ESF needs a new hud. We've had this one for some time now (1.0, 1.1, 1.2.x). Its nothing major, but it would be nice to have a new one.

Yea... that would be all fine and good, but you can only edit the colors / text of the hud...

How much more informative can you get? o_O The latitude and longitude of your character...yea you're right, the new huds should have a stock ticker :p

Simple idea, maybe a shiny new hud will be in 1.3 D:

i'd like to see on the hud a portrait of your character having three facial expressions. one for idle, one for attack and receiving damage, and one for dying. if there's going to be taunts, one smiling.

it will require coding.. so when you're doing whatever you have the portrait. when your health goes down or when you shoot an attack, the portrait changes to the angry opened mouth picture. when you die, the portrait switches to your face with the eyes closed with bruises. if there are taunts, your portrait has you smiling while the taunt plays. so pictures will be queued to show when a certain event happens.. i dont think it'll be that hard to do

*Goes through a series of flashbacks from Doom...*

That would be a great idea. I dunno why no game besides Doom has ever done that though.

Well, if I'm not mistaken, some effects such as shake and tilt will also effect the hud. An animated HUD would be cool tho, with some sparks around it when you turns ssj or something. You know, the little details. However, I vote for a makeover as well.

Yes! The facial expressions. Types of facial expressions,
1) Idle
2) Swoop
3) Charging beams
4) Attacking
5) Taking damage
6) Dead
7) Transforming
8) After transformed, hairstyle and face changes.
9) Power up
10) Turbo Aura

Not only this few facial expressions. I think this will be great.

HP 100% - Normal face
HP 75% - Warmed up face
HP 40% - Bruises
HP 10% - Blood over face + Bruises
HP 0% - Eyes closed with Blood + Bruises all over face.

Well, I don't think characters faces would work out to well. You have to remember that these are half life models, there faces won't be to pretty..

Well the hud could be upgraded, but i suggested before a better scouter, with incomming beams and blast on it, colo coded power levels, zoom in/out function, and how high/low the person is.

Anybody ever play that DBZ game for PS1... the Japanese one. Not Ultimate Battle 22 or Final Bout but the third one. In that, depending on what is happening, the face next to your health bar changes

instead of the portrait, would it be better to have a small pip screen by the hud, where a camera view of the face is always showing? when you power up, you can see their mouths move, when they die you can see them spin around and fall

Guys... the face thing is a bad idea. These are half-life 1 models, it wouldn't look to good.
