Customizable Crosshairs?

RNFB · 2012-03-16, 04:08 PM

One of my favorite FPS games of all time, Fortress Forever, had a cool feature where you could build your own crosshairs for each gun.

I think PS2 should incorporate something similar, and apply it to reflex sights as well

The way it worked was simple: You would choose a specific gun to make a crosshair for (or give it your "global" crosshair). You would then pick two shapes, RGBA values and size. And that's it! Really simple.

A lot of the Source engine games have this option, and Unreal Tournament 2k4 did as well. I'd be all for this, or at the very least an RGB option for crosshairs. With all the different colors going on its hard to just have one color that works for everything, so that would definitely be a plus.

It'd be nice to be able to change their shape and colors. Sometimes I have issues seeing my crosshairs in many games, not just Planetside. Not sure if it's because I'm colorblind or the color they used was badly chosen.

Personally I would like to have support for fully customizable UIs.

It'd be nice to be able to change your crosshairs color at the very least. I always had difficulty seeing my crosshair was when I was on Ceryshen or Esamir. Or if I was flying, it would be pretty tough to make out where your crosshair was.

I had this idea a while back and forgot to ever bring it up. I remember a modded crosshair I used to use for SoF2 that was a small cluster of four of five dots, which I loved. Crosshair options would be great, but custom crosshairs would be greater.

During the GDC demo the Reaver HUD was at times hard to see. Could have been the monitor/camera/angle, but in any case it would be nice if the HUD color was toggleable between light and dark with the press of a key

Give us limited default styles and a limited colour palette. Then you can sell other shapes (smiley) and other colors options.

Do it soe

I'm sure they have already thought about this guys. It's not a new concept by any means.

The only game I've seen really extensive customization, though, is Fortress Forever. Any other "customization" I've seen was picking 1 of 4 shapes, a size, and a color.

And I've NEVER seen custom reflex sights

This seems like the perfect customization option to either charge for, or give as unlocks.
