Dissecting the Battlefield 3 Interface

Perhaps it’s my old age catching up with me, but these days I just prefer something that works right out of the box. I expect intuitive interfaces in all products–video games are no exception. For that reason, it’s time to yell at the PC version of Battlefield 3.

BF3's HUD is WAAAAAAAAAAAY too cluttered. They added skulls so people would have to be aware of their surroundings but with the amount of killing that goes on you could be looking at a wall of skulls that the enemies could be hiding behind. They made the huge progress circle for when ur capturing a flag so you cant see even more. All of it is neon colors so it all melds together. The mini map is a mess of glowing icons that all get very hard to distinguish at a quick glance with the monochrome blue that doesnt allow for quick and easy differentiation of buildings and such. The little objective that pops up every time you spawn. The HUD needs a remake badly. Theres more but i forget..

Edit: HOW COULD I FORGET THE WEAPON SELECTION SCREEN?

Its so much of a pain to get through the weapons selection screen. Go to kit, go to customize, go to weapon, pick you weapon, pick your 3 attachments. the awkward quick selection doesnt help either.

What would help is preset kits.

Flag names arent distinguishable on the map, theyre just blue or orangey red boxes.

I think they would have liked to make prset kits, but then people would compare it to COD.

BF3 menus were designed to induce seizures is seems and the HUD it is way to cluttered in MP.

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

Knightofelemia1276d ago

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

We'll see what happens now that Zampella is overlooking the series.
