    Ubisoft You So Sneaky! (Patch 1.8.0)

    Ubi you sneaky little...

    They added some additional HUD toggles and fixes (THANK YOU DEV TEAM!!!) to Patch 1.8.0 and didn't announce them.

    Separate Camera Tagging toggle, Disable Loot Animations toggle and CO-OP Friendly Fire toggle:

    Remove World Icons toggle (those annoying yellow and white arrows, etc. that appear in your first person view):

    Fixed bug where objective distance would not up date if minimap was off.

    Fixed some bugs related to turning HUD off and on with F11.

    Nice!

    THANK YOU UBISOFT DEV TEAM!

    PS - If you find bugs SUBMIT THEM TO SUPPORT so the developers can be alerted to them. Do not expect that posting a complaint randomly on the forum will automatically get your bug/glitch/problem in front of the right eyes.

    Wonder if they'll ever have the numerous on screen prompts optional.

    It would be great if they did this and also the option to remove flashing from objects if desired.

    I am going to submit a support ticket for both of these. You should as well.

    (Not even kidding - these kinds of suggestions need to be added to the official development pipeline or they are likely to continue to go unnoticed and unconsidered.)

    Thanks for this feedback. We'll make sure that it's passed onto the development team .

    Would you be so kind so as to pass them the request that they get round to simply adding FOV control support to 21:9 resolutions, the only aspect ratio with apparently disabled FOV control!? It's February and I have been unable to play this game since December when I upgraded my monitor to a 21:9. It's seriously unplayable as it is now.

    Umm nope. Eyefinity/surround also lacks FOV control. And also has black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.

    I've comeback to FC4 after being absent for a little while and I downloaded the 1.8 patch. So far, it seems that the performance is better, and all these small features that have been mentioned above is indeed cool. I'm freaking glad, GLAD they finally fixed that annoying issue of having to tick off the filters on the map over and over again because they couldn't be saved.
