Anyone remember that thing from Reach? Yes, but you probably didn’t care, and that’s ok. But I do miss the thing, me and my friends made it a useful tool during matches, raids, exploring, building maps, etc. it would be a nice little thing to see it come back in future titles. What do you think?
I don’t remember “the compass”.
i kind of miss it. it helped with callouts especially since there arnt x’s right now.

That thing above the shield indicator is what I’m talking about.
The AR still has one
> The AR still has one
It’s not the same though, the one in the HUD was more specific and easier for call outs… Plus, not everyone is going to be using AR’s.
I really liked the compass, it made sense and it made call outs and such easier on maps.

Not once have I ever heard someone using it for call outs. I’m pretty sure it was just for aesthetics. Especially the elite version, where it was just a bunch of symbols.

Once you learned the sangheili version, it is actually just as easy to use. And like I said, me and my friends used it for call outs.
I never used it in Reach, and now that you said it, it would’ve been great and easy for callouts. Why did I never use that compass? Man, missed opportunities, I tell you.
I don’t see why it shouldn’t be in. Halo 4’s HUD is used for quite a few things, so I don’t see why a compass couldn’t hurt.
Next time I’m on Reach (which will be quite a while, and even then, only in Invasion), I’ll definitely use it. Man, why didn’t I use that thing 2 years ago?
