New In-Game Topbar

I think it would make a difference if we took away the big white X. It needs to have a consistent shape, and color.

Our game supports emotes but this new button ruins our UI space.

It looks like we will need to disable Roblox emotes and implement our own UI via an emergency patch.

Edit: Looks like this might not be possible with current APIs


This update has forced us to remove emote support from our game.

I agree, but I think the least they could do it make it round. I also think they should modernize the chat, I dont think it fits with the new topbar.

Indeed, this would help. It may reduce the complaints.

The new topbar looks very off with the black backgrounds like many people have been saying. The current menu also completely clashes with the new topbar.

This is my suggestion on how the new UI could look like.

More or less like this, but more polished of course (I had no time to make a better image)

I Wand to just say than the the way than the topbar and the context menu it the side is very weird. Personaly i suggest a design like this:


for me this feels more logical and less empty.

also i can’t help but notice than the topbar is stored on its own gui so i expect this is a test

As usual, I have two major gripes:

  • the logo stands out with its gradient, and feels like more a watermark than anything else. (Should’ve kept the hamburger icon
 :man_facepalming:)

  • the removal of the username near the health bar kinda makes the top bar feel empty.

Other than that I have not much anything else to say (I’ll probably use my own health bar, or try to make a mockup of the older one).

I see it, it’s applied. I don’t really like the style of the new one because I feel like it’s a staple the roblox client, also it makes it feel empty.

The context menu button is not centered with the leadeboard

However, it is aligned with the menu itself

I really don’t like how it is like that, and think that the button should be aligned with the leaderboard

Adding onto that, there is some space left of the roblox icon that

I think we should shift the roblox and chat buttons left, and the context menu button right

I absolutely love that the top right of the screen is completely freed up when you turn off the Leaderboard, Backpack, and Emotes!! :grin: Losing 160 pixels of horizontal space off the top right corner for your account name and 13+ status was pretty devastating when trying to make nice mobile UI.

When I spam the ESC key while I changed a team it seems like the Team Change message moved on the bottom.

The username was more annoying than everything imo and yes i do agree with the not fitting gradient on the roblox icon.

I have just received the update. The overview is that I am kinda sad to see the old UI go that I have been using for 6 years now.

It looks like the buttons are positioned at the bottom of the topbar

Not sure if this is intentional, but when pressing the new menu icon or escape, the menu doesnt look like what it was shown to be in pics posted by players who were able to be in the a/b testing list.

Pic from @Ologist:

Pic of the actual menu now:


Not sure if the reason why its still like this is if they are releasing it later on in the future or they scraped the idea of redoing the whole menu.

It also is like this on mobile too.

The updates are rolling out seperately. You should receive it at a later date. I have not got the new escape menu either.

Some players got the test for the exit menu

they changed it again
 (seen below)

The other buttons seen below:

The new topbar just doesn’t feel right or look fitting.

EDIT: Please allow the black background of the Roblox Logo to be removed and also I think the Logo should be a solid color (with editable shadow) (possibly changeable color with a script?) instead of the gradient as it doesn’t fit with all game themes and interrupts the user interface in some.
