FRONTLINE NEWS: Updated UI has almost reached the trenches...
Did you know it was Verdun’s fourth Anniversary last April? Four years is a long time anywhere, but especially in video games. Four years on, and we still have another free update on the way - let’s take a look what will be included!
The new UI revamps the look and feel of the game. We've shared quite a bit about the new UI already, so we'll leave you with a few new WIP screenshots today:
The new main menu.
Role loadout and squad screen.
To help new players get the hang of things, we will be adding a new system of hints. Here are a few WIP screenshots demonstrating the concept:
The hints will highlight and describe parts of the interface.
They will appear in menus and anywhere else an explanation will be handy for new players.
The hints will explain things during the game itself as well, such as NCO commands.
As we mentioned last time, the 32 player classic mode will be going away. Naturally you can still start your own 32 player games via private matches. For instance, check out X’s Friday events - more info here!
Finally, if you weren’t aware, we have a big console update on the way. Both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Verdun will see the new squads and other content from the PC version implemented, plus the new UI and other improvements.
See you then!
