Monsker's guide for the avid player of Far Cry 3! - The HUD

The HUD explained

The HUD

1) The minimap.
2) This little circle on the minimap shows the position of your current objective.
3) The distance to your current objective.
4) This is the number of health syringes you have
5) This blue line shows the condition of your armor, once depleted the armor will not regenerate.
6) These bars show the amount of health you have, the maximum is 6 bars. Partially depleted bars will regenerate.
7) Game prompts- here it suggests reloading your weapon. It will also prompt you to use syringes for health, and to put the fire out. (should you catch fire)
8) The amount of time the effects of the syringe you have just used lasts. Here, it is a hunting syringe that has been used.
9) The number of molotovs, grenades, C4, or trip mines you have.
10) the amount of bullets you have left, and the amount left in the clip. Here, since the clip is empty, We are being prompted to reload. (7)
11) These marks Indicate that I have just taken damage from a Dingo. It has depleted 2 and a half bars of health (6), and the dingo now lays dead (12). Indicators for other forms of damage will appear in the same location but will have different shapes.
12) Dead dingo.

I really appreciated this guide. Showed me some of the more subtle aspects of the HUD I hadn't noticed before. Thanks for making it.

[BeSerious]

If someone is an avid player, would they need this? Probably not. Maybe a novice player, but not an avid one.
