From a GUI perspective this took a turn for the worst. We used to be able to see the Mod Slot Name, Mode Name and Stats, but now, as the OP states, we get zero information until we enter into the modding screen. I know mods took a massive nerf and simplification but it's still useful information to have.
I mean its already showing a power bar, would it be that much harder for it to just show exactly what it is instead of misc bar?
Begin able to sort by type would be a pretty big improvement as well.
Some mods can go into some slots but not others? its really confusing, begin able to know if something is better right off the bat should be how it is.
Not " oh got a new mod, lemme take 10min to compare to all my existing mods before i use"
