Before we begin I just want to say sorry is this is in the wrong forum I still new to the forums.

UI/Controls:
>The controller support in my opinion needs some work, I feel like it was just a quick add on at the of development.
>I think the UI need to be mod-able or let me customize it somehow (and make it more controller support).
>Add and indicator to show me what direction I am facing with or without a controller.
>Add a another indicator that shows you the range of your weapons.

Content/Community:
>I feel like the content while keep you entertained for a while but a custom mission maker will be alot better.
>The Steam Workshop,I think we both know nothing more needs to be said.
>A horde survival more (like COD zombies).

Feel free to add anything and please read DEVS. :)

Excellent post and welcome to the community! I for one, think that you made some wonderful and fresh points and that the devs would be very happy to get a chance to see something like this.

hmm

UI related, yeah. Customizable would be nice, but in the words of a game master on the subject of allowing for the old UI to make a comeback: "Given that many like the current UI, we plan to focus our efforts on other areas of the game."

Also, what kind of controller are you using? This game came out in 2011 and thus most of its controller support is for older controllers, such as an xbox 360 controller. Newer controller have problems, and official support for new controllers would be a nice addition for sure.

Without a controller (mouse and keyboard), there is an indicator of where you are looking - your mouse cursor. Allowing for a cursor to be visible for controllers would be beneficial to the game as long as it isn't too big or intrusive.

Range of weapons is something you learn with time. In the past we didn't have a shield health bar or charge meters, both of which were just attributed to visuals, sounds, and feel. Learning the range of your weapons is something you learn with usage - from a fresh perspective it might be helpful but once you learn the range of things you'll find out there's only like, 3 or 4 sword ranges and 3 or 4 gun bullet distances.

Annnd community-created level editor/content would be amazing. While steam workshop would be cool, it would be better to not limit custom content to steam accounts, but rather via an in-game editor. That alone would bring so many people back and would keep creativity alive.

The controller I am using is called a Speedlink Xeox Pro Gamepad I don't know when it was made sorry.

I know not everybody uses a steam it was suppose to be a comparison but I didn't make that clear.

And thanks for stating that about the Range weapons and I think if they were going to add indicators it should have a resize option.

lil custom floors

custom floors would be fun but there would be a special currency in it that isnt crs because putting like hundreds of treasure boxes in one lil area would be WAY too op.

I thought of maybe a limit to how many treasure boxes about per floor, 3 maybe?
