As most people have probably seen 1000's of times now, the big yellow HUD messages that go right across the center of the screen can be annoying. The font is too big, and the message is right in the center of the screen.
With that said, I would like some feedback on moving the HUD messages to a more, less annoying spot. Here's 2 screen shots that show not only a smaller font, but the HUD message being at the top or at the bottom for example. I think most will agree having it in the middle of the screen is a hinderance and is annoying especially when in the middle of some sort of combat.
So what do you think of these screens? Is the smaller font size ok? Would you rather have it at the top or bottom? Your input will decide where the HUD messages will be from now on, so please participate if you have an opinion.
Edit: I am personally torn on whether I would rather have it at the top or bottom, but I can not stand the HUD messages in the middle of the screen!
Here's 2 examples - one with the HUD message at the top - the other with the HUD message at the bottom
