PC Health bars locked behind INT perk?

[Yisiscreise]

Same here. Honestly, they should just give the option to turn them on and off. I'm sure that at least most people would have them on, and modders would find them very helpful for getting exact damage numbers. The only real argument against them is that it might break immersion a little, which I actually agree with, which is the whole point of making them a toggle option just like air drop marker.

+1!!

I'm with the camp that wants to see health bars on zombies and other entities. Why? Well you can see your own health bar/stamina/water/hunger levels and even the 'hitpoints' of inanimate objects like asphalt, trees, windows, soil, workbenches, cars, etc, etc. Why can't you see the health of other things like zombies?

For peeps saying it breaks immersion. Then won't harvesting animal corpses also break immersion since you see how much 'life' it has left? Your immersion is already broken when you can see how much damage you do (take one swing at a block and see the difference) and how many hitpoints something has left (eg cutting down a tree, hitting a block or something from the above list). You also shouldn't be able to see that your attack does 2x or 2.5x damage. Part of immersion is implying you don't know something about this or that. Yet we see this all throughout 7D2D.

To cater to both groups though, I think this should be implemented as (yes) another setting.

If you plug in a controller and press ABBAUpDownSelect then it unlocks the 11th tier of perception which costs 30 points and then you can see the bars....

why does console always get fancy stuff like that ? im very disapointed

I'm actually surprised at how many want the health bar. I know I sais immersion, partially as a joke, but I think all those health bars would be super distracting. Especially on horde night.

I don't want them either but to be completely honest only one health bar ever showed at a time. You only saw it when your crosshairs was on the enemy/animal/vehicle and only if it was in range.

That wouldn't be bad tbh, I still prefer none, but that would be a good compromise.

Yes.... and right now it's perceiving 11th level sarcasm.

The one and only reason I want health bars is because of health regen zombies. After sticking 30 arrows in one id like to see if im making progress or wasting my time.

If at all i ask for removing the XP Counter. It shows if a anemy is death.Luckily you cant see it aimed in

Zs get up instantly off the ground, so you can already easily tell.

We have very different perception about "instandly".

The time a zombie need to stand up i kill 3 others

Melee or range.

Not Shotgun with shells.

If you're going for range, use slugs or don't use shotgun.

If you're going melee, use a melee weapon instead of something that will wake the dead.

Pretty simple.

 

[Jeraal]

I would prefer the zeds show damage. I know it's asking too much to represent each hit landed, but a more and more damaged looking model would be nice. If it looks like it's barely holding together, it's almost dead(again).

To the original point, I might buy it if there was nothing else available. But likely not even then. They're just ugly.

I just read this exchange in the thread "shotguns" and thought I'd put this kind of ridiculous idea in a new thread rather than clutter up that one.




What I was thinking is that there's a perk you can buy to let you see zombie health bars, and maybe unlock some other "gross" UI elements. Of course, is there really anyone who'd buy that?

There are a 16 mods that have it. They made the glasses grant the wearer the ability to see zombie hp. Worked pretty slick. Seems a mod slot and item would be nice.

 

[Toy truck]

i love it that you need to look twice if a enemy is death or not

If u get zombie xp it means they ded.if u could turn that off,it be nice.

I'd buy it

 

[Junuxx]

I like this idea!

Come to think of it, perhaps hit markers and that loud "thump" you hear when successfully pulling of a long-range shot should perk-locked too, under the same principle.

I like this too! Could go in the same perk. We could call it "Know Your Enemy" or "Combat Awareness".

At the highest level, you could even get compass blips for enemies (like you get now in some quests).

Actually .... yeah!!

I wouldn't mind seeing just how fast they regenerate.

For me, the more info the better. In any game.
