This “Armour Break” message is so off putting. I keep thinking I’ve downed them

    The text animations, along with bias towards the armor breaking audio, is extremely confusing in high intensity situations.

    If you’re fighting 2-3 people who are all running around…all you can hear are plates break while text animations spam the screen constantly.

    I can never figure out who I downed or whose plates I broke.

    I’ve chased people around corners thinking I just broke their plates just to find them down… only to then get shot in the back.

    The whole thing is ass backwards. Give us audio signals that are biased towards ‘downed’ and not plate breaks.

    Was never an issue with Al Mazrah because the distance between most fights was exponentially greater and the chances of getting into a multi-person/team fight wasn’t so frequent.

    My brain is constantly in a pretzel trying to play fast on Ashika.

    This is an absolutely atrocious addition. I don’t give a fuck about that shit. Tell me when they downed and dead, that’s it.

  3. Myl0high

    People bitch for no reason. Now they devs break the game

    Just change it back to the cracked symbol. The other system was fine lol

    This isn’t as dumb as switching weapons gives what select fire youre on, and getting deployed with the select fire to tap. Like there’s no way the majority of players use single tap that they justified auto selecting the fire to single?

    And if that isn’t the case, what was their reasoning? And all the buffs to single in the patch notes? What’s the objective?

    I know what the objective is I just want to complain about that direction more.

    It’s even more weird when there is so much stuff going on that you end up thinking that you killed them. Then the self res and come up behind you and kill you

    imo the worst thing they added, so unnecessary i hate it

  8. Wakenbake585

    Such a bizarre add. I don’t get why they thought this was good. I really don’t think they test anything.

  9. bugistuta

    Terrible addition, along with the weapon fire type display text.

    Is there just a bunch of morons working on this game or what.. This is the dumbest shit

  11. macadoo784

    So much non sense pops up on the screen. not to mention the super loud music but inaudible footsteps

  12. comengetitrmm

    yea this sucks…most of the things they changed kinda suck to be honest

  13. MovieTheatreDonkey

    This game needs to copy Apex in almost every single way and it’s not even funny.

  14. iminhell-thisishell

    Worst part of the update is this dumb message.

  15. 12amoore

    Why not make it the blue shield cracked symbol like normal.. sometimes I wonder if they like messing with us

  16. big_flopping_anime_b

    This happens to me Every. Single. Time. It’s like they can’t help themselves and change shit that doesn’t need changing.

  17. awdsrock

    Lmao, I thought i was the only one. I get so used to switching to my secondary for the finish getting caught in the gun switch

  18. DeadpuII

    I stop shooting sometimes. I get EXP, I move on!

  19. haldolinyobutt

    The way it was before was perfectly fine and everyone understood it and no one was complaining. They can fuck up a cup of coffee.

  20. PossibleMechanic89

    Yes! Bamboozled me many times last night.

    Such a stupid bunch of people running this game. I just don’t understand their logic and then the fact they don’t test this shit before hand it mind blowing. This new addition is distracting and clumsy but we’ll have to wait a minimum of weeks before they revert back. With stupid things like this to the amazement of how dead the skins are blueprints are I don’t know why they still bother. They’re putting in the time yet we’re getting 20% of the results compared to Blackout or even Cold War when new things would be exciting, now they just seem to be shit at their job in other words.

  22. biggieballa

    I fucking hate this. Such a useless addition.

  23. Firm-Promotion-189

    Man I was just saying this. I got rekt on more than one occasion thinking I downed someone only to find out I just cracked them

  24. ROGU3G0DD3SS

    shoot tier 3 bots in the arm, they die faster that way

  25. Thisisrazgriz3

    Its meant to still give u satisfaction when sniping since u cant 1shot ppl

  26. ExpressMechanic4089

    Same here it’s the dumbest thing ever. Well besides vomit loot but that’s obvious

  27. Moon-Dogg1e

    The main reason is to connect it to the respawn timer. Any activity tied to reducing spawn time shows like a prompt. You will see it pop up when you run 20+ meters as well. Which is very useful tbh.

  28. just tried resurgence on here. that armor break thing almost made me uninstall the game lmfaooo its so bad

  29. TurbulentMuscle0

    So stupid, just patch it and change it to downed. The number with xp is just lame this ain’t multiplayer.

    Baffles me what these devs think sometimes.

  30. Rorshak16

    Seems like something that’ll need patching. Asap.

  31. venividivigo

    You guys bitch about anything and everything

  32. Commando_ag

    Or at least put it in the settings and allow us to turn it off if we don’t want it!

  33. NoPin4245

    SAME THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM.Its damn near impossible to tell if you armor broke or downed someone when fighting multiple enemies. I literally just git 2nd in a game because I pushed last guy thinking I downed him and was switched to secondary as he kills me

  34. THESHADYWILLOW

    wait did you not down him? It shows the little indicator bottom right of your crosshairs

  35. If only they had a good system they could have based this on…

  36. KingAragorn47

    Fucking awful change. Possibly the worst decision they could have made. So annoying.
