This is a problem, specially in the next years when even higher resolutions will come...1080p already is not the best resolution to play this game, after 1 or 2 hours i get blind....
I guess if there is a fan with good graphic design skills, that is able to redo the interface as it is but higher res. will be awesome.
P.S. Btw actually zooming in game is not that bad, only at max is pretty bad.
Issue is not only in HnH.
It's basically in all applications as well.
Installers look horrible, so do everything else. I have experience from high dpi screens and I don't recommend anyone to buy them. Its not worth it, yet. (Except if all you do with it is browse sites like youtube, as in browser scaling works well on most big sites)

Not sure what you mean...maybe i explained myself wrong, i mean that at 1080p evreything is too small, hard to read, etc...while playing at lower resolutions is much better

The physical pixel density is the key factor, a high resolution isn't the problem when the screen is big enough.

The client needs the option to enlarge (scale) the UI, be it only by full factors of 2x, 3x, 4x (so we won't have aliasing artifacts on the bitmaps). We have 2016, this isn't rocket science anymore...
