And how do you plan to use it? Crytek has not released the HUD/UI to the public (and probably wont), if you want this feature, you're going to have to do it yourself.

If you've made it yourself without taking any of their code or exact design then yes

If those are exactly the same then you can just as well say that both games stole the design from Half-Life. :rolleyes:
