7th anniversary UI meta-issue #570

@BenLubar

Description

@BenLubar

Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop's user interface is aging, and some parts are faring worse than others. For the 7th anniversary, we intend to redesign parts of the user interface to solve problems new players face with not knowing how to interact with the game and veteran players with the game giving incomplete, incorrect, or irrelevant information.

This issue is for planning what we need to work on, and then linking to the issue for that specific thing being worked on.

Improvements

  • Translatable disconnect reasons
  • Multiple medal slots
  • Make closed captions not look like they're from 1998

Revamps

  • Main Menu
  • Collections/Inventory
  • Options
  • Server/Lobby Browser
  • Leaderboards/Stats/Achievements
  • Briefing: New briefing layout #520
  • HUD

To consider

  • AS2k4 themed UI option
  • Option to use the UI that existed prior to this change
  • Adjustable layout? (That is, fine-grained settings like Dota 2's "minimap on right")
