I want to be the first to say, I dont like these new targeting systems. If I open a bag, it just decides to pop its "lifebar" in the middle of my screen. Anyone else notice this and not like it. Although I do like the targeting mobile objects, its the stationary objects I dont like being highlighted. Is there a way to turn that particular part off?

Yeh I didnt understand why stationary items are highlighted, I like the system very much though. Have you tried in options? Im sure they added options for it.

I think the system is good to. But I got in just a moment ago and I noticed life bar when I want ot the Cat Statue for regs. And I don't like that is a annoying Also I don't like the little thing that's over the boxes I may like it when it comes to enemies but not objects. Also I'm guess the buff system isn't actually in yet is it. since I read its suppose to be pub 40 and I'm a bit confused but I'm guessing the patch wasn't pub 40 jsut a little patch to put the stuff in before the patch. since I read something needed to be added for font or context before the virtue armor quest can be done in the test center.
