Over the years in halo games the HUD always changes from each game.

halo 1 Hud http://media.photobucket.com/image/halo%20HUD/Ramosnumber1/ha lowhatisthis.jpg

halo 2 http://img184.imageshack.us/i/tutorialpic1rj1.png/#q=halo 2 HUD

The first two are very simple and don't make it look like you are wearing a helment like halo 3 and odst.

halo 3 http://xbox360media.ign.com/xbox360/image/article/813/813197/ halo-3-20070816054325865.jpg This one has a thin outline of a helment.

halo 3 odst http://360.kombo.com/images/media/H3ODST_Campaign_1stPersonVI SR02.jpg This one gives you an "in helment" viewpont.

Another game with a good in game helment view is star wars republic commando. http://www.aoaforums.com/frontpage/images/stories/Articles/20 0504/swrc/republic_commando.jpg This game does a really good job of the being from the players point of view.

So what do you think which HUD is best. I think the odst in helment view (except spartan helment) should be in reach because it makes it more through the eyes of the player. Also I think the game should be in first person only discuss.

EDIT: by helment I mean HUD and yes i know i ment to put what helment is better for the poll

halo ce "HELMENT"

I will be there to answer your questions! No matter how obvious or stupid they may be, don't be afraid to ask. It'll pay off in the long haul.

Hated ODST's maybe if it wasn't for that red screen whenever you get shot.

I have to say Halo 3's HUD.

I feel it's simple, the shield bar is a good size.

Halo CE gave you a clear picture of your surroundings, but the sheild bar was too unnoticable.

Well i think the HUD's have been getting only better through the years.

there is no "best" helmet, thay are all good for some thing, it is just opinion, so useless thread. (no offence)


Well that is true so your right there is no "best" helment but i just wanted to see what other people thought.

I love the simplicity of HCE's. There's not a lot to confuse you. Not saying H3 or ODST's HUDS are confusing, just saying in H1 you look and don't have to search/memorize where things are located.

halo reach helment is awesome

  • 11.12.2009 6:55 PM PDT

-I was here

what's a "helment"?

anyway... halo CE... it was the most simplistic and I don't like having my HUD cluttering my vision.

  • 11.12.2009 7:00 PM PDT

I personally liked the layout of the Halo 1 hud, but how the republic commando one shows that actual helmet is pretty cool.

  • 11.13.2009 1:46 PM PDT

Halo 3 hud is the best. in my opinion of course
i like where the health bar is, its in perfect sight but doesnt get in the way. odst red screen is annoying, esspecially if implemented in halo Reach Multiplayer. I think it would be pretty sick if they changed HUD for each helm, so people could choose where they like there radar health ammo etc. plus variety is nice.

  • 11.13.2009 2:03 PM PDT

Yeah, I love the shield bar in halo 3. . . so, that one.

  • 11.13.2009 2:19 PM PDT

the halo 2 hud has to be my favorite

  • 11.13.2009 2:44 PM PDT

Aye.

The best HUD was, without a shadow of a doubt Halo 3's. CE's graphics look too cheesy. H2 was a nice evolution of H1 but the shield bar was too small and too hard to notice unless you have one eye fixed on the motion tracker, with no easy way to increase the visibility of the shield bar.

And a thousand bombastic words can't describe how bloody awful the Star Wars HUD looks.
