There is so many things wrong with Cold War’s (and soon to be bo6) hud, but I feel like not a lot of people have talked about the handlers taking up so much space for no reason.
At least maps provide some amount of info, but I do not need to see who is talking. Is Treyarch so bad at designing characters now that I can’t tell who is saying quotes without seeing their name and face at all times.
A good example is der eisendrache, Richtofen and Dr Groph are talking back and forth through the whole map, even delivering some iconic dialogue. No goofy ass picture was needed for us to be like “oh that doctor on the moon is talking!”

Exactly. I really hope that we can disable the pngs of their face. I hate it.
My guess is that it’s because you will have three different handlers and they think new players might be confused if they don’t see who is talking to them. Should definitely have an option to turn them off though
so deaf people know who’s talking in the subtitles.
I feel like game devs cater to people with horrible attentiveness.
They want players to know characters and understand them, so they make it abundantly obvious.

The UI is a total mess. Hoping it’s changed because it looks pretty darn good apart from the UI
So far though, BO6 looks absolutely amazing and I really hope it comes out well. The HUD is really the only thing that seems bad so far, and I’m sure there will be options to make it smaller/take out some elements
Old school vibe if you play any retro games it displays the person talking (starfox,sly cooper) it adds nuance to the game. Also I think it helps to know who is talking cause before on like der riese you would hit the radio and would hear something and not know who it was or what was being said.
Because in Cold War they were the only actual characters outside of cutscenes lol
Imagine if it did that every time Samantha opened her mouth on Origins. Terribly annoying.
BO6 hud looks absolutely hideous compared to BO3
Are they seriously keeping the warzone armor system?
Fuck dude
For the love of god, what is that on the left side of the screen?
So did you guys forget that the HUD in this game is customizable?
Foreal, it does not look good
Why does Leia leave Obi-wan a holographic message instead of just an audio recording?
Gotta put a face to the dialog unless it’s some mysterious character or unknown entity in the story.
One of the first things you’ll see in a character’s introduction in almost any book is a description of how they look, it helps you remember which threads of the story originate from whom when you can summon that mental image. The same thought applies here.
