Have I missed something, but where's the pitch radar? I need to see the positions of all the players.

Personally I don't like the new HUD at all. If it is implemented, please add the option to select the traditional UT2K3 HUD which I prefer...

Please be honest. When you don't like it say it!
I made him post it here, so you guys can bitch NOW, not when its released.
Thanks.

Nothing new to add but i agree with numbers being too big and the white bits around radar serving no purpose though they do look good.

Is it possible to add the ball locator dot thats at the top to the centre radar? That saves looking up.

-logo size will be configurable
-border will be less wide
-score centered, same for powerup bar and sprint bar

I like the idea of being able to choose between the new and default 2k3 huds
That possible?

does that mean the powerupbar will be where the score is now?
cause i like to see this bar and the direction i am shooting at the same time...

thanks for the comments guys. obviously eveyone feels the same way on the score being moved to the center.

let me better explain the middle radar... the bar that curves around the top left is the shot bar, while the one that curves around the bottom right will be the sprint bar (which will also just be gone when the server is set to no sprint)

the font and the size needs some tweaking, and i'll explore with other options and try to please everybody.

keep up the comments ;)

i dont like it at all..sorry..

you've used way too much space on my screen for such a small amount of detail..

the lines are jaggy and the graphics look unprofessional...

/me runs off having told the truth

i would encourage you to keep a minimalist idea to design...
fuction with a little bit of form is ok, but here is how i would improve it.

-change the fugly font to something that looks kinda normal.
-make the score/time smaller, for the most part you dont need to know the exact time or score... they are kept track of inside the head. it is nice to be able to reference it, but i would make it "just big enough to read" size.
-heath is important, so i guess that size is ok... but periferal vision doesn't really read digits to well... if possible the health status should be smaller as well... but could change color depending on health, or could flash slowely when you are in the "danger zone" (1 more hit will kill you)
-thin the center circle and bars, or maybe make them even more transparent. for the most part the circle really isn't important, and the meters dont have to be as thick, the only things you really need to see is a thin moving bar and maybe brighter endpoints.
