Title: enemy health
Post by: CardBoardWarrior on June 14, 2006, 05:17:52 pm
Why cant you see how much health percent an enemy has when you mouse over him? Its not going to help you or anything, just sometimes I wish I could see out of curiosity... -.-

You mean when you're dead/spectating?

Four words, dude: blood on his bod.

no..he meant when fighting enemies.

i'd like to see a green bar on teammates as well, it'd be better than to try to read the number.

Yeah, when fighting.

I dont know, I just find myself wanting to know sometimes after being killed and I feel they should have been as well.

I support this idea. It would make it easier to distinguish who needs health for defending the flag, etc.

the bar over teammates has already been suggested in the old forums - but i'd definitely want it!  Health of enemy?  no, realistically you can only tell how much 'health' someone has by the way he looks - or in soldat, how blood-covered he is.

Well, instead of bars i would just like a percentage beside their names.

No only for thirty seconds. Hey, wait a second..... even in inf_Fortress and inf_Zappalin (where you get tons of fuel) you don't get thirty seconds! That sort of makes sense! Then again, it shouldn't be able to recharge.

I disagree with this notion of seeing the enemies' health. It keeps it more secretive and keeps a feeling of separation from your enemies, like you don't have access to any of their intelligence.

I agree with putting a health bar above your teammates rather than having to put your crosshair on them and then being given a percentage in dark grey. You should always see their health, it would put even more strategy, knowing instantly how alive they are.

Right on there Jenkins. Bars above teammates, none for enemies.
