I was thinking about this last night before going to bed (I think about this game far too much) so I'm glad a thread was finally started on it. We haven't quite picked the carcass of that demo clean just yet. lol
Personally, I like having the pop ups on there for a couple reasons, but the primary one is to instantly confirm the kill. I don't know about you guys, but during the reaver portion, due to the amount of smoke kicked up, it was near impossible for me to tell if the tank was destroyed or not. Sure, there can be a kill spam like in PS1, but I like the option of keeping my eyes forward and not looking around a screen when I'm flying over 100 mph 20 feet off the ground.
Now, they can either remove all the smoke so you can see the damage easier, but I thought all that smoke and fire was pretty damn cool, so I don't like that solution. Or they can keep the pop ups in.
I think it would be insanely easy for them to make those on screen pop ups optional though, and the devs should do that for all the people that want a cleaner display. Hopefully this will be one of the many options for a customizable interface. These devs do love their customization.
