So the KDK kill counter is pretty bulky and also sight blocking;



I wonder if this is common, or would make for a reasonable enough request to have it put higher up, the little metal arm could just be longer, putting the counter out of sight blocking range.

The crumminess of what looks like an adjustable arm as well as what looks like extra cording length for just such a thing, makes me just wish I could move it >.<

Greetings !

Narcissism.........the visual thrill of achievement......for those who "the kill" is the only thing that matters......A "Maslow" indicator; if you would.........a merit badge for those spectating to see the skill of the pilot......etc, etc, etc........

I agree: who really needs it when we could have a simple and small indication on the bottom of the HUD...

I personally would love to be able to remove the kill monitor entirely, often they are just in distracting or sight blocking locations, and honestly I can count the kills when the match is over.

If you think that's blocking your view... you haven't seen the cockpit of a Thunderbolt 9S with a second missile weapon. Entire left side of the cockpit is rendered completely useless.

Or you know... put the kill counter on the HUD with a number that takes up 10 pixels...

I'd rather PGI allowed iPads to serve as monitors and HUD displays and get rid of those on-screen monitors/displays entirely. My setup has 3, all on articulated arms.

It would be better if the indicator showed the total team kills for game modes that don't like Incursion.

Or a web browser.

I started hating those retarted monitors instantly when they were introduced. They look stupid, block your view, break suspension of disbelief and are completely unnecessary. Please add an option to turn them off.

Personally, I love kill counters.. they are kinda fun.. like a free interactive cockpit item.. I don't mind them blocking the view, I can see fine in most mechs..

What I do mind though, is that Kills really don't matter.. they just count "killing blows". Anyone can kill-steal. I value KMDDs alot more.. cose' they are the "true kills". They tell me I eliminated an enemy mech with more damage than anyone else. I earned that. A kill, I do not always "earn".

So if the kill counter would score KMDDs too, that would be cool.
