Re: Explaining HUD LUV

In Response To: Explaining HUD LUV (nillapuddin) : theres also no doubt in my mind that other people read your posts and : completely agree with you beyond the shadow of a doubt, they want that out : of body experience, not in someone elses body experience That's not it at all. I want that experience, I just don't want stuff blocking my vision or distracting me. : Its completely fine that you hold that opinion, however in MY opinion I just : feel like it adds sooooo much to the people who want that, and does not : really take away much from the people who dont, you wont see it in MP or : SPops, its exclusive to the MC as a solidifying element to not just make : you ride along with the Master Chief, but experience the story as if you : were him The blue haze (and the lines) are also in multiplayer, it's just toned down a little bit and lacks the helmet pieces. I don't want that blue haze messing with the color, brightness, and sharpness of parts of my view. : I wish it were in all game modes, but I completely understand that taking : away even the slightest of slight amounts of screen real estate in : competitive MP is a no-no That's a general rule of HUD design, that's a general rule of designing anything for a screen. : *hopefully i hit on everything I wanted to say, Im busting out a design : tonight so I keep putting this in the background and add little bits as I : hit a block, hopefully this will help you understand more of the : perspective of someone who loves the design, even if you continue to : dislike it, which you certainly can* It seems like it really is the whole "in the helmet" thing, which is what I thought. I've only worn a helmet a few times and I didn't think it was awful but I didn't particularly enjoy it either. To have the visual of a helmet without feeling it, the texture or pressure or weight or anything, does nothing for me. Who says he's just looking through the visor anyway? What about this vague optics system that's part of the suit? The small-visored helmets we've seen rely on the fact that a few cameras put into a small space can give you a very good view, so not do that with the standard Mjolnir Mark VI helmet? It might seem like bringing up small stuff, but I'll ask you this: if the Chief is just looking through a visor, how does he zoom in (which I'm pretty sure is a canon ability of Mjolnir)?

You cannot fall off the floor.
