Bug Description:

Food and Water or Water and Food?!


Bug Reproduction:

The March 25 update introduced a change in the HUD probably due to the devs adding the unneeded compass ‘feature’. They changed the order and positioning of the Food and Water levels, contrasting with the order that has been shown from the Inventory area and the positions which players have committed to memory since their first days of playing this game.

Have you not had any experienced players or developers even test this change as it was being implemented? Surely if you make a change in one area, you would reflect it within the other area. Do you not even play the game enough to notice that these values are inconsistent? They annoy the hell out of me!

I doubt others are keeping score, but I am not happy with the changes to stamina and the changes to this HUD info, but at least it looks like I can knock out Black Corsairs once more. Oh, I still see View Obstructed everywhere when trying to place items. The specialized containers still won’t close their lids automatically like normal chests. I’ll probably sign in unable to move without rubber-banding.

At least there is a non-needed compass. Now I need a tool-tip to tell me whether I need to eat or drink. Egg or Avocado…

Oh, and I STILL CAN NOT move items in or out of my inventory unless the sort order is NO SORTING and I move the item one failed time before it succeeds. This has occurred thousands of times per month causing SO MUCH FRUSTRATION. Super annoying!

But we have to have our priorities, right? Let’s delete a useless unplayable fortress on Exiled Lands and add a non-needed compass.

Oof, that’s going to take some getting used to. Very confused why they needed to flip-flop those in the HUD.

They didn’t swap them intentionally, and will put them back.

Exactly.

Now, I noticed this, but it took a while. At first, I just thought they were not working correctly.

It was a hilarious moment when I realized, on stream, how wrong I was.

Thank you. I sure hope they do correct this.

I didn’t mark this topic as solved, BTW. Somebody else did that even though I am prompted to choose an acceptable solution.

My solution would be for Funcom to hire me as a QA engineer.
