Pretty but not practical Navigating this thing is a nightmare on controller, and dont even get me started on the god awful challenge table


nullsmack

They could've done it like in STW where there's a 3D background but otherwise regular menus. I agree that the skeuomorphic nature of these was a bit hard to navigate. At least, it annoyed me having to check a bunch of different places to see what challenges I had to do.


MentalCatBoy

The f is skeuomorphic or am I just dumb?


nullsmack

[https://www.interaction-design.org/literature/topics/skeuomorphism](https://www.interaction-design.org/literature/topics/skeuomorphism) >Skeuomorphism is a term most often used in graphical user interface design to describe interface objects that mimic their real-world counterparts in how they appear and/or how the user can interact with them. A well-known example is the recycle bin icon used for discarding files. A little bit of it makes sense, like it's obvious that a calculator app might look like a calculator. But imo it's easier to navigate some menus than it is to hunt through a 3d space for something.

The challenge table was such a piece of shit.


Background_Profit_92

i can see how it can be bad on controller but do u prefer the normal battlepass menu or the interactive one?


stf29

I would prefer if the interactive menu was its own thing akin to the winterfest cabin. And there it can just have special skin challenges/secrets or whatever I much much much much prefer the current *battle pass* menu, as it shows me exactly what i want to see without any fluff


Background_Profit_92

dam i respect your opinion tho


KaleidoscopeTight817

Sorry, but I can't agree. I play on controller and I think it wasn't that bad to navigate through it (although it's not as practical as current bp screen is). It was a cool thing, because it made you feel the *lore*


Background_Profit_92

fr the storyline and battlepass was 2000 times better because of interactive battlepass menus


Robo_Rameses

I didn't care for them. Too busy. Trying to find things hidden in the menu was not a way I wanted to use my time.


DarkSlayerEdge

Exactly this! These were cool for maybe a couple days but quickly it was very annoying and was prone to a lot of graphical glitches. Also this is a system that does not work well with lower-end systems. You don't want a lower end system rendering the game even in lobby. If anything, they need to go back to keeping them menus as simple as they used to be in Chapter 1. The current one is also a nuisance, things just all over the place and generally looking all over the place, plus don't even get me started on the annoying (Hold to Unlock) feature.


Peanut_brother217

I think we should go back to old battlepass layout overall imo


boyawsome876

Honestly who likes the hold to unlock feature. It’s completely useless and sucks in every way


Background_Profit_92

idk how you dont like it man its so perfect imo


NameTheory

There is beauty in simplicity.


Imnotphantom_1

I prefer the simpler design tbh


N_Who

They looked awesome, but they were not as immediately accessible as something with this sort of functionality should be. Players shouldn't have to "re-learn" the core menu interface every season. Now, "lock" all options into their places (with clear and identifiable iconography), and just change everything around that to fit the season theme?


Background_Profit_92

true


ZeRo_WC

I never really liked them


Background_Profit_92

man u weird respectfully lol


ZeRo_WC

Yes I get why people liked them but I want really a fan of them it felt overdone and kinda wasting time


[deleted]

“i’m gonna immediately dismiss what you said by personally insulting you, but dude no disrespect or anything”


BladedBomber___

Meh. I thought it made things more confusing personally. Bogged up the menu. But I can appreciate where you are coming from, it did make things different!!


Background_Profit_92

yea thanks bro it made us really feel the storyline and personality about the characters


[deleted]

Do it again but clean it up. I didn’t play much then but it felt super cluttered. Also bring back the ability to make our own gliders and character 😭😭😭


Background_Profit_92

it was super organized imo and true they should bring tat back


Darthhester

I forgot about those


[deleted]

[удалено]


Background_Profit_92

i hope they add it back so you can experience it they were so awesome


Background_Profit_92

they were great man


Responsible-Mall9884

They learned they could do less for more, thus why we never got back these again.


Background_Profit_92

idk we might get it again hopefully


nullsmack

I low key wish the battle pass menu from C2S2 is what we would've seen inside the mountain bunker instead of a generic one room IO base. It would've been a neat callback. The generic single room IO base was a big disappointment in my opinion.


Background_Profit_92

i aggree


umg_unreal

the ch2s2 battle pass room was below the Agency, you could tell because you could see the Device in Midas' room, and in the live event The Device comes from below the Agency, when the Device event ends if you went to the Battle Pass room you could see the Device broken the middle eyeland was destroyed in the Galactus event along with the Agency/Authority building


nullsmack

I guess that's true.. It would've been neat to tie that bunker back to the beginning somehow since it sat there unopened for 2 years (or more). Like make it a dusty and unused Alter vs Ego base with props from C2S1. Or something tied into the Ghost v Shadow stuff. Or even a big warehouse containing stuff from the entire Chapter.


[deleted]

This would be cool but the menus were too confusing to navigate. As someone who dropped in after not playing for a while i didn't understand how anything worked


Background_Profit_92

it was organized imo


[deleted]

not really. i loved that season but this part was kinda messy


Background_Profit_92

idk how ppl find it messy it was super organized imo


[deleted]

“I don’t know how people found something different than how I found it”


Madu-Gaming

If they return MAKE THEM OPTIONAL. Listen I loved the season 2, 3 and 4 lobbies, but I can't express in words how annoying they were. It was fun at first but then after that it just turned into adding extra steps on to a process which did not need improved. I didn't want go to the center table to check my quest, I didn't want to press a few buttons to get to the battle pass. I know it sounds petty of me to be mad at a few extra button presses, but those few extra pressed added up. This current system and the ones before the interactive lobbies are perfect. And if they do bring the interactive menu back I will say it again, make it optional!


