More modern UI/HUD for the GTA Next?

[Kafonix]

See GTA Online or GTA V, it has that bulky, pseudo-modern menu style everyone hates by now.

I'd like to see something very new and innovative as the next UI, something Watch Dogs-like or something that integrates into the game world.

 

The majority of flaws of GTA Online were just there because the game is heavily based on UIs, loading screens, lobbies and stuff that belongs to a generic shooter.

GTA Online should have utilized its story far more and should not have depended on a sh*tload of meta-menuing, choosing lobbies in fugly menues, but rather on immersive gangster roleplay.

My opinion.

For me, the screen has to be clean as possible, so in Singleplayer I play with the HUD turned off, in Online that 's completely out of question, so a smaller HUD that can be read easily is a must.

 

But please don't use that square minimap again, everytime I looked at it when I played the game for the first time I thought I was playing a 2000's game.

 

EDIT: and I completely missed the point...

I don't have a problem with the menus at all, but the gameplay HUD should go back to a round minimap, with the healthbar being circular just like it was back in IV IMO.

I hated the way you changed radio stations and weapons in V, IV was way better in my opinion and a lot quicker for me. I think they should return to that. As for the mini-map I'm on the fence but I am leaning towards the round one, I liked it and the fact that you can see the same distance away at all angles.

The GTA V/Online HUD was fine, for me. If I could change something, I'd just make a small change on the radio selection menu - the logo of the chosen station is colored, while the logos of the other stations are black and white.

I prefer a clean, minimal HUD ( Similar to Far Cry 2 ) experience. Instead of lots of info from blips, icons to radar always showing, which breaks the immersion for me.

Its fine to provide a plethora of info but should be able to customize these on-screen indicators, according to what the player desires to see, including the option to turn it off entirely.

Apart from the health and armor all of the rest ( including radar ) are pointless to have on screen.

Additionally, each and every displayed info should be made separate, not merged inside the radar, which the player can bring up to check for the information, if required.

I'd like that. The HUD in V looked like ass.

You can. Load up you're interactions menu, go to hide options, and start hiding whatever you want.

I'd like sliders to Turn On/Off everything separately.

I'd like sliders to Turn On/Off everything separately.

I'd like that and also have opacity options for all HUD options.
