Hey everyone! I'm typing this out just a few hours before Chapter 5 Season 2 starts. Let's hope that Epic Games has been able to come up with some good changes to the UI! If not, feel free to come back here and let me know your thoughts, and do me a favor and share this video if you know someone who also wants to see a NEWER Locker UI, please and thank you! EDIT: Well this aged terribly.
This is so much better than what epic gave us. I don’t think I’ve changed wraps or lobbies since the season started because it’s just so annoying to change several presets every few games…
Hey Achilles! You and I are in the exact same boat! It's such a chore to switch cosmetics now, that I rarely ever do anymore. Please do me a favor and share the video with your friends if you think they would like this Locker UI too instead! Thanks!
All I want is for them to improve the banner, there’s only so much we can do with it, I was thinking they could implement a calling card with it, a way to express our selfs more, what exactly can be done is having a background with our username plus banner and lvl, With the banner you could change three things (1. The icon, 2. The color of the icon, 3. The color of the background behind the icon, than with the background you could use wallpaper’s that are usually for loading screens, than obviously the font could change to match the theme of there calling card and same could go for the lvl to depending on who wants to show it. We could even put one of are skins in the calling card doing a emote.) I just like to let the enemy know that they lost to someone but in style, plus I really want to change the icon color of the banner I’m just really sick of it being white.. is that just me or no? Anyway nice video I liked your take on the UI, I hope that it looks like this eventually, I definitely don’t like some of the things Epic did with the locker but oh well, they’ll probably change it again eventually hopefully for the better.
This is way better than what we have - your UI gives the user less hassle when changing things but tbh I just don’t like the way the locker even looks (not yours the actual new locker) the old one just felt Fortnitey (if that’s the word) and this one really doesn’t
Thanks two! I totally understand what you are saying! I know that many of us aren't fans of the stylistic choices, but I also recognized that Epic is less likely to change back to previous styles so that's why I created this concept without changing stylistic choices. Regardless, I completely agree!
This is so much better. The only thing I would change would be making the banner selection screen fit more in with every other selection screen. (I know it’s just cosmetic but it would be nice)
Definitely Wotts! I had considered the idea, but like I mentioned at the start of the video, I would not mess with stylistic choices so I figured I would have to leave the banner selection menu the same. Regardless, I love the idea!
@@The72Productions in save the world you have the main skin, backbling, and pickaxe with the option of using the skin of whatever hero you have equipped in place of a locker skin so it needs to know your currently equipped hero loadout and you can’t use your glider or contrail. It uses all the wraps that BR does, notably the ‘special’ wrap slot is used for the hoverboard. None of the jam track / car stuff is used in save the world at all so you wouldn’t need to put those in it. And lastly the Banner/Background Music/Loading Screens should be the same as normal! Hopefully that helped in some way lol
Gonna share this around. Great video, and I've been dying to preview pickaxes, gliders, and wraps in the locker without having to jump in game for years.
Please do! I would appreciate it if you shared this video with other players who have the same issues with the Locker UI! And I agree! This feature is needed NOW!
That means a lot novis! Thank you so much, it took me quite a while to get this done so I appreciate it! If you think that others could benefit from my new Locker UI, please be sure to share it with them as well!
Thank you zato! Personally, had the new modes not been added, I would have loved to have kep the old UI as it was, but considering the changes, I know we needed to "upgrade" things a bit, so thank you for the feedback and do me a favor and share the video with others if you know someone else that would love to see this better UI!
While I love most of the things I partially don’t agree with the ,,confirm’’ button for changing outfits, as while being a great change for PC players it would make cosmetic selection even more unpleasant for console/controller players than it currently is. It definetly could stay the way you have proposed on Keyboard and Mouse but for controllers I would l prefer it it be the same way it used to be before the UI change - hovering over a cosmetic allows you to rotate it freely, selecting a style doesn’t auto-equip the cosmetic but instead opens up a menu where you can adjust the styles (the style selection menu has its own ,,confirm’’ button that returns you into cosmetic selection) and once you are all done you just press the button that selects cosmetic items currently.
Exactly! I can understand that we can't go back to a 1:1 copy of the original UI, but there's still many features from the original that can still work! Please be sure to share this video (especially since it seems that Chapter 5 Season 2 has brought no new UI changes). Thanks!
I'd literally pay for this. I do have a suggestion, custom sorting for the cosmetic selection. This would allow you to have your skins in order of themes that you make yourself
Thanks blueberry! Being able to custom sort our cosmetics is definitely a feature that Epic needs to look into, simply being able to put our cosmetics into folders or organize them how we like would be such a huge Quality of Life change!
Be sure to share this video on social media and tag him on it! I tried messaging him to see if he'd like to do a review or react but I didn't get an answer back, maybe his audience needs to ask for it too!
Thank you Brixer! I hope so too! In the meantime though, I would appreciate it if you shared this video with other users who feel the same way. Thanks!
holy moly this ui is everything ive been looking for😍😍😍😍,amazing video. I think that making your future videos faster pace in future would be perfect because you know how attention spans are these days
Believe it or not it took me over a month to produce this video! UI design is no joke! Maybe that's why it's taken Epic so long to fix it lol. Thanks so much and I'm happy that you enjoyed the video!
Hey SMGames! Personally I think that it just wasn't tested enough. There are so many issues with the current UI that it doesn't make sense to keep the Locker UI as it is, at the very least it needs some major bug fixes!
No joke this is probably the most simple thing for them to do but they just won't do it for some reason I'm glad someone put in the effort to demonstrate it All I would say is a little more uniqueness it just looks a little bland
Thank you so much frosty! I agree on the locker looking bland, *but* I can accept this to be a stylistic choice by Epic, so I left it as is! Regardless, the locker needs HUGE changes!
Yeah, sometimes they are just *weird*, but, I also know that this is the new "style" that Epic wants to use so I understood that my Locker UI change would also have to keep a smiliar style!
I've just saw another video also talking about the locker UI, but what i like of this video is not tending to just go back. Even though i like the old style more than the new one, there might be a reason for fortnite to change it, and changes should be welcome. Rather, changes need to happen because the UI is unconfortable by its own. I also like that there is actual technisism in this video, making the reason for changes more objective. Pretty good video overall, hopefully this gets the traction it deserves.
I agree! Sure, I think the old style is generally more appealing, but I wanted to create my concept to be realistic considering Epic's new style for Fortnite. Thank you so much Pahiman!
Hope so too! I currently don't have plans to re-do the discovery tab, but I will definitely consider it and pay more attention to the idea! Thank you Ein!
This is really well done, but I have just one disagreement with it. Every aspect of this I do enjoy, but I would personally just have two tabs. Locker, and LEGO® Kits. I only say this as LEGO® Kits unfortunately exist, and are here to stay whether we agree with it or not. Since everything can be found in BR, (Besides Auras and the LEGO® Counterpart to your skin.) it is easily transferable in the other modes without needing to switch a Preset within that specific section for the mode. I suggest, to preview the LEGO® Counterpart of your skin, they're instead be a different way, as opposed to renaming a section of the Locker. Like a hotkey, but that'd be inconsiderate of controller players, maybe. Which is another thing to take accounting for.
That's a great idea too! Personally, with the inclusion of Lego Kits, I think they could be inserted into the LEGO FORTNITE section I proposed, but I can definitely see what you mean. Thanks!
i love ui, i love fortnite, i love ui concepts (i even make some on reddit), and i'm glad people who actually understand ui design are making content on the fortnite UI the downgrade over the years is very disappointing, and the fact it lost its identity with time is really sad, they got rid of slanted buttons, their iconic burbank font family, the bouncy animations on the elements... it really makes me sad to see this as a UI and design fanatic as i think that having an identity is genuinely key in design but anyway, great video and great redesign!
Awesome design, idk why Epic have to make things overly complicated and just outright unintuitive. The current UI just looks so unprofessional and awful to work with. Out of curiosity, what program did you use to design your UI concept?
Hey everyone! I'm typing this out just a few hours before Chapter 5 Season 2 starts. Let's hope that Epic Games has been able to come up with some good changes to the UI!
If not, feel free to come back here and let me know your thoughts, and do me a favor and share this video if you know someone who also wants to see a NEWER Locker UI, please and thank you!
EDIT: Well this aged terribly.
Lol
this aged badly underrated vid btw

