I absolutely agree. There was nothing wrong with the cards. They were artful beautiful and funny.

Cool, now we’re in a situation where healthy people are mad at people with health issues for ruining their pulsing rainbow vomit. Was it really so difficult to just put an option in the settings so that everyone can choose which UI suits them?

That would be so nice to have. Just a switch to keep old or get new design.

BYEEEEEE GoW.

Game designers have shown they don’t care. They said they will look at making some changes but no ETA and no real update or communication since.

My play time is 7200+ hours and the $$ I have spent was worth it, at the time, but they won’t get my hours or $$ going forward.

Couldn’t daily play because of the headache it caused (I actually need to work and support my gaming addiction without a headache yall) so had to quit my guild I’ve been a member of for 3.5 years.  
That was a bit heartbreaking but the designers have shown me how nice it is to not have to play daily (or at all!!).

I think I’ve made it through my gems withdrawals so I’m OUT.

Good luck to the rest of you- those who love the new UI and the ones who can’t play because of it.  
For those who love it- awesome- have fun! Pick up the slack for those of us that have to quit.  
For those who have to quit- it’s ok. Quit. Find a new game and new community… it happens and I wish you well.

So im just bumping this back up, Kafka said discussions were being made and radio silence ever since for weeks. This card design gives people migraines for crying out loud and been VERY widely expressed as a negative change throughout the community. Please im asking for an update as im dragging my feet quitting this game trying to help my guild out with the little I can play but the silence is crazy at this point

It wouldn’t be better to just stop? I think your guild will understand, it’s not your fault after all and there’s the possibility that they’ll do nothing about it.

Bramble or Kafka did post somewhere (I’m sorry, I failed at finding the post) that they are working on it. But it would be nice if they posted another update with an anticipated timeline.

My GM, of one of the top guilds, has officially quitted the game.

Yeah thats part of the issue. Currently one of the “Leadership” or whatever you want to call it in one of the top xbox guilds. I like the people and the game frankly so im trying to stall on officially quitting as I am the type that once I uninstall there is no reinstalling of games. Call it being naive but they said “in discussion for next update” and just nothing since that I have found. Im just hopeful that something is in the works and tired of trying to stall chipping away 3 battles at a time and stepping away for 10 mins. Borderline just autoplay pace is getting old haha. Anyway im back to lurking just hoped to get the topic back on the Devs mind

Also the post Kafka made was 20 days ago on this thread from the time im posting this so almost 3 weeks now. All Im asking is any ETA? Minor update? Major Update? Was still very vague

I really, really sympathize with all the players who are having serious health problems after the last update of the game. I may be late to this topic, but still I want to give one piece of advice that can help a little. The developers did a very bad thing during the update, except for the graphics redesign - they set the graphics quality to the maximum in the game settings, and this greatly worsens the situation. You need to go into the settings and reduce the quality of the graphics to a minimum, then it will be a little easier to play. This tip helped our guild players. I myself do not play on a smartphone, I only play on a 10" tablet and a PC with a 19" monitor, I try to look at card banners less often. With a low graphics setting, I do not experience physical discomfort, although my vision is problematic.

We have plans, or have already started implementing some changes in the next game update for the following: Increasing font-size for armor and life on the Troop cards Improving colour/contrast on the mana numbers on the Troop cards Improving the contrast on the Life and Armor numbers to avoid readability issues when the numbers are the same colour as the Mana bar behind it. Looking at improving broken armor icon bein…

Now that a month has passed - what is the progress concerning this matter? Can you share some updates?

Pictures with side-by-side before/after comparison would be most welcome to gauge if you’re even going in the right direction. It is unfortunate but your amateur player ideas of card design readability and usability sometimes seem to be at complete odds with those of actual everyday players.

Is it just me, or has the current storm at the bottom of the screen expanded outside of the little, coloured ball? I thought that my TV was broken, because it looks like some big scratches into all directions. 😕

Please give us that option to use the old interface on cards etc with static design and actually readible stats.

I am not able to use the new design due to it giving me headaches and seizures and I can barely read the tiny numbers now (have to get really close to the screen to do so… UHGHH)  
@Milady I already have quality at low and blur off (by default, but still was) and I get headaches and miniseizures after even two or three matches already from the non-static status effects.
