And before this point - the Unreal Tournament "multi-kill", "MONSTER KILL!".

and the more important: C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!

(and my short answer is no. Long answer: nooooooooooooooooooooooooo)



The announcer in mw4mercs was my favorite part of the game...

I thought it looked a little silly in Borderlands (which is in my opinion not worth the praise it gets), and I think it'll look even more silly here.

To the OP - just came to mind - the Devs have talked about a possible combat / battle log, so that should suffice for everyone wanting to see hwo much damage the do.

Q: Can the new End Game screen data be saved, so we can review it later?
A: Eventually there will be a battle log, so yes.

Floating damage numbers? Please no.
A detailed combat log I can review and see why I didn't as much damage as I calculated I should have? Definitely!

Okay, first off: you're an *****.

Mechwarrior, has never. Ever. EVER had floating damage text. Your argument about all the MMO's that have it; guess what?! THEY'RE ACTION RPGS!!!!

This is a simulator, to make you feel like you're actually in the mech. The reason why Battletech told you how much damage your weapons did is so you'd actually know when the hell you killed something, so the game could actually progress.

The floating numbers would be highly redundant, because if you look at the top right of your screen.... OMG A PAPER DOLL OF THE ENEMY MECH THAT SHOWS THE DAMAGE YOU INFLICT ON IT!!!! ZOMG!!!!!

Seriously, think before posting.

I started playing MW3 when i was 9. I needed no such thing as damage numbers popping up on screen to help me understand that I was damaging something and I freely admit I wasn't and never have been the smartest person out there. Suggesting that the the average new player needs this to understand damage is ********.

Floating combat text?

Just one possible answer to that:

No.

i'll just leave it at that.

i agree there could be a combatlog somewhere but floating numbers are a terrible idea.. and dont say "you can turn it off in the options". If there is an advantage to have people are gonna use it even if it will hurt their play experience.

Its like heatvision could see through walls and everyone would run heatvision 100% of the time.. then the guy comes "its optional to use heatvision"