don't think epic would change the UI every new season though, but we might see the UI change again on next chapter which is chapter 6 😢

Yes PLEASE!

after the even more recent decisions with the locker this is exactly what we all want back thanks for this
Thank you so much Outset! I agree!
I never wanted this redesign even more until after the rarity being removed
Right? The removal of rarities can be a huge issue!
you're so underrated. this is gonna blow up, trust
I'm trustin'! Thanks so much ryguy!
Honestly so glad i got this recommended to me, great watch! Love all the ideas posed here.
Thank you Matthew! Please be sure to share this video with your friends if you think they'd enjoy this Locker UI update too!
This is actually sick it’s better then the new one we NEED this
Thank you so much ghoulze! We definitely do! And please be sure to share this video with others too!
what fortnite needs to bring back is the rarity background color
literally all my ideas you implemented into the new ui! I just wish it was real

Aside from ignoring save the world which would need a 5th tab separate from BR IMO this is really good!
Definitely! I don't know enough about STW to consider which cosmetics fit and which ones don't, but you are correct!

They should also add a move button for presets
Would love this idea too!

Thank you nico! I would also appreciate it if you shared this video with more users who feel the same way about the Locker UI!
The fact that the wraps are now separate from the character menu angers me because I have to change both if I want the wrap to match the skin.
This is exactly why I stopped using wraps altogether! It's too much of an annoyance to have to switch between multiple presets just to make ONE combo!
