Changing the "Killing Chat"

Got a great new idea for the game?

Changing the "Killing Chat"

Postby Dblz » Mon Feb 06, 2012 1:17 am

I think that the killing chat ( Who killed who and how on the top left of the screen ) could be improved to be more clear :

-Make it on middle-top Left of the screen ( Like Counter Strike for example)
-Change the "(rifle)" "(smg)" "(headshot)" ... to little signs between colored player names that represent weapons and headshot ( In that way you can know the weapon used by the one who make headshots ) .
-Make a square around your kills or make the letter bigger. ( No more Red color )
-Show Teamkill

I make a example ( Sorry for crappy Drawing :S )

I like the red text so that if i am focusing on lining up on a guy, i dont have to completely redirect my attention the the top left of the screen to know if i killed him. But that is really only for long range semi players like me. I just think that red text is easier to spot out of the corner of your eye.

Yes we can keep the red text too , but i think pure texts informations are less clear than Icons or Logos. Anyway adding TeamKills ( TK's ) should be great !

Personally, I'd appreciate changing the text size, color, or somehow making it higher-contrast (outline, shadow, etc.). I can only see the blue text currently if I'm looking at something dark, and I can't read the green or red text most of the time.

For team killing it should show a knife in someones back. In addition head shots should simply show a head with a bullet/tracer through it to make it smaller, especially considering how all the weapons are capable of getting one.

Although I like this idea

Your name should still be in red, and headshots should not be mentioned as its not to important, and makes it confusing to identify aimbots.

Yes maybe the name should stay in red , but that's not cool for modding if someone want a red team ...

For the guns , a draw them with MSpaint on about 30 seconds each..

Yes that's right , wall the weapons can get headshot but it's always fun to know if someone headshot a lot or stuff like that.
I agree for the knife in someones back.

Don't understand why headshots make it confusing to check aimbot ...

Yeah, the chat needs some improvements. As it is, it's kind of hard on my eyes, and just a little hard to know whats going on. Team specific name colors would really help!

The suggestion is about personal preference, and I prefer text...

I don't think I need to start making up reasoning to support a personal preference, it is enough for me just to say that I prefer it.

I don't like example one, it should just be the head. I do like the idea of pictures as its faster than reading.
ARGUING FTW, until I start losing -_-
