Floating damage numbers

I support the idea of floating combat text only as an option to players.
Please make a combat log and this available to players.
The purpose of argument should not be victory, but progress.
An option for floating combat text would be a great addition in my opinion also!
I'm against the idea. I don't want the screen to be cluttered with floating text.

If they were to implement this i wouldn't mind if it was optional though.
this is one of the things i've missed the most, especially the option seeing when i crit, it adds a lot to the experience, and it makes it easier to see if you are using the right skills/weapons, etc.
hope it will be added as an option at least, might be quite a few who don't want this kind of clutter.

if this is not an option, i would suggest a combat log that you can view in the chat area, or as its own "window". it would do much the same job anyway.
If GGG can make it work and not be a distraction i would love to see DMG numbers. I personally love this feature in other hack fest and feel it helps me keep an eye on what kind of damage, and how much im dealing out. And is strangely satisfying to me.
I'm against any floating dmg/misses/crit texts over heads

simply i'm not playing games with that feature,

so please GGG do not implement such feature in PoE , game is for fun, if any1 likes statistics trade forex

I think floating dmg numbers are must have!

1. Makes game look more dynamic.
2. Gives a lot of information to a player. For example you know when you hit something, when you deal a crit, when you block, dodge and other stuff.
3. Makes you feel the progress of your char. When you go to next difficulty it feels like your char is dealing less dmg, is more fragile etc. It is couse hp bars show you dmg as % of max life. And you cant say anything about how much it actually is. With numbers you can see it is getting better despite having to hit this damn zombie 3 times more than one difficulty before.

And customizable battle txt can be nice thing to have. (Maybe even option to buy new fonts and effects in GGG ingame shop)

You say you dont want to have the whole screen filled with dmg numbers couse you are using AoE spells? Damn, you cant see sh1t anyways, when you spamm your nova!
If someone dont what to have it, make it an option.
im alright with floating numbers as long as they dont come in cheesy font... accompanied by huge COMBO and STYLE thingies somewhere in UI. lol
