Battlefield 6's Netflix UI Redesign Controversy
The recent Battlefield 6 beta reveals a frustrating UI reminiscent of Netflix, filled with tiles and horizontal scrolling that distract from gameplay. Players are left scrolling through curated playlists instead of quickly accessing game modes, leading to a clunky experience. The loadout screen suffers similarly, making weapon changes tedious and awkward for mouse users. While developer feedback is promising, early changes feel superficial, lacking a comprehensive redesign that players crave. Community feedback has sparked fan-made redesigns that prioritize simplicity and functionality. Unfortunately, the trend of tile-based interfaces seems to be here to stay, echoing frustrations seen in other titles. Despite the enjoyable core gameplay, the UI significantly detracts from the overall experience. In short, a revamp is needed to match the high standards of the franchise.
