With patch 1.2 almost out I thought it would be a good idea to post some ideas for people to see and (hopefully) Epic to consider implementing as they start working on more patches.
First of all, the "logging in" screen when you load up the game is irritating and doesn't let you do anything else while it's going. A more subtle approach would be to go directly to the main menu and have a little bar at the bottom to show login progress (obviously this only applies if auto-login is enabled):
Second, the multiplayer screens could use some cleaning up. The screen you see when you first hit "Multiplayer" from the main menu contains very little and could easily be eliminated. The three options could be integrated directly to the server browser:
Lastly, we've all been begging for more options in the settings menu. I put together a simple mockup to show how such a menu might look like:
Anyway those are just my suggestions. Post your own or comment on mine!
