Various changes and additions Sneaky Squirrel would like to see, in regards to the user interface. Mainly focusing on the HUD.
A more customizable interface is something that has been touched upon in the past - I believe even during livestreams. While we can adjust some aspects of it right now, it is extremely limited and far from what I'd like to see. My emphasis on the subject is not about being able to move stuff around and resizing it, but rather about what information is important and what is trivial - chosen individually per player.
Since I'm an "information freak", one of the top priorities for me would be being able to add more stuff to the interface. Right now, we only have a basic set of values shown (scrip and keys, in addition to the other standard elements). I would very much like to be able to add the following values to the "value line" (same line as scrip/keys, or as a new line just below it if there's insufficient vertical space):
Each of these should be possible to enable or disable separately - even the currently existing ones (scrip and keys). Other elements that should also be able to disable:
Furthermore, I'd like to be able to adjust the time and date displays. Currently we're all stuck with usin the default US style. Options should be added to allow us to:

Consoles are always the problem yeah, it would have to be another options menu for a little more customization. :(

I'd love to be able to hide it completely for screenshot purposes
Oh yes definitely.

A lot of info (like health) is redundant because it shows up in game.
It doesn't show health numbers anywhere :( We see damage numbers when we shoot stuff, but not when we take damage, or when we are boosted.

I'm also an information freak. Trick mentioned recently in a livestream that he wanted to show info like health numbers (normal and boosted from threat level), which would be awesome :)

The only problem is us console people would not be able to get a customizable interface unless they give us it in the Options menu. I love some of these additions but I dont think us console people would get this.
