In-game interface redesign sneak-peek

It looks great!!!! Only 1 question. Where will the chat box be?

I suggest to put the advisors on the top of the screen with the other buttons. 

I suggest to put the advisors on the top of the screen with the other buttons. 

And they don't speak unless spoken to :)

Could make the chat box a clickable icon that will open the box up over the other icons when you're wanting to chat.

I need to be able to see the chat box at all times. I use is constantly.  

We are all very use to it on the bottom. No one likes the towns under it. How about if the box is back at the bottom and the towns run up the side?

Will the flag button go away?

Really nice graphics! Well done!

One suggestion - I think the "jar" around the mini map should be smaller - it takes up quite some space compared to other icons and most of it is just filled with black.

Also, I'm not sure whether I need to post a suggestion in the bugs forum, but I thought it would be really nice to have an icon that would be similar to the "call hero here" but would move us to where the hero is. I find that it is really cumbersome to switch between let's say a dungeon - town - world map - dungeon when I only need to start new construction. Maybe if the map loaded faster it wouldn't be such a nuisance but right now it takes really long... Also when you explore a location and one town after another finishes construction it is quite distracting time after time to complete this sequence.

Yes! That's exactly what is needed :)

Yeah, chat is essential but I don't mind the idea of flashing icons for when something is said. . .

And, I'd like the advisors to have smaller icons up at the top too.  :-)

Below in the list of towns if hero is in some quest location, that quest location will be also present at the bottom. That way you will be able to switch back and forth to that location without going to the world map. Will that sort out your problem?

If we also could send hero from one quest location to the next location, we would be SOOOOO happy!! :)

I like the clean uncluttered look and design of the current icons at the top. The way they are displayed against a background makes them easy to immediately see and recognize. The design of the new world map is nice and the new icons, but it seems to occupy more space than the existing one and block even more screen space.  The addition of a new icon for quest location is great - like that. However I like the size of the current icons and the small amount of space they use.  Bigger icons block more of the screen.  Not fond of continuous chat screen at the bottom and icons on the side. As more players begin to play on laptops with smaller screens (10 inch) actual play space is critical and bigger icons take away from actual play space.
