown.)
It's the fact they totally mutilated information distribution on the screen. You simply DON'T do that. Ever.
LegacyDAP2 votesIt's not even that. From what I've heard other people find it easier to read, because it's all in one place, but for somebody who's like me who looks all over the screen to figure out the information, and where it didn't hurt my eyes. I liked it like that the old way, it was much easier for me.
Vistha Kai2 votesYeah, but even something like enemy tab when you click on them.
The hell was the reason to switch items, health, mana with other stats like AD, AP, etc? I mean other than "Because I can".
Like items being between skill set and minimap?
I already had a fucked up teamfight because I thought 
was off-cooldown 
.
LegacyDAP1 votesThey probably ran out of new things to make, and instead of fixing the problems we have now. They decided that we'd like a new HUD instead.
Shénzhì4 votesControversy? .... it's fine except i have to squint when trinket is on cooldown because i cant see what trink i have loll
EffectFX1 votesWe're acting like we're being oppressed?
LegacyDAP3 votesRead that if you want, but some people apparently think if they like the new hud we'll gang up on them. What I'm upset about is the people feel like we shouldn't have our old hud, and that we should just get used to the new one. I'm sorry but I prefer not having my retinas burned out.
EffectFX1 votesUhhh I literally don't see that at all, I see the OP essentially joking but that's it. Also don't sit right next to the screen, sit a little back and don't play in a completely dark room, I promise your retinas won't burn out.
LegacyDAP2 votes"And when they also think throwing a giant uproar is going to fix it because, "The majority is complaining about it." The complainers are always the loudest. And they'll attack almost anyone that disagrees"
That is literally from the top comment.
The color does hurt my eyes. It's bright. Many other people have the same complaints. Dark room or not it does hurt my eyes.
What's the problem with having the old one that didn't hurt my eyes? I honestly don't know why they couldn't have let you switch back to the old one, and choose. Please answer the question.
EffectFX1 votesAnd when they also think throwing a giant uproar is going to fix it because
Not even close to accuse people of attacking them
The majority is complaining about it.
A vocal minority at best.
The complainers are always the loudest. And they'll attack almost anyone that disagrees"
THE ONLY thing in the entire thread that suggests "ganging up". But by attack he means downvotes and then some childish hateful messages, which is hardly unlikely. I think you really overestimate the average intelligence of some of Leagues more vocal community. Being hateful is pretty much the norm.
I can't even tell the difference between the colors of the new HUD, all the same to me. I also don't know, nor care about why you can't switch back and forth. I'm in the "I don't really care" crowd of people which is probably the largest.
LegacyDAP2 votesWell for the people that do care they should have an option and/or choice to switch between the HUDs. This is what I mean. You think because only a couple of people want it that it shouldn't be implemented, and since you're fine who cares about the people complaining.
EffectFX1 votesYou think because only a couple of people want it that it shouldn't be implemented,
Ummm...
I'm in the "I don't really care" crowd of people
I would also say that more then a couple people want it AND that the large majority of people don't give a fuck.
LegacyDAP2 votesFirst I want the statistics on the minority, because the minority could honestly be
50% Don't care 26% like it 24% don't like it
Therefore still a large amount of the community doesn't like it, so until you actually bring some statistics on the minority (real statistics) then you can't really use the idea "You're the minority, and you shouldn't be helped, because the majority doesn't care."
EffectFX1 votesUntil we see people in the millions complaining about it, it's a minority. Not voicing your opinion isn't far off from giving your approval (a concept when talking about people not voting in the elections).
LegacyDAP3 votesOn your logic technically the people who like it is a minority considering I see far more complaining about it than I do praising it.
EffectFX1 votesNot voicing your opinion is the same as supporting the decision.
LegacyDAP1 votesWut...?
For real?
Let me just turn that logic against you.
Not voicing your opinion means you obviously think that you should be able to choose the old HUD, because we don't know what their opinion is, so we'll just assume they want to support my cause. NO.
EffectFX1 votesActually that's not how it works. It's a concept commonly seen in voting. Where not voting is seen as supporting the winner of an election regardless of your personal stance on the matter. Not sure if it has an official name but it does exist.
Simply changing "voting" to "voicing your opinion" and you can apply it to League. The boards exist and aren't hidden in the slightest, reddit is also a very popular platform that Riot uses just as frequently if not more so then the boards. Yet while we're seeing a "relatively" large number of people get on the boards, it's not like there's enormous outcry rippling through the community.
Keep in mind I am NEUTRAL on the whole HUD thing, I don't particularly care if the old one comes back or not.
LegacyDAP2 votesEffectFX1 votes486 out of SEVERAL MILLION PLAYERS. Yes. That's a minority.
Vistha Kai3 votesAnd how many of those millions of players know or care about boards?
EffectFX1 votesMost probably know about the boards. Most just don't care. Just like most don't care enough about the new HUD to come and complain.
LegacyDAP2 votesIt's not about complaining about the new HUD. It's about complaining that we can't get the old HUD.
EffectFX1 votesPlenty of people are complaining about the specifically about the new HUD.
LegacyDAP1 votesI bet they would stop complaining if we got to choose to use the old HUD, because that's the primary reason they're complaining about the new HUD in the first place. I'm sure a small minority dislikes both, but it's most likely a very small minority considering I have not seen the discussion pop up yet.
Vistha Kai2 votesAs for the HUD, they should just put shit where it should be (e.g. items and ally portraits on the left, CS and KDA in the top right corner, etc) and fix the "50 Shades of Brown" minimap.
Art as is doesn't really all that matter. It's just they completely screw information distribution "for our own good".
EffectFX1 votesMaybe.
Vistha Kai3 votesIn every average country that, for example, chooses a goverment only voices of those who vote matter.
If majority LoL players don't care to voice their opinions, it's their right, but when you tell me a thread with 400 or so upvotes doesn't matter...
The highest upvotes thread right now is at like 2000... after a year or so being on the boards. This here with 400 got them over 2 days.
EffectFX1 votesLegacyDAP2 votesYou have to take in account of how many people actually visit the boards in 2 days, and how everybody gets a vote. I'm sure more people who don't use the boards also don't like the HUD, but just don't use the boards.
EffectFX1 votesThis may be a shocker to you, but most people don't care about the boards. More people visit the League reddit instead of the boards probably
LegacyDAP2 votesIt's not a shocker. I know a lot of people don't use the boards, but I'm still saying there could be a lot more people who don't use anything, but don't like it.
Meep Man1 votesWhat I dont get is how you guys had ALL this time to look at the new HUD from the blogs and say "Hey I dont like that", but instead you sat and said nothing. It comes live and, after about 2 months of warning, you complain. SPEAK UP!
LegacyDAP1 votesI don't have a PBE, not only that I was never able to see it in action. A lot of the PBE people complained about it from what I heard, because they weren't able to use the old one.
Reprom1 votesYou stupid dummy. I dont care if you dont like it.
BUT stop filling forum with this crap. + those fiora splash activists, today's forum is shit. No creative discussions, just QQs.
LegacyDAP2 votesThat's all the forum is. If there is a complaint it will be made, and if it's made multiple times there is obviously a problem.
