So what if ranked 1v1 had no attack indicators? | Forums

Berserkers everywhere!

And PKs, and Valkyries too. Dem lights be nasty, yo!

I would love to see a game mode with no HUD. Unfortunately some classes would just be a lot better than others (poor raider) so it can't really happen unless you're forced to play the same class.

The berserker lady boss in the viking campaign was by far my hardest fight in max difficulty. So hard to read without indicators. Especially because of how bad I am at raider. Ended up just cheesing it by throwing her in the fire several times.
Compared to her, the samurai campaign bosses were a joke. At least then I was using a char with deflect and fast sidesteps/ dodges.

Ranked should definitely have no indicators.

I agree, but also disagree. Ranked in general should have HUD, but it should be based on rank. Bronze-Gold should have HUD while plat-diamond should be without.

An even better idea.

Second that. She actually killed me. Only time I died in single player.

That's a good idea. Then we can removed non-ranked and not split the player base.

Some characters would clearly benefit more (a *LOT* more) from a lack of indicators (PK being the prime example), while slow attackers would suffer. That doesn't seem very appealing, no? And really, in my opinion the indicators are there to help players respond appropriately and in a timely manner, like their characters should be able to. It's more difficult to be as responsive and precise with a 3rd person perspective as opposed to 1st person (specifically over the shoulder/shooter 3rd person; side view fighters like Street Fighter or Soul Calibur never had such an issue IMO). 3rd person does allow for greater situational awareness though.
