Wouldn't it be cool if we could design our own HUD? Imagine be able to move around the radar, the shields bar, change the tint, etc.?

Here is Halo 3's HUD. Think red tint instead of blue, think shield bar at the bottom, think weapon info at the bottom left, think radar at the right. Possibly even changing the size of the components? I know it's a tiny detail, it doesn't change gameplay drastically (it might), but why not? This would only be another step at making Halo: Reach highly polished.

How about it, yes or no?

*If you agree, please state how you would organize your HUD*

EDIT: For nostalgia?

Maby chose whether u can deploy equipment like halo 3 or use visr from odst plus you could chose whether or not u wanted certain items on the hud (tickbox them) also have the choice of the compass from odst

I see it being possible on PC since you can Mod pretty much anything.

but what game do you know of on a "console", that lets you mod/move/change how its positioned i cant think of any. cant see bungie doing it, im sure they will do exactly the same for reach just like halo3, just updated, and improved.

Didn't metroids prime three have a customizable HUD?

I probably wouldn't customize it but it could be interesting.

That's the good thing. It's original. New for consoles. These days, usually the games that pull of originality well are the top games. Features define the top games now., generally, of course.

I want to change the color of the HUD like in ODST you have a yellow color. What I want is a red HUD.

It would have more use then armor permutations. It could make you more comfortable in first person view, an aesthetic that might actually make a difference. It could help you prioritize things on your HUD. Think the radar isn't as important as ammo count? Make the radar smaller, make the amount count bigger. The possibilities are endless.

How would you guys make your HUDs?

I'd have the ammo count at bottom right, right beside my weapon, I'd have grenade count top right. Radar top left, and shield bar bottom center. It would also have a red tint instead of a blue tint.

*Maybe would could also add the ability to change the side we hold our weapon with?

Maybe there could be optional "programs" for your hud, like a speed indicator while your in vehicles (in the metric system, of course, otherwise it wouldn't work) for those of us who know that we need X speed to splatter a spartan. For those who don't care about that they can cut it out. Or maybe have the option to expand the little progress thingy in the bottom right that tells you that the red team has two flag captures and the blue team has only one so perhaps you can see some of the stats of the best player on both teams to see who you need to compete with for VIP or something.

No, but I'm sure lefties would appreciate the option to change your spartan's hand orientation

Awesome ideas. The speed thing is brilliant.

Agreed, great idea! Just think of The Conduit for the Wii.

I hope we can do this as well as change the control scheme.
