So, I really can't wait for halo odst. I have been checking out pictures and videos, but while doing that I noticed something. The HUD is extremely visible and, to me, seems a bit intrusive. I know bungie made a different HUD on purpose to make you feel like an ODST, but i think it might be a bit much. What do you guys think?

The only reason it is extremely visible in those two pictures is because, in the first one, the dudes stamina was low and flashing. and in the second one, he had VISR on, and that outlines everything in neon lights, including the HUD.

well from the looks of the city, you will have your visor on for quite some time so that is relevant.

Most of what was on the HUD in those pictures is strictly for FireFight. And only a few Firefight maps will be dark, or so we know as of now. Anyways. I really don't think the HUD is a problem. I like it.

Techno iz Life. I'm a long time halo player and like to have fun in customs and social MM. I also like to play ranked games but only if your going to be serious, you can still have fun, and maybe even learn a thign or two.

seems ok to me. i'm kinda lookin forward to the VISR mode option. i've always wanted a halo with night vision. (or at least a setting that needs one)
