It's funny how people prefer a floating button over a digital HUD that not only matches the style, but also displays much more information than the original HUD. This is not a carbon-copy of C&C Renegade, we are here to improve it in all ways necessary, and we won't waste this opportunity by trashing all of the innovative ideas that compliment the gameplay.
There's really no way you could make a hybrid of both HUDs. Our HUD is essentially just like Renegade's in terms of where everything is located, the difference is it's digital. A HUD cannot by half-digital, half-floating button.
We do agree with some of the fixes concerning transparency and colour though, these are constructive criticisms.