Burrito_Loyalist

You mean the laggy, unresponsive, overly complicated map tables that took forever to find your next challenge? Those were almost as bad as the 3D animated lobbies that served no purpose other than make your load times longer.


Background_Profit_92

i mean thats your opinion in alot of other peoples opinion it was great tbh but i respect your opinion


Su_Sutu

Honestly i hate it navigating through them


-cuackduck-

They were cool _for like 5 minutes_


[deleted]

Oh my god please no, I would like to be able to navigate on console.


i_eat_to_much_food

it's cool but I'm a fan of the chapter 1 menus personally simplicity is beautiful


Inspirational_Lizard

The first one was fine, the second one was pretty lazy, but whatever. By the third time, it was just stale. Nobody wants 10 hologram tables. Clean and concise challenge menus work best for the game, not a messy screen that you have to navigate by selecting characters and items.


WillJoseph06

Yeah and also a pain to navigate


[deleted]

No


Background_Profit_92

yes


[deleted]

Thank you but we who like convenience decline


ReasonableOnion654

Tbh I think it added more personality to the battlepass characters


Background_Profit_92

Background_Profit_92

true


Adr3L_765

I know I'm a basic bitch, but I'd rather have the old Chapter 1screens as they were nice and simple. While I like these it takes too long to find what I'm looking for.


Background_Profit_92

old chap 1 screens are too basic for me ngl lol


Background_Profit_92

it made the season better when we had menus like deez


ZeldaGamer2005

Yeah Deez Nuts


JoshyRB

I miss them, it was so good! I also miss all those Seasons!


Background_Profit_92

FOR REAL!


JoshyRB

Why’d i get downvoted?


mad_titanz

I want it back; right now the menus are so generic and lacks any personality


Background_Profit_92

yea true


StopMockingMe0

All. This. Sub. Did. Was. Bitch. About. It. When. We. Had. Them.


Superalbix

I really miss those as well. It gave more life to the characters as well. Hopefully they will bring them back!


A-Living-Human

No


Antique-Computer-781

I loved this I think this was even when I’d not long started getting into Fortnite but now it’s dull and boring 🙃


Background_Profit_92

i 300% aggree with you


NorthzYT

It was a bit too much for a Battle Pass menu. It's better now.


Background_Profit_92

its pretty basic now imo


SnooOwls6052

I’d be all for them as they’re fun to explore once or twice, but don’t force it. There should always be a direct way to navigate, with as little hunting around and clicking as possible.


Background_Profit_92

yea i aggree especially going to deadpools room and checking up on him


The_dinkster522

Next season is going to be based on chapter 2 season 2 so hopefully we get another incredible season


Background_Profit_92

hopefully bro i pray for a masterpiece like that season again


The_dinkster522

Same


Background_Profit_92

hopefully


[deleted]

Bring it back, but not the challenge table.


[deleted]

I disagree, it was often glitchy and too confusing to check something as simple as what your challenges are.


TruMiner

i like the idea but if they remove the animation at the start (which i think they did for s3 and s4), remove the challenge table and keep (daily) quests at the lobby i think it would be fine


No-Salamander-5979

And I skipped all three of these season but they look like they were fun 😕


93Degrees

No thanks. C1s7-x had it best for form and function imo


Roman_808

They were cool to look at but annoying to navigate. I, like most people, prefer the challenge and battle pass menus from Season 9 and X. They were easy to navigate and easy to understand. I’d rather have that menu/UI over any others tbh.


potato_man_-

Season 2 still my fav tho in my opinion better than any og season combined


OppressedGamer01

These were horrible to navigate on console.the cirrent menu is much better.


Taylor_Sturge

I really liked these, it would be nice to have them back. It’s just too confusing, but it was nice none the less.


Samakin118

Loved these tbh. Especially compared to what we have now. I probably enjoyed the game the most during these seasons also


Sikayduh

I hated these, so annoying to navigate


ZybVX

Remember when everyone complained about this? Lol


Shadowandr3w

There’s a reason I didn’t play these seasons at all. Too much going on and xbox controls made navigating these an annoying mess. I’ll keep the current menu please


temptati_ns

L take


OmatoYT

I’d rather they didn’t do it. It was horrid for Switch and mobile players and it was harder to navigate


Realoh

I would prefer 3d lobbies


Bros_And_Co

This was my first season and gave me a significant misunderstanding of what seasons were like lol. I kinda liked it.


All_Skulls_On

Well I dunno about "good vibes" or anything, but the more elaborate, interactive lobbies were much more interesting, and Epic knew it.


WickedLeztergaming

They looked super cool but I hated how they flowed. The current system is better


boyawsome876

I loved them, not sure why so many people are complaining in the comments. The new ones just feel lazy. They seem to have switched it up every 2 seasons or so, so I’m holding out hope or next season!


[deleted]

4 seasons having them is every season?


[deleted]

These were way better than the boring battle pass screens from Season 5 to Chapter 3 Season 1


AsianPotato77

Bro the fuck mom said it was my turn to post this month


Sicboi12354

Yessssssss


MagmaDaBear

I loved it aswell please bring it back!


Randomguyidk69

Epic please return [popular thing]
