In Response To: Yeah! (DarkSim)

: I've thought a lot about that. Imagine going in to the HUD control center
: with a blank HUD. You have a list of objects to choose from. You can drag
: them anywhere on the screen. You can scale them to any size and set their
: opacity as well.

: If you think the radar is really important, you could make it take up your
: whole screen and be 90% opaque. You could hide everything to take HUDless
: screenshots. You could make everything incredibly small and out of the way
: if you have HDTV.

: You should be able to save different presets of HUDS, and map them to the
: d-pad (if it's not in use still) as shortcuts. So when you're being
: stealthy, you can bring up the big radar setting, or when you're brawling
: you could make your shield and ammo really big.

: I don't if it'd be completely worth the effort, as it would only change
: things minorly, but if they have the time, they should do that.

One of our Alpha participants suggested a very similar thing. Of course, we're too far along now to make any major system-wide changes like this, but I'll keep this in mind for whatever we decide to do next. (OMG! Confirmed! Bungie will do something after they're done with Halo 3!!11!)

On a personal note Mrs. Otto and the Ottlings are at home, still without power. At this moment, it looks like some of us at Bungie that live in east King County(myself included) may spend Christmas weekend without power, Xbox Live and baked goods :(

If any of you happen to work at Puget Sound Energy, have the ability to influence restoration priorities and have a weakness for Bungie related bribery, please let me know. ;P
