Bad Update, released before fixing issues.

1. The new chat takes up more room, making games with GUIs set directly below the chat overlapping.
2. The text is to small to read without moving yourself closer to the screen. You can't change the text size, plus the font style is terrible.
4. If you minimize and re-open ROBLOX it messes up the entire chat.
5. If you start typing in the chatbar and press escape it gives two overlapping texts. One text is what you just wrote and the overlapping text is the "Press / to ..." one.
5. Not sure about you, but I was expecting the menu to be drag-able or re-sizable.

I am all for updates, but not when they are rushed and turn out to be worse.

There are plenty of other bugs I immediately noticed, but I wont be part of the solution to a product that ROBLOX clearly released without properly reviewing first. Shows how much they care about their customers.

You know what they'll tell us to do?
"Deal with it. We'll push out another update in a few months or so."

A month later...
"THE TEXT IS EVEN SMALLER NOW. WHAT."
"Deal with it. We'll push out another update in a few months or so."

Wait and repeat.

no it doesnt

"2. The text is to small to read without moving yourself closer to the screen. You can't change the text size, plus the font style is terrible."

i have glasses and i can see. if you can't see, you REALLY need a checkup with an optician.

"4. If you minimize and re-open ROBLOX it messes up the entire chat."

so?

"5. If you start typing in the chatbar and press escape it gives two overlapping texts. One text is what you just wrote and the overlapping text is the "Press / to ..." one."

don't press ESC then. just like you shouldn't press alt + f4.

5. Not sure about you, but I was expecting the menu to be drag-able or re-sizable.

@padam11, You need to do more research before attempting to slander my claims.

(Refer to his previous post to fully understand my responses)

1. It's obvious that the text box is larger than before. If you can't see the different than either you really need an eye exam or your monitor must be just a single pixel, basically a light bulb.

2. The text size is based on pixels, better monitors with a higher resolution and lower PD will end up with the text being smaller since the text does not scale. Making the text manually re-sizable could help this.

3. Clearly you are a hipster who prefers products which are flawed and useless rather than reliable and effective products.

4. Both Runescape, WoW, Minecraft, and the majority of online games allow you to use esc with the chat. ROBLOX has been using that style since the beginning.

5. So you couldn't think of a valid response to you instead choose to making idiotic claims in an attempt to discredit me.

I'm not sure if you are just ignorant or really bad at playing Devil's Advocate, or perhaps both.

um, ok? developers can change it at their wish.

"2. The text size is based on pixels, better monitors with a higher resolution and lower PD will end up with the text being smaller since the text does not scale. Making the text manually re-sizable could help this."

ok, then they'll add a re-sizeable tool, but that will also create overlapping guis.

"3. Clearly you are a hipster who prefers products which are flawed and useless rather than reliable and effective products."

nope. if i can deal with whatever they're giving then i'm fine with it. and i can deal with this.

"4. Both Runescape, WoW, Minecraft, and the majority of online games allow you to use esc with the chat. ROBLOX has been using that style since the beginning."

and what is the point of that?

"5. So you couldn't think of a valid response to you instead choose to making idiotic claims in an attempt to discredit me.

no?
