Enemy names.. Hamma knows

[Airlift]

I have a question for all those of you who have previewed the game Hamma...

Can you see the names of your enemies floating above their heads, or only after one of you kills the other?

[Hamma]

You cannot see people's names - I think advanced targeting shows the names however. (i am not sure on this)

[Airlift]

hooray, thanks

[Delos]

so you only see names of people from your faction?

[Camping Carl]

yes

[�io]

Yeah you only see names of people on your side but if you have advanced targeting yeah you can see enemy names and health.

We've made a recent change where you can see the names of enemies also when they are within a short range. That lets you get to know the names of your enemies better...which makes it more fun to hate them. :D

Well at the very least it'll be easier to stalk Hamma now :D

:rofl: :lol:

I think I'd prefer to not be able to see them, as it makes it harder for people to get together outside the game mechanics and team up across factions or (worse still) betray their own empire for friends in another faction. I don't think it will be an extremely widespread problem, but I'm concerned that it may be a bigger issue if players can easily identify each other in the game.

That's something that could always be changed in a patch tho, so it doesn't matter too much I guess.

Well if said traitors have the means to find themselves close enough to see the names than they already have the means to cheat their empire.

pardon the test but, TEST

I'm all for it. Hopefully, you'll be able to see outfit names too.

Fear us Shinobi. :D

I like the idea of seeing enemy names... a lot of times i have friends that are on opposite sides and its just good to be able to see who they are, and know its them while you kicking their booty!

:love:
