Lets all be honesy this looks better doesnt it???.. this is what we are saying lol.
Back to the days of SF2 with us here at KI when UI took all the screen.
Just make it more discreet or toggle it on and off thats not too much to ask.
And no infili you are right we cant tell yet and im sure these will be edited, but they are notciably closer and noticably bigger than SF5
The punishment even touches SW thats not good! Its bad design.
Imo this all needs options and edits.
what’s wrong with these forums? I’ve been flagged just by asking for a toggle?!

you still ca be rewareded. The conbo-Breaker only let’s know WHEN it’s been broken. If they don’t know how to break the combo it will never appear in the first place.

If only to chime in:
I like the changes, though I do think the text and style should be revised depending on the Season 3 aesthetic. The L/M/H indicator could instead change the color of the underline to Blue, Yellow or Red rather than adding text. Just an idea for those in favor of minimization, though I’m fond of the current proposal.
Lockout timer is perfectly acceptable, as I’m pretty excited for the probable increase in Counter Breakers this will add to the average game.
Any options added for turning these features on/off can only make people happy, so I’m for that.

Casual gamers don’t really have time to learn everything… am a hardcore KI player… my friend is a casual KI player… Both love the game but struggles in matches with breaks because he doesn’t have the time… This new system allows for intuitive real time learning of the breakers… which I think is great… helps out a lot of players. It is hardly spoon feeding people on what to do… you still have to learn and remember but it allows for a quick recap when picking the game up

Because that’s street fighter… This KI… smaller isn’t always better… but I do agree with the many many many many posts on customisable HUD

The thing with KI’s design though is that it’s meant to be big and in your face. Just listen to the announcer: “COUNTER BREAKEREHIWHSFKJCNWQEJLDVNWOJDN!!!” and so the giant pop ups fit that. It wouldn’t make sense to have a sleek display while the announcer is yelling at the top of his lungs and epic music is blasting in the background.

I think the point of this is to reduce the learning curve for players just getting into the game so that they don’t get so frustrated that they just quit.
I undetstand @WandaMaximoff’s position in this. It’s not an unreasonable request. I think people are confusing that she believes it shouldn’t be put into the game. Really she thinks it’s a good idea, just that it’s not for her (also sorry @WandaMaximoff assuming you are female), and she’d prefer the UI HUD to stay the same.

These changes are awesome, I think it’ll help bring in more players and give the game more of a draw to newcomers. Even when I explain how the game works to my friends, they’re still confused. This visual representation will definitely help!
This is on point thsnks @Sheptastic0312 for reading and understanding . I do see its worth kn this but 2 things bother me:
-
The timing to market, its been 2 years. Weve mostly adjusted now.
-
The size and placement of the counter and punish information stould be discreet unless its the original combo counter announcement thing.
So all in all for the PC its great. It will help new people and pros but the casual middle (that’s HUGE) might not need or want this extra clutter.
The best option is to give options
Ps: im a guy 
but thanks lol

I like the new Hud touches. But why for the love of God are they from 2 different seasons. It’s like they’re trying to activate OCD lol.
Why have the shadow font completely different from the rest?
Do punishment and reversal have audio que’s? Cause we’ve been waiting for 7 months for the stage ultra audio que’s.

I sure hope not, these things should be text-only (with all due respect to visually impaired players).

The Scarlet Witch is AWSOME! 
Thanks for your comments above! i dont like to be a kill joy on these things (specially on here) but its nice when people listen to the finer details and my general point. Its at that point we can all join minds and meet in the middle to make this game even more AWSOME!

Haha this thread cracks me upf. It’s a wonder why IG takes any community feedback (some of these comments are just ridiculous). Why on earth wouldn’t you want the game you enjoy playing to be more accessible to new players? It doesn’t make the game easier, it makes it easier to learn! Some of you speaking out against that are simply selfish you want some arbitrary barrier to entry. The only reasoning I can see for this is because you’re scared people will become as good as you or you feel that just because it was harder for you to learn everyone else needs to have a difficult time. That’s just selfish and honestly a cowards mentality. Because why wouldn’t you want there to be more competition?
It’s been said time and time again in this thread these changes just provide more information after the fact they do not change how they game is played. Even the lockout timer, if you’re elitist enough to dislike it you probably already have your timing down and memorized and guess what so have your opponents! Again this just makes it so new players entering can learn quicker thereby providing you with a larger competitive pool to play against.
This elitest mentality and desire to make games less accessible to new comers has plagued the FGC for years and it’s a large reason as to why the FGC doesn’t come close to other genres in popularity and esports success. Get over yourselves, the top talent is the top talent you don’t need arbitrary barriers that serve more to deter players from joining the community than they do to protect your skill gap.
