The server list gets a bit more descriptive than Minecraft did, but it still doesn’t give the user any idea as to what survival mode or otherwise means. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630559829049-KU1A15JYCQ17T7UICUFC/LeaguePlay.PNG Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out This is the UI for the “Play” menu in League of Legends. Seeing this gave me an idea of how to model the new design for the Rust main menu. Drawing inspiration from how each type of game mode has an icon and a description. It makes it clear what each mode is, however, the sub categories are not defined (Blind Pick, Draft Pick, etc..). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630560088710-434VVDNSEFURR0USBRBT/RustPlay.png Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630559639079-V2AJTHA4LIE5I9VO0QG4/MinecraftPlay.PNG Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out Minecraft was an obvious choice for the research. What I found in looking at their server selection menu, there is a list of popular or curated servers to browse through. One thing I noticed is that a majority of players use the “Direct Connect” feature to simply join the server they want to play. While this may be fine for players that have an understanding of Minecraft and are part of minecraft communities, this does not help those who have no idea of what sort of server they would like to join. There are very non-specific descriptions on many of the servers. There is also no way to tell new users if a server is a creative or survival server (or even what those words mean.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630559738816-TVMG4SRKJ29O7VQ1032N/TheForestPlay.PNG Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out The Forest is another survival game that has very little context to the servers that are listed. In order to add a description to a server, the host seems to need to add it into the title which is not the best for usability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630560790859-QHBJKYPD1T0XBT49T9LZ/PXL_20210902_040715705.jpg Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1630561414432-26NZHT80FIEQAGIOTCHT/Animation.gif Work - Rust - Server Redesign - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.thechrisharbin.com/work/civitaz monthly 0.5 2021-04-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1626881395874-SX89S50GW72FL16KO6AR/Civitaz.gif Work - Civitaz https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1620079181712-336UNDYMMHCCUD8SH45S/Kim.jpg Work - Civitaz https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1620078845878-BLSWL6IHLBRNQ7ZRLHG1/Alexander.jpg Work - Civitaz https://www.thechrisharbin.com/work/olivebranch monthly 0.5 2021-04-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1626886523878-5XG1SKSA2N9OPL04O2NS/Olivebranch.gif Work - Olivebranch https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6049198c038a851c94c44dd2/1626886622313-1L31KNT5P0KWZD7F234I/OBUIWireframe.PNG Work - Olivebranch
