Star Citizen - campaign for a HUD-less interface - revel in the 3D beauty

ugly unreadable insulting


Star Citizen is a pre-alpha multi-player online game in development at Cloud Imperium and as you can see from the image above has a hideous primary-colour 1990s fighter-type HUD or Heads Up Display.
While this might work for the more story-driven single-objective single-player Squadron 42 game CI are co-developing, this kind of basic graphical overlay is UTTERLY UNREADABLE in the multi-player context and totally butchers the three-dimensional beauty of the CI game assets.
This is a personal campaign to get CI to drop this gaming eyesore and adopt a HUD-less interface... maybe something more like the following images:

removed all green ship triangles

isn't this better than some terrible text overlay?


Make every Star Citizen asset a foreground asset once again.
