The health bar is too OP. I understand you are trying to make the game easier for newcomers but this is pushing it too far. If a player cannot do basic damage math then their problem is not the lack of a health bar....Having a health bar eliminates the possibility to re enter a fight with low flesh and a fresh armor swap. Being able to play aggressively like that can completely change the outcome of the fight and that is something that a more experienced player is likely to attempt and should be rewarded for. Having shields has always been a "mask" to hide the flesh underneath and that is important. IF YOU DEFINITELY NEED A HEALTH BAR THEN CHANGE IT TO SHIELD ONLY. THAT WOULD BE MORE BALANCED

@kotosoupas agree that needs to be deleted again, i want to play basic BR and now we are forced to play that new * with health bars, revival etc... just stupid

If you want Apex Legends to become the next Halo Infinite, please continue.

How about instead of adding these ridiculous health bars and halos, Maybe You (rEAspawn) can actually fix the match making, and then you wouldn't of had to add this garbage into the game..... 5 years later.

@kotosoupas Highlight is op too. It reduces the importance of searching skills.

the Healthbar ( flesh or shield ) and outline of enemies makes no sense...

how can this game be taken seriously and competitive when it adds more and more that trows the competitive side away?

outline : you don't need to pay attention we make your enemies glow red so you can see them without the need of a scan of a surveillance from a teammate

healthbar: let us show you your enemy health so you don't have to think if you are going to push or not...

@blymagnet You don't need to make math, the games does it for you

SETTINGS / Gameplay / Damage Numbers : and you can choose if you want single damage display , stacked combines all damage, or both

I suck at math but healthbars is just a trash system from a competitive game, not even Fortnite has it

If you play the game and start have some game sense you will know if a team mate is low or not...

Highlight enemies and healthbar is just plain "cheating"

@Popa2capsYeah, the health bars over enemies have got to go. Mirage, Caustic, & Bangalore have been rendered useless.
Knowing when enemies are low and making decisions based on that is a critical skill I think they need to keep in the game. The health bars are just a bad idea that I hope they realize are a mistake.

@kotosoupas I think if you're worked up over healthbars, or the small highlight, 'ruining' the competitive game, you're probably not playing at a competitive level. They don't do much, anyone slightly competent can do what they do already - it's basic math, like you said - this just shows what anyone with any competence should already know. If that's taking away from your competitiveness then you weren't competing in the first place, lol.
