Main Menu Redesign

[quartz trellis]

I think the BattleBit main menu looks a bit weird. Most of the screen space is empty, tabs not even centered. So I made this concept-art to show how menu (for my opinion) supposed to look like. Logo feels strange to me, honestly.

[full hearth]

eh 2nd pic feels more like a downgrade/mobile unity game lol

removes the friends list and puts it in a category which just means more button pressing and going in menus

[edgy merlin]

Tbh i can see why they went with the way they did with the menu

Its pretty much the battlefield 4 menu and bbr is infact inspired by battlefield 4

[quartz trellis]

oh, I see

I can make similar thing, it would be a bit better than the og battlebit menu, I guess

[elfin urchin]

honestly, the UI you made is amazing, its just needs some improvements

[quartz trellis]

thanks :D
Anyway, I recently made the new concept, which preserves the original style, but also adds some improvements to UI.

If developers prefers more original style, then this concept would be cool option to make in the game

I can make different versions of menu, if it needs to

[elfin urchin]

yup thats more like it. Im still not a fan of the friends tab extending when you hover it since it sometimes blocks the exit button. But in this version it shouldnt really be a problem i guess

[brazen shoal]

that's way better in any case better than the basic menu

[quartz trellis]

I knew about this problem before, so my fix is, when the friends tab extending, then the Exit, Settings and Server buttons are extending together with friends tab

[quartz trellis]

yeah, I agree with that :)

Clean and easy to follow. Looks great! From another graphics designer entusiast 😉

only thing i maybe thought was weird was having 2 quick match buttons for 32 64, but missing 127. Could be a button leading to a pop up with options, or have selections inside the quick match box where you can tick on/off whatever you wanna search for

[quartz trellis]

Yep, I was also thinking about it. If I made the pop up button, then the rest of UI would be empty, and I don't know how to fill it xd

Ok, maybe I could add clan or leaderboard buttons to Main menu, it would be look fine I guess

[stray flax]

You wouldnt have to remove the rest of the UI though, could just be like the one we already have, which is a box that shows on screen while the UI gets blurry in the background 👍

or maybe im missing what you meant?

[shy eagle]

This UI is beautiful!!! 😍

[stray flax]

oh wait there IS 127, not sure how i missed that, read it wrong for some reason, my bad!

[quartz trellis]

I don't know English that much, so sometimes I can not understand something😅
I mean, I could remove all quick matches, and leave only one, and when you click on it, then buttons for 32, 64, 127 players appears, and smoothly moves on the right.
On the one side, that idea is good, but on the other side, it could make more troubles with fast navigation or something like that

[quartz trellis]

it's okay

[stray flax]

now i understand what you meant about empty, and I agree, then i think it looks good the way it is 👍

[full hearth]

that looks a bit better now
reminds me of what ive been asking oki for awhile with the news/events tab at the bottom
allow people to see what updates are coming (none RIP lol)
or what twitch events are going on to get skins (if thats even done in the future)
but i even said this back then
its a great way to keep all players who arent in the discord updated with most of the info

[quartz trellis]

Yes, I also think that it is the good idea, in most online games that feature exists

[hollow karma]

the fact that this type of feedback gets buried in the sea of braindead takes is awful, really hoping a dev or terminal see's this :)

[edgy merlin]

Just ping terminal

We are here to do nothing but ping terminal

[sturdy citrus]

@thin sinew idk someone said to do it

[balmy wren]

Filling the UI as suggested is bad for user experience. Menus should be simple and intuitive, not cluttered with big boxes and fonts that forces user to move his eyes around alot

I do agree though that something is missing

[full hearth]

only thing thats missing in my eyes (besides customization/loadouts)
is an event/news menu

[quartz trellis]

Here's new UI that I was working on. It looks like the bf menus, but tweaked here and there.
Logo is cartoonish for my opinion. But overall menu looks better then my previous design of it :P

I also added a chat group, if in your lobby at least 1 friend. I'm not sure, but right now there's no chat in bbr in main menu between you and your friends. So would be a cool feature too :D

[main cape]

I like it

[edgy merlin]

Id move a few things around but overall is good

[golden delta]

This looks nice tho

[drowsy tendon]

This looks great. The best one yet. Although I’d improve the logo(not sure how) and also replace challenges with recently played servers and info about them (player count, map, ping) like in the battlefield menu

[shy eagle]

Why haven't they hired you already.

Your work is very nice

[quartz trellis]

Thanks :)

[edgy merlin]

Devs already hired an UI/UX designer

I think thats prolly why
