Q: Vehicle HUD

scOOper · 2003-04-25, 01:12 PM

Hi ppl

Just a simple :o question I'd really like to know the answer to, is there a l33t HUD for mosquito's, reavers, tanks etc?
I've seen those those malvision movies (teh rOxOr) and there where no HUDs in it, but maybe he/she just turned 'em off.

Btw, I'm new to the forum

Lo all!

Their aren't any vehicle HUDs. But in ground vehicles, you get a blocky looking dashboard... Looks like something form a racing or flying game from a Commodore game... plainly colored blocks of various sizes and some circles too.

Ummm... I don't know what Urth is talking about, but he was right about one thing. Their isn't a HUD for the flying vehicles YET. Maybe they will add this later. The ground vehicles have pretty detailed insides.

Hey Talon,

Tis Sap. For me the inside of the marauder is hazy and colored blocks and circles. Every setting is at high for me. Runs perfectly fine, although I'd like more ram, but I see colored blocks and circles with a hazy speedometer that has no animation... I'd take a screen, but we don't have access right now, and I'd have to host it somewhere, to which I have no access to. So... meh. I can e-mail a picture later then... But... I'm SOL for showing what I mean. *Goes to look at the media pages*

Do these HUDs come with any actual game information, or are they just a "dumb dashboard"? If the latter is the case - can one turn them off?

Can you spend your cert points to get fuzzy dice?

No one seems to like to take pictures of vehicle cockpits... I found a couple...

Although they don't show what I've seen in a marauder, they get the point across that their isn't much action with the vehicle displays (Dashboards).

If i'm a driver of a vehicle that doesn't have a gun, i always drive in 3rd person (except galaxy)
