Not to make this a nag fest...

In Response To: Who needs useful info on a HUD (profhalo)

: When you SHOULD use all that open space for the illegible text and symbols,
: useless blue bloom sploches and a spiderweb of bright lines. Those are so
: much more informative...

When I have played Halo 4 multiplayer, it's usually been split screen. In that mode, it's really hard to grasp the benefits of the HUD. There's so much data I don't need distracting me, I ignore it altogether. My uninformed playstyle is actually less risky compared to trying to discern what I want from the HUD as I'm getting shot at.

Perhaps I need to play more to utilize it, but I'm not a huge fan of UIs being on a learning curve like the gameplay itself.
