    @captain-knyt it isnt "boosted", players now just care more about this topic.

    @captain-knyt Good job team! Removed your talk of places we don't allow here!

    100% old hit markers are just better

    Makes no sense why it was removed, should be a toggle between them.

    @captain-knyt it was promoted but it's still real people expressing their real opinion so I wouldn't call it boosted cus it's not artificial

    Yeah as i like both hit markers it would be great to have option to change it 100% down for this

    I completely agree, the old hitmarker felt so much nicer.

    I completely agree. The original hitmarker wasn’t just faster and smoother in how it faded—it also has a lot of nostalgia and matches the Sea of Thieves art style far better than the current version.

    Since the modern hitmarker already has an option to show a red kill confirmation, it would make sense to carry that over if the old hitmarker returns. At the same time, players should still be able to use the old hitmarker either with or without the red kill indicator, just like we can toggle other settings now. This would let everyone personalize it to their liking without losing any current features.

    This would be another Rare W. Adding a toggle option to switch between the old and the new hitmarker is a win for everyone. It wouldnt bring any advantage or disadvantage to those using the old hitmarker since you can change to the one you like the most.

    Ever since the new hit markers where added ive always missed the old ones and i really wish it was at least and option to still use the legacy markers.

    I agree with your point on bringing the old hitmarker back since it gave clearer feedback in fights and felt more satisfying overall.

  • scrodingus

    yes yes very cool !!

  • rStoked

    We need a option to turn it in or off, a lot of people want old hit markers but a bit of pepole like new hit markers

    Would be a great addition to make the game more smooth and fresh. In my opinion adding these little quality of life changes is what can make a game more enjoyable to play.
    Just adding it as a toggleable setting so people can decide what hitmarker they want would be perfect.

    This would be huge. I and thousands of other plays have still not gotten over the hitmarker being changed. And like you said, it adds zero advantage, its just for the sake of having the old hitmarker back.

    Much needed as an option, we could switch it on or off ! Would be incredible

    I don’t have much to add to this other than my support. The newer style of hit marker just doesn’t look good and most people seem to agree.

    For me it’s the pointy look it has. Just doesn’t do it for me like the classic one. The only nice thing about the new one is it turns red to signal kills but that’s about it. If a toggle is implemented to have the old one, it probably wouldn’t hurt to also have it turn red when you get a kill.

    very good idea, a toggle would be a great way to keep everyone happy.

    Yes this should definetly be added, theres literally not any reason not to add it because its literally not hard to add at all and looking at the views and comments off this post I think that the community would realy appreciate the old hitmarker beeing added.
    This is literally a win win situation and i dont get how nothing has happened after 18k views and around 70 comments.

    i agree with this ,toggle setting is a good idea , please add it back
