Why can't you see other gamer cards of other players in lobby on Origin like on X-Box and PS? Or is this a well hidden feature? Communication with other players is so weak on Origin.

Not for me, no, it is not Origin. It is Mgamerz who has a mixing which shows what you are playing. Can get it from me3tweaks. So, whoever uses it, will have it shown.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's horrible. Especially since I game a lot on HDTV.. the resolution and scaling doesn't work like the rest of Windows (I think it's using QT).

I should have known better, what are the odds that EA would actually add a good feature to Origin.

Man, the new Origin is so bad. Can't minimze friends list. In game notifications take a massive chunk of the screen. ... Oh and the pug game I just had was horrible. And so on. So if you're one of the lucky ones without this new Origin. Don't update.

The new origin got pushed to my laptop this morning and it's a hideous, unusable pile of shit. Hope to hell I have origin updates disabled on my gaming PC, because if not and it forces an update on that machine I'm basically just going to uninstall the program until they fix it.

Y'know the steam layout has been the same for years and they haven't seen a need to change it. Origin's lay out was not a problem. If it isn't broken don't fix it.

I'm butthurt

Why would you build a platform geared towards multiplayer games where a message can't reach your friends while they are playing? Won't that be the first priority to fix? Seriously, I don't understand...

It's the other way around, the message is GUARANTEED to reach your friends because it takes them out of the game they are playing to make sure they see it

Well Origin doesn't scale to different resolutions (see my 720p pic. But this includes notification mgs too that's not pictured), can't separate friend chat window from origin window (again, see 720 pic. But friend list is in it's own window that can be still separated at least), it's always telling me I can search the web with Origin when I start ME3mp (as if I'd use that over Google Chrome), apparently if you play in fullscreen you get kicked out of the game to see chat msg (SMR, use windowed mode as a workaround), still can't see gamer cards (as a result online communications is still crap and mute city compared to others like XBL, PSN, Steam), shittier layout, etc.
