Elbmuh Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 The text is way too small for me to read. I need to be able to adjust this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djaram Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yep, me too. I'm sitting too close to my HDTV for my own good, a fix will make a lot of people happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raz_dash Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 add my name to the list the text is way too small and i can't get it to change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phuzzi Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 It amazes me this sort of issue wasn't addressed in beta, the current UI should never had made it past alpha let alone that the game's gone live with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anadrea Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I've known my glasses need updating for a while (It's a slow progression, I can still read these forums and others fine, but other text of the same size gets fuzzy when I try to read it depending on contrast.). However, I absolutely cannot read the tooltips at a distance normally experienced using my desktop. Leaning in all the time just gives me a backache. Anyway, I support font size changes and I'll stop whining now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tara_xo Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I agree, it's a real strain on my eyes to try to read some of the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val_Den Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) I am middle aged and have a hard time seeing the font as well. The amount of eye strain has kept me from being able to play the game well enough to keep up with friends and guild mates. My work around has been to ask my friend to give me a brief on tool tips and conversations. I feel like I am imposing on them.

apmanley Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Agreed. A UI scale needs to be added. One of the developer blogs had said that we would have the option to change our font sizes, so I'm not sure why we don't. Also, how do you change the chat font size?

Bowoci Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Add my wife and my /sign to this as well. They need to add some type of font size adjustment to the entire UI, not just the chat box. We are also middle aged... and the text in the cut scenes, tooltips, vendors etc is way too small! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icealli Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm having this problem as well, also my entire screen is a lil' blurry including the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firedraggin Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Please add me to this list as well, playing on a HDTV really sucks when I only have choices between Squint or move my couch 3 feet forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkKoxxxafloppn Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I have a 52" I'm playing on and I can't read text either. So I hope they do an update quick cause I'm starting to lose interest in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SelinaH Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Agreed. A UI scale needs to be added. One of the developer blogs had said that we would have the option to change our font sizes, so I'm not sure why we don't. Also, how do you change the chat font size? Right-click on the chat tab at the top of the chat window and you should get a drop-down menu that includes a "Font Size" option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nylonica Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I have been struggling for a while now to change the entire game font size to larger than it is at default. It is way too small for me to see. I managed to adjust the chat font size, but everything else is super tiny. Help please You can't. The people making this game think its only kids with ultra vision who play it apparently. Try World of Warcraft, you can change all aspects there, getting readable text is nothing but a mod away.

Durzaka Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I am 18 and i have no trouble seeing things on a small smart phone screen, but the text in game makes my eyes hurt. I cant even see the name of an ability under its cast bar. I support changing font size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nylonica Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I don't think you can right now other than changing your resolution, but hopefully it's a feature they will add as I can't read some of the smaller UI and tooltip texts either. Why do people always say "change resolution" ? Ever try it? IT DOESN'T WORK - they just scale the interface so it takes up the same physical amount of space. ie, doesn't get larger.

Nylonica Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 is because your on a tv. No, its because its a pathetically small font size that looks crop on a computer monitor as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nylonica Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 DEVS, Please consider this a hot list item. Your folks with eyes older than 40 Terran years have genetic disadvantages here! They have less than a month, no way I'm going to keep paying a company to discriminate people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelthermor Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 "Quick fix: change resolution" When I opened a ticket in-game. The fix, it does nothing Very fun game, too bad it's unplayable for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
