I think I'm the only one that actaully likes the new interface, I think it's a bit better than the old one.

The lag at least is the servers taking a hit from all the downloading. That at least I would think is not a result of an update bug, but a result of the update.

I like it as well. I think its a little easier on the eyes than the old one was. I forsee less eye faatigue after long gaming sessions. It looks good (I think), props to the UI guys.

Only thing I dont like is the glaring colors when I watch my opponents skills.

Maybe this is Anet's subtle way of trying to make interupting even harder than before

Got decompression speed problems (hint hint not fixed AN), goto windowed mode. Works faster for some reason.

As for the UI, its bad...really bad. One of the worst ive seen, its ugly, many functions are in opposition to common sense, and its slow. Real slow.

White for when negative effect? The skill casting bar have some bad acid? Whats with all the bad "website from the mid 90s" gradients? Does everything need to be curvey, most GW are not forced to wear mittens and whats with the 1989 Helvetica font on the health bar.

If theyd done a simple recolour from rit blue to say derv brown it would have been fine.

It's what happens when a game gets popular...D2 used to be annoying like this.
