Subject: Ability to change color of HUD.

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

Do you think this would be a nice addition to customization? I would personally LOVE this option. The HUD colors of Halo 3 and ODST work great for most environments, except for 2


Avalanche and Snowbound in Halo 3

and Uplift Reserve in ODST


they just blend in with the backround too much and you can barely see your targeting retucule.


In fact why not take it one step further and allow us to change our entire HUD. If you want to have your motion tracker in the upper right corner, for instance.

or if you'd like to have it set up like H2 or CE.

i really like this idea alot. i say Yes! kind of like halo 2 when the time where you switched to an elite your hud changed purple but i would really like to have an all around option

Perception is everything.

I would love this. I hope Bungie takes it into consideration.

ya it would be cool, the funny thing is spartans have a blue HUD and a orange visor. and ODST and dark blute visor and orange HUD, juts a funny think i noticed. also if we change HUD colour then we should be able to change Visor part, like how Dare has a blue one on her recon helmet

sorta like fallout 3? thatz cool.

  • 11.07.2009 8:14 PM PDT

I said this long ago so I agree.

  • 11.07.2009 8:21 PM PDT

I definitely think you should be able to change the color of your HUD. As for the position of the items on it, that I don't know about, but I support color changing.

  • 11.07.2009 8:22 PM PDT

Message me if you want, I will try to get back as soon as possible.

See you on the forums and in the games.

Good idea. I always seem to not be able to see my HUD on Avalanche or if I'm looking over the horizon, like if I'm aiming at something in the air.

Nah I don't think that would work, because most people in FFA choose colors that fit in with their surroundings there has to be SOMETHING big orange and glowy on them to see.

A thousand times yes to color change. ODST's yellow was really really bad.

Also, some people I know are color blind, or partially color blind(IE certain colors are not so loud).

Noticed the same thing. Anyway, yes, I agree to visor customization.

Death to rank junkies.

I'm all for it.

Send me a PM of your email and I'll get you a lockerz invite. 100% legit Thx CarloMorris for pic.

Banshee Master

Absolute Annihilation

And the ability to change the color of the vizor. Don't see why we can't do any of that. I don't think it would really effect the game that much.

Almost a ghost.

Sounds like a good idea.

Can't think of any reason why it'd be a problem to add in either.

  • 11.12.2009 11:52 AM PDT

i like me...

more customization options are always good :)

you should make a poll, because so far everyone is saying yes and if bungie sees a poll with 1,000 yes's and no no's, it would really stand out. good idea btw

Like Freespace 2, you can totally customize your HUD in that.
