Inventory Indicators - Hypothetical Feature

Continuing my look at features that could in theory be added to the game. In this article I present the problem of end of events where people stand around looking off into the distance as they are in full screen menus looking at their loot or maps.

A previous suggestion I made of this was to add an interact animation and a virtual screen pop up, as if the player was interacting with EGO. Take note of the old UI and my EGO Rating, bless!

Benefits

• Provide an indicator to the ready status of nearby players
• Provide explanation to the weirdness of people just standing around

Downsides

• Resources! consoles and things :(
• Potential screen clutter
