Simple question. Do you have the massive SAI font enabled or disabled?

This thread is not to argue nor stir sh1t up. Im interested in seeing how many people play with the font huge or not.


Info if you are unfamiliar with the scenario:

Default font was made huge. If you were unaware - it is possible to revert back to default but you need to edit bDisableCustomConsoleFont=True


Assist > Settings > SAI Settings > bDisableCustomConsoleFont=True


I should almost add a 3rd option of: I was unaware I could make it smaller.

Hey I passed you in -internetz, are you upset?


Everybody, one day will die, and be forgetten. Act and behave in a way that will make life interesting and fun, fuck a mundane predictable life working monday to friday with something you derive no pleasure from; just living life out till you grow old and wither away. Find a passion, form relationships, dont be afraid to get out there and fuck what everyone else thinks, trust me its alot more fun that way.

Dont ever pay people out or put people down. Instead just put yourself up and let the haters do their thing. Id rather be a person thats hated on, than a person that does the hating. A wise man one said...

I started playing AA back when 1.8 proved to being a massive update. It has been a while since I even had America's Army installed and quite frankly --after opening it up-- I feel as though no substantial change in terms of visual alignment and HUD-presence has at all occurred (Yes, this mean that I did not take notice to the effective changes in font-size!).

Judging from the poll, most players have either come to liking the newly adjusted size or have disabled it as they saw fit with no further requirement for extensive and melodramatic moaning such as the one you are so eagerly and adeptly displaying. Which brings me to what some may have dare question: Why are you so invested in pointing out the what you believe to be wrong in the game and/or Dev's actions (through your individual perspective, as logic demands!) but seem very little to none interested in pointing out its counterparts?


Just trying to make sense of your solid representation of arseness.

I too have played since 1.7 / 1.8.

I have a modern computer, 22 / 23 inch running at 1680x1050. WITH the font updated, it is ridiculously huge hogging screen real estate. I also have perfect 20/20 vision. I sit about an arms length away. I can read it perfectly fine with the small default, and it saves screen space for enemy moment. There is absolutely no reason the chat font needs to be near the same as the hud / ammo / nade count and so on. Pure madness.

Yes, you can disable it. That is beside the point. Im just saying I dont see why things like this are made default. I not once had heard anyone complain the font was too small, ever.

The font remained the same size right to 2.8.5 no? Why did the army never change it? - likely because it was sufficient and a few complaints dont validate a change, especially to make it a default.

Even spanky said it was a few people complaining so eliz decided to make it a project. So cool, you make a new feature for people....Thats great. But why would this become the standard default?




If the majority enjoy the large font, so be it, by all means if it should indeed be a default enabled. But I do not see how anyone would prefer to lose screen real estate for a game. Are you really doing that much chatting?

Do you play this game to chat or shoot bitches?
