Hey Bungie Why Did You Change the HUD? New one look better, can you change it in MP to the new one?

I received Recon on 7/7/09 for achieving one of the secret metrics. I believe it was for playing in the very first game though.

But for anyone with Recon you should check out the group We Are Reconnaissance. W.A.R. is a haven for people with the Recon permutation.

I really doubt it will be confusing for anyone with a brain.

The two HUDs are on two different disks, so I see no problem.

In multiplayer, you play as a Spartan.

In ODST's Campaign, you play as an ODST.

The HUDs need to be different to suit the aesthetical differences in the two different helmets (yes, they could've made different HUDs for the different perms in multiplayer, but they wanted that to be balanced. Campaign doesn't need that same balance).

Because spartans and ODST's are different and they have different huds.

Unless you're completely braindead, it shouldn't be hard to note whether the grenades are at the top of the HUD or the bottom.

Drink up baby, stay up all night.
With the things you could do, you won't but you might.
The potential you'll be, but you'll never see.
The promises you'll only make.

Hey Bungie Why Did You Change the HUD? it is going to get confusing beacause in MP you will have spartan HUD. Why change the layout? can you change it in MP to the new one?

Oh please.
Is it hard for you to adapt to a new HUD? Sure it'll take sometime to get used to, but after... What? 30 seconds and you'll get used to the new one.

Anyway, Halo: CE, Halo 2 and Halo 3 all had different HUDs.
So does every other game.

Two makes there more than speakers.

Because they aren't wearing spartan helmits.
