Well Here is the General IDEA. It would Be a 3D self moving HUD..Kinda like the Metroid one. I have played a Few games with that kind of HUD and it just made the gameplay more fun.

the 3d part, is part of the fp model for the guns. the only hud part thats really a hud, is the shield meter, ammo meter, and radar

I kinda like that idea. Its not every day someone comes by and has a HUD idea. I hope it actually takes off.

I like the existing HUD just the way it is.

hi i know first post in a while but whatever
halo 1's hud has physical flaws. not just the design but actual flaws to it.the meters for example, they drain with this grainy effect |

It would be pretty cool if someone made it so that if you held down Q or C, the radar will appear, then when you stop, it will fade away. Probably not possible though.

You don't really need photoshop for this. It's just a rough idea.

how he wrote in the words and how much space he used or what program he used to show u this idea is entirely, not relevant; focus more on the idea itself rather than point out non important flaws o.O

Think gameplay wise first the recticle sits in the center of the screen along with the weapon. then you garble up the center of the screen with everything. how do you expect to play if you can't even see whats happening in front of you?

i like this idea because everyone just takes the halo2 HUD and either cusomizes it to be extremely annoying or just uses a plain normal HUD i want something differnt<uber bad spellmanship. oh at guy abuv me like every other person has said its a roughdraft and the minor flaws will be fixed
my cousins made fun of me for playing with legos at the age of 12 im 15 and still play with them. LEGOS OWN MEGABLOKS. Edited by iizahsum on Jul 3, 2008 at 04:52 PM |
