Inclusion of degrees in this presentation is great! Would still like to see all compass orientaions represnted somehow, preferably on mini tac. Would that be too much clutter?

Interesting. Someone refresh me, did the Plasma Rifle always have a 50 round magazine?

The Militia AR has 48.
I am assuming that's what he's using.

Yes, I have so many BPO's of the AR, I don't remember the last time I used a militia variant lol

Soooo is the bullet stuff on the side of the ammo counter an indication of fire mode? Are we going to be able to change that in Legion

I believe it has always been there?

Assume this compass can be interfered with via EW modules? perhaps it also doesnt work on certain planets due to interference / no magnetic fields (if powered that way)
How about making this a module that has to be setup as the match starts to enable certain HUD devices / widgets and can be attacked by cloakers who can disable certain HUD functions either by EW grenades or killing a planted device acting as an intel uplink?
(how about eve players deploying satellites in orbit for certain intel features?

Wow that is a fantastic point that I hadn't yet thought of. It would be very easy to 'mess' with the compass. We could offset it by a wrong value, or even merge in a 2nd value that is animating. I'll point some designers to your post. |

Fantastic.
Would it be possible to put supply depots and suchlike on the compass?
If you look at the elder scrolls series compass that's pretty much what I mean - have objectives on it as well.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Great example of a small feature that can mean a lot...well done.
Also - great idea with the video clip. Would be keen to hear about your work in a future Dev Focus blog....

A few questions. Pardon me if these have already been answered, I only just noticed this thread.
1. A semi-common feature in shooters is to have your ammo amount be displayed holographically next to the weapon. Would it be possible to implement this as an toggleable feature, perhaps also showing heat as well as ammo?
2. If we ever get speedometers, how would you feel about implementing an accelerometer as well for vehicles, especially aircraft? It would be interesting and helpful to know how fast I'm speeding up as well as how fast I'm currently going.

Also on the subject of speedometers, please either put them in m/s or make us able to set it to that. I play a lot of PS2, and one of the things I hate most is that the speedometers are in km/h, so I have to mentally multiply that number by 3.6 to get my speed in useful units.
Legion is absolutely the right move for the future of Dust. How CCP went about revealing it is the biggest problem.

As Pyrex said, having North-South-West-East doesn't make sense as we call the direction our magnetic pole is North. The intelligent species at the bottom of the ocean might call it South. However, as humans on Earth playing a game made by other humans (allegedly) having an indicator of North-South-East-West on the mini map would be very useful for when your squad mates are saying "there is a tank to the southeast" and you are trying to figure out where that might be because you have No F****** Sense of Direction (NFSOD).

MC Peanut, when I watched the clip of the compass, I noticed that (to me at least) the rotation of the compass feels unnatural and counter intuitive. Having the compass act static and behave as if the user is looking inside a circle would be better in my opinion. What i mean by that is to have the compass rotate the opposite way of which the user turns.n++

Beat me to it... But yes, I think static icons on the compass would make more sense. Maybe have it be an option? |

It could be that he's basing it off the way a magnetic compass looks to an aircraft pilot in real life. Many such compasses on airplanes work like that.

Good catch. Actually I already flipped it to rotate reverse (CCP BaoZi pointed it out), but that wasn't in the build I recorded from. So it obviously gives me room to post more videos. |

CCP MC Peanut, you-¦re the perfect example of a tech guy, answering tech questions, having a good talk with the players, and setting the limits of what you can and can-¦t do, and mos importantly, what is up and what isn-¦t up to you to be decided.
Besides the initial bad vibe from CCP Z plans (hoe he-¦s digesting all the 30 pages feedback and come back to talk to us), all the devs are quite responsive and with a good interaction, but you sir outstands
Kudos for you for having a proper dialog with the commmunity, i have no idea what you and the other tech savy people are talking about when you discuss the tools, but you enthusiasm and passion for your job is contagious. =) |

Dont suppose you could add things like N,S,E,W on that compass too? Please please pretty please. So we know if its NNW or SSE etc.

Quoted for truth. You and more recently BaoZi have been hands down the best dev posters in this forum. Keep it up, I check back here and elsewhere you're active every day! o7
Z's progression is the only thing about Legion that gives me doubts. The rest has me totally stoked!

Well there should just be an option for metric or imperial.

My only recommendation is a marker for true north. Looks great, not going to lie, but to someone who doesn't have knowledge of how aircraft compasses work it looks like a bunch of numbers that are relative to my position. Also, what's the scale of the compass? 0-100? 0-360? This kind of information could greatly help tactical communication. If 0 is True North, then I can tell my team-mates that the sniper is "Twenty degrees from my location" or something to that extent.
