Subject: Johnson's HUD in Firefight

Stop being such a Jim.

Why don't you shut up?

From what I could discern from the gameplay vids, the HUD is projected unto your VISR, fitting the curvature of the screen.
Along these lines, how would Johnson's HUD look like? Because as far as I can tell he doesn't have a helmet.

I think Bungie's going for realism here.

its halo canon that the unsc use contact lenses for some of there visual enhancement. soooo jhonson has lenses. maybe

  • 07.30.2009 7:02 PM PDT

He has SUPER TECHNOLOGICAL EYES so he can see the HUD through his eyes.

thats the only reason i can think of.

Two wise young men meet at the top of a mountain and futally attempt to push each other off while the third, much older, wise man, that was first to the top, watches. After hours of struggle a victor was decided. As the victor turns to him, too tired to fight more, and the wise old man begins his climb on another hill far above the hill he recently occupied. The victor is left bewildered and lacks the energy to climb further. The wise man and the older wise man were now in their rightful places.

No they are not. He has a HUD. Now sit down. This is Bungie's statement on the matter:

Bungie
It's a -blam!- video game.

Just pretend his cigar and his hat is his replacement the helmet, I don't know, when it comes to questions like these and time line weapons, then I don't know how to respond.

I speak the truth, and truth speaks itself.
The lies disguise what you despise.
Run. Flee and be, what you've always dreamed.
What happens now won't matter later.
What you see will not be, nor what you imagine will not happen.
The end is close, so take your dose.

He's Johnson.

What other reason do you need?

It'll be exactly the same as though he was wearing a helmet. Frankly, I don't really care that much anymore. Nobody complains when the perspective goes to 3rd-person for Machine-Turrets and vehicles, but a HUD remains, so I'm no longer caring, as long as I can hear Johnson spout some humourous riddle as for where he's going to plant his foot.

What's always shrouded in darkness, and always smells of faeces?

=P

Elites in Halo 3 have nothing covering their eyes (Arbiter and default Elites), yet they have radars and shield displays. That's wack, yo, but no-one complains.

His hat bends down *Transformer style* and Johnson gets a VISR.

It's a game. Johnson doesn't have a HUD. But they still have it so it helps the player...it's just a game.
