Does the Halo HUD need to be updated for Chief or removed?

As the poster on this topic. I would say that he needs a more virtual HUD system to operate in. Halo 3’s HUD could look much better in Halo 4. But that’s just me, tell me what installations you think should be added, if you have any ideas in mind. Post 'em up. If not, just say so.

Frankie confirmed there would be HUD changes, like always.

I’d like to see an ARG looking HUD.

Wait whats wrong with the HUD? To me its been refined throughout the games and the Reach HUD is pretty darn good. I can’t imagine it changing much for H4.

I wish we could change the color

I liked Halo 3’s way better. Just looks a bit cleaner.

I would like a bit darker toned HUD! Maybe use the Atlas mapping tool in game as well
Since his suit has changed the HUD should be altered as well.

I hope the HUD does experience some changes. The Halo 3 HUD is great, but I always enjoy having something different from one game to another. Halo Reach’s HUD was too similar to Halo 3’s. If anything, it should have resembled Halo 1’s…

It’ll change.

Personally I would like to be able to pick what color our HUD is, makes it easier for split screen coop, also gives you a more personal feel to your HUD.

(only on if you are scopeing) an idea i have is that what if on all of the enemys heads there would be a read dot or a very small recticle and if you lined up the huds recticle with that and fired it would be an instant death to the enemy, this should NOT be included in multiplayer…well you could add it as long as it wasnt an instant kill. any thoughts?

Nah, I would much rather see a scope that has the same look and feel as the VISR from halo 3 ODST. I wouldn’t put red dots on every target’s heads, I would just have it highlight none shielded/armored areas on the target, that would be more useful.

Only difference being is that you can see through visor.

I like this idea, gives the hud a more realistic feel.

So let me get this straight, you’re saying that you should see the inside of the helmet in the game? Wouldn’t that cause problems due to blocking out your vision? I, as well as many other fans would definitely hate that…

Which reminds me, they should bring back the visor outline like in Halo 3 and ODST, made the game a lot more interesting to look at.

Seeing the ideas coming from this thread, I am so glad the forum community is not making Halo 4. Do your thing, 343i!

Take Reaches HUD, Add in the Visor outline overlay that Halo 3 had.

they should keep the shield and health bars from reach becuase in halo 3 it was bullshite

That link is absolutely horrific IMO.

There is no canonical reason for health packs and a health bar past halo 1. therefore, its not needed.
