Anyone noticed watching the stream that the Kill-Feed Text has no love at all? So boring all in white, and looks just like SWBF’s Kill-Feed. I don’t know if it’s just because it’s the Pre-Alpha, but if this is how it will look like OMG, no way!
People have been demanding a better Kill-Feed Text Notification after BF4, but when I saw the BF1 Kill-Feed I thought that BF4’s is even better lel.
Sometimes it’s not clear enough what’s intended by the Text-Confirmation about a certain action, like in the video at min. 1:44, where the Tank is hit by a grenade it reads “WEAPON DISABLED”, so what’s intended, the Tank itself as a whole or only the Tank-Weapon? It should be “TANK-WEAPON DISABLED” instead to leave no doubt!
In previous posts some asked for a color customizable Kill-Feed, which can be implemented. In BF4 you can customize your crosshair’s size and color too, so why not the Kill-Feed Text.
Remember that its still pre-alpha. I am sure it will change and be polished up quite a bit before the games release. It’s happened with every other battlefield game in the past where the UI changed quite a bit.
Yap, for sure there are more important issues, like some core gameplay mechanics and so on, but nevertheless the Kill-Feed isn’t unimportant because in many situations it gives you a clear indication for your next action which you have to decide in 10th of a second and which is the cause of capturing a flag or to kill or be killed.
