I have a little suggestion to make;
i always like to disable certain HUD elements on my shooter games, namely the Crosshair, Stamina Bars, Health Bars, Ammo counters and such. For me it makes for a much more immersive feeling when i dont exactly know how much health i have left or how many bullets are left in my mag / i have in total.
I am not saying to remove that infos permanently, just to have the option to enable and disable those elements in the options menu.
I love to play single player but I find the compass and crosshair a little immersion breaking, any change of adding a setting to disable them? What do you guys think?
To add to that: I’d personally like to see an option for a “Far Cry 2”-style HUD (which is, imho, one of the best HUD’s ever created).
It simply fades out after a couple of seconds and only re-appears when taking damage or when an inventory related key is pressed (fire/reload/swap weapon/eat medkit, etc) after which it fades out again.
That gives the immersion when just wandering around/observing/planning but also gives the needed information when stuff hits the fan or when you ask for it.
So why not have 3 options for the HUD:
On
Fading (preferably with a configurable fade out delay and fade out duration)
Off
Of course it would be perfect if these three styles could be chosen separately for different elements of the HUD. That way you can completely customise the HUD to your liking.
I would like to produce some videos for my friends and maybe a little machinima but the issue is the HUD in the way and camera mode being static.
Would it be possible for the Devs to add a spectator mode?
A really basic flight mechanic that goes from ground level to about the height of a church bell, invisible to other players unless gamertag is turned on. Cannot pass through terrain or objects but can open unlocked doors (to sort of prevent abuse).
It could take a player slot (so only 3 active players and 1 spectator)
Alternatively a no-Hud mode. so there can be a cameraman following a player.
One of my favourite youtube channels is Neebs Gaming and I would love to do something like their Ark series but with GZ. I think there is alot of potential to create some great content with the game.
