    Well, Sir, it seems as though you've wrapped up the discussion with your previous statement. "Too much like CoD". They are a completely unnecessary addition to the game, in the same way the massive icons that pop-up when you see something you can pick up are, or the clunky-as-hell gasmask filter change animation.

    I think they're great! I've always wondered if my bullets made contact with the enemy placed in the confusing space that is the centre of my screen and now, thanks to developers treating us like the complete fucking mongoloids that we are, I no longer have to worry about it! Blimey!

    If you took this seriously, you need to upgrade your Sarcasm Detector firmware to version 4.1.2

    Most likely there will be an option to turn them off. Nothing wrong with them being in game if you can turn them off. That way the real Metro fans get the right way and the 10 year olds get their shitty way.

    I don't really have a problem with them although I do think they're waste of time since the screams of the enemy and blood everywhere are enough for anyone with a brain to know whether or not they can aim properly.

    Funny thing is, hit markers were in Metro 2033, they just blended in better with the screen. They didn't look like blatant hit markers.

    The hit-markers are nothing to be mad at anyone for. I'd rather be disappointed if they couldn't be turned off. If they can be turned off, though, which I think they will, then I'd rather be thanking 4A Games for thinking about us rather than going "Alright, but I still dislike that you added hitmarkers in the game!" :p

    There were no hit markers...
     
  13. Hardcore mode -> crosshair disabled -> no hitmarkers.

    Yes, I did. Once. Back in 2010. But I really don't recall seeing any hitmarkers... I'll gladly startup the game tonight and pay close attention.

    I never play a game on easy. I play through it the first few times on normal and then go for the harder difficulty each time I play through it. I don't have the ranger pack bought on the 360 version but when I started it up on PC I right away wanted to play it on ranger easy (Kinda the normal of ranger mode since ranger mode is already pretty hardcore).

    And 4A is for sure going to have an option to turn them off. They made an amazing game on a low budget and now they have a chance to show what they can do with a much larger budget. 4A doesn't want to fuck it up with their fans. They really care about the game and Deep Silver also seem to really care about the game. Not really surprised since they published Clear Skies.

    Again, they weren't blatant compared to the markers they've shown for Last Light. It's like a spurt of blood on the screen in the direction of where you were hit. Maybe it was only on the easier difficulties when I saw them, but they are there.

    Those aren't hitmarkers you are talking about. Hitmarkers are the white little X signs that pop up when the bullet the player fired made contact with the enemy.
