Why is there 24 atlas head icons on the inside of my hunchback? Actually I don't care why. Please fix. Thanks.

It's the kill counter from the "cockpit monitor changes".

Really.

You can turn it off in the Options if you don't like them.

3 years into the game and its done so bad I am forced to turn it off immediately? 24 atlas heads on the inside of my Hunchback? Seriously?

I bet someone who hasn't seen this would think I am making it up but I'm not.

Also yes, I know its a new feature and may be improved, but I am making an point of it so this ridiculous display doesn't get missed.

Turn it off and stop crying.

Or enjoy the fact your monitors are not broken, also that 2 of them will actually count your kills.

Oh, well that explains everything. My bad. For a minute there I thought the guys in charge of this had totally failed at making anything approaching ok mech interiors.

[DAYLEET]

Is the problem that there is 24 and killing your entire team, including yourself, does not count or that they are AS7 heads?

[Khobai]

well from an immersion standpoint theyre pretty awful lol

I personally dont care but I can see how it would upset some people

No. It's 3 years into the game and its done, but you don't care for a minor aesthetic that everyone else barely notices. However, PGI anticipated that there would be overly dramatic whiners, so they inserted an option to disable the minor aesthetic that you don't care for. so no, you are not "forced" to turn it off "immediately". it's just an option you can exercise at any point in time. "immediately", a few days from now, next year, or even never.

I can only imagine the epic meltdown you're going to have in the future, when you come home one day to discover your significant other has painted the bedroom the wrong shade beige.

"displays an icon I don't like" =/= "broken"

Not an icon. 24 of them. = broken. I made a topic about redundancy in this game before. They turn around and go completely off the leash about it. lol

Now that you mention it yes.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO that many atlas heads inside the cockpit except 10 times as large and green. I'm sure its a place holder like I said above. I am happy to point it out as not acceptable.

[Kilo 40]

that's what I thought.

How are they "not broken?" the one shows a kill count, which is whatever, the others show nonsense, might as well be static. Put all the info from the screen on monitors. Until useful information is displayed, they're broken.
