Default Petition For Optional Melee Crosshair

Hello everyone, Slap here.

This is a petition for IJJI to add functionability for having a custom crosshair when you use a melee weapon. This allows for the majority of players to actually enjoy using Full-Screen crosshairs, that can customize how your health-bar meter looks, and your 'selected-weapon' box, which as of now, are only useful to people who don't make use of their melee weapon alot.

It could be done just like how you add recoil on your custom crosshairs, adding another .png to your 'CUSTOM CROSSHAIR' folder, which enables a crosshair to be used on your melee-weapon, just like adding recoil is optional.

If any IJJI/MAIET 'important-people' see this, please consider adding this into the game, as it will benefit the GunZ community.

REMEMBER, THIS IS MORE FOR CUSTOMIZED HUD THAN IT IS FOR HAVING A CROSSHAIR FOR YOUR MELEE WEAPON!

Even if the crosshair is invisible by default, that would be fine since it could still be customized, thus allowing a full screen HUD while meleeing. In that case, all of you guys' complaints, everything from confusing newbies to making melee headshots easier to helping with battlefield coordination and launching tactical nukes (that's about what I got from that particular post) would be moot. It is a very insignificant change and SHOULD, from a design perspective, take virtually no effort on their part. In other words, other than sheer laziness or a lack of awareness regarding the problem, there is no reason they shouldn't implement this.

I don't think this is a needed thing, it would just be used for cosmedic purposes, and would not improve gameplay at all.

Yes, because aesthetics have nothing to do with overall game appeal.

That's why marketing teams targeting teens make all the characters teletubbies right?

...and that's why we get to customize the clothes our characters wear right?

Why do you need a crosshair for sword if you don't really need to aim.
And good luck getting Maiet/ijji to do this for you...cuz they wont. Its alot of work... for them

Answers are in dashes. I don't think it's necessary, it would only add to the confusion for new players and/or players who don't have GIMP, don't know how to make a crosshair, or don't want to make a crosshair. They would always have the default (or whatever their crosshair) is for Melee.

Secondly, you and I both know Ijji/MAIET do nothing anyways, so it is likely that they will not implement anything we say, ever.

Default Re: Petition For Optional Melee Crosshair

When the crosshair disappears when I pull my sword out to dash, I don't like re-adjusting my aim we the gun it out again. I would just make another small dot crosshair for melee and just aimbot aim.

Yep, an optional feature, and a simple one.

Fine by me

However, i really don't think petitions like these work

Um its mostly the HUD people want to keep. Cause its ugly seing it flash on and off during K style/D style. And the actualy crosshair would help A LOT during K style/D style, for ss/hs/jsd...you know, that kind of thing. Because you cuold aim before your gun even comes out, during the slashing animation.

Ya dig ?

I like this idea. It could prove to be useful for quick shots when you switch from melee to a gun.

I like the idea. I mean, it would probaly be optional anyway so anyone who does not like it can just not use the feature.

This'd make it easier to score headshots.

Unfortunately, that'd lessen the coolness of melee headshots.

Either way, 1 naGunz player = 1/1000 Korean player = +10^-17% influence on chance of implementation (obviously) so I'm not worried!
