We made a list of five features Infinity Ward needed to change after playing the Modern Warfare 2 Open Beta. Difficult-to-navigate menus made finding Weapon Unlock Platforms, Perk Packages, and Gunsmith options a cumbersome task. So one of our five demands was an improved User Interface (UI). Infinity Ward listened to Beta feedback and addressed some of the UI concerns. The developers stated, \u201cwe have been working hard on numerous updates to our UI that make accessing and customizing your loadout more seamless.\u201d CharlieINTEL noted UI designers from Hulu and other streaming platforms joined Activision over the last few years, possibly contributing to a decline in menu quality. Whatever the case, it\u2019s clear that players demand better. What\u2019s wrong with Modern Warfare 2\u2019s UI Design? Reddit user Always-Panic claimed MW2 has \u201cthe worst UI in a CoD game so far.\u201d Their biggest concerns are the Multiplayer playlists, disorganized Campaign options, and separated Social Channels. One player responded, \u201cIt seems purposely confusing. I know people will easily miss most of the game modes due to terrible UI. The only thing that can fix it is a complete overhaul.\u201d A second user added, \u201cI couldn\u2019t believe my eyes when I first started up the game. We told them that the beta UI was garbage. Somehow they thought it was a good idea to double down and make it worse.\u201d Some players argued that bringing over former streaming platform UI designers hurt MW2. A third player claimed, \u201cthey developed what they knew; a streaming platform and not a video game. Hence why it\u2019s trash.\u201d Infinity Ward stated they \u201cwill continue to optimize our UX,\u201d so we will provide any updates if changes are made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern Warfare 2 players slam \u201cworst UI in CoD history\u201d ActivisionModern Warfare 2 players are in disbelief over the game\u2019s \u201cpurposely confusing\u201d UI design and demand changes.
