Just goes to show how completely out of touch the developers are. They clearly don't play their own game if they think this is a good change.The base UI player names are trash, this was a work-around for their garbage design and they remove it without fixing the reason people used this CVar in the first place.Revert this change Blizzard.
I always keep friendly names off, so this doesn't affect me, but if I did show names, I'd be annoyed. Names only should not be removed, but that's stating an objective and obvious fact.
...People play with names turned on?
friendly nameplates is clutter. people who actually want and use them boggles my mind.
Did they do this to disable any cheese strats players may have been using like an old addon that used world markers / highlighters to make positioning and moving almost automated?
I had only friendly names (title and guild name also outside of instances) enabled with no bars and big enough font to read in 69% scaled UI; and in the instances only the names of characters being visible before the maintenance.I heard these streamers talking how impossible it is to get rid of nameplates etc. like this article says.After the patch done and doing the raid with guild at evening, i saw no difference to my UI. People not knowing how to set up their UI and unaware of default settings shouldnt be a source... These raiders disabled few addons for few hours and immediately caused panic lol
looks like blizz cant do anything proper.....every time they made something, just makes the game worst jesus ..
Someone at blizz must be trolling. They are even on my pets in pet battles.
Addon "DF Friendly Nameplates" works with forbidden nameplates and can modify friendly nameplates in raids and dungeons. So you can use this addon and disable Health bar and Cast bars from friendly nameplates in raid :)
