will 2042 show the damage percentage?

Ive noticed in a few of the videos it does not show the damage percentage when you get a hit on vehicles? Has this not been added yet or are we going away from the system that BF4 had.

I could not find a thread on this topic.

Thank you in advance.

  • @mattj0078I do not think percentages have been shown previously, however whole number damage values have long been shown on the attacker's end alongside the in-game point values of that shot.

    The below screenshot shows how it appeared in Battlefield 1:

    I just noticed on the video that just released for the beta when he hit the tank it did not show the percentage like it does in BF4. I always use this to judge how many RPGs I need to take out the tank or in what area the rpg hits does the most damage.

    @mattj0078Yes, I took one as well:

    In this case ^ , it shows that the RPG hit and applied 28 points of damage.  It could be considered a percentage as well, since it is from the tank's total health pool of 100.


    This feature will probably be returning in Battlefield 2042, yes.

    *Edit: I am not 100% sure.  I was, but after thinking through it again... I will play it safe here.

    We can't really judge from the videos as DICE has repeatedly said the UI wasn't finished in the technical tests. Whether that also applies to the official videos we just don't know yet either due to the silence from the studio overall.
