    PC HUD and ONLY PC.

    I tried a search for what is happening to the PC HUD and the search engine is very stupid ( and I did ask in various ways but no avail ). I did other searches and all I can come up with is a "http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...imersion-level" console link. I really would like some truthful help here.
    As you can see here I am NOT one bit interested in "console" and I never will be.

    I've a life and can not be around this forum every day and I would appreciate some level headed information on the PC HUD...NOT multi player either.

    Would like some knowledgeable information here please.

    Yeah I know its on almost every thread or so I expect someone to say. ( easy way out.)

    DEVS/Moderator would you please move this post/thread to Far Cry 3 PC discussion form?

    I'm REALLY not sure how I got into this Console forum.

    First off, we brought in a few enhancements to the game settings and options:
    • Keyboard key bindings are fully customizable
    • The reticle, aiming assistance, and enemies tagging can be disabled for increased realism.
    • Field of View (FOV) can be adjusted to fit your screen and preferences.

    None of that really addresses the HUD, or rather, not the parts that concern most people.

    The ability to turn off the reticle was always known. Aiming assistance is just auto-aim, which I imagine is enabled on consoles by default, to assist in aiming with a gamepad (and doesn't contribute to HUD clutter). And the tagging only applies to pointing a weapon at a nearby enemy (tagging with the camera cannot be disabled).

    Saying that the above "increases realism", when there are still glowing bodies, objective markers, constant popup message boxes and giant honking arrows pointing out the enemies, is frankly a joke. Really losing patience with this issue.
