Yes please. I dont mind if they keep the setting for it to be red if someone get killed, but in my opinion it look much better then the current one

bring it back now.

@ujamboo yes please asking for this months

i never got to experiance old hitmarker but from what i seen in old sot videos id love to change to the old hitmarker

I really like the Idea and Hope it gets seen and Implemented!

Honestly the old hitmarker just felt better in fights, a toggle option would be the perfect solution so everyone gets what they want.

@saevrrn Sucks that condition is impacting your experience on the seas, really hope rare addresses this.

@infamous8117 I agree it would be a really cool thing to see return as a toggle-able option in settings, but it doesn't even only impact pvp. I'm a player that loves stacking loot and doing forts and I just think the new ones just hurt the aesthetic of the game, and really only remind me of overwatch.

great idea

add old hitmarker

YES! Also since season 19 is a PVP focused season it would be a perfect time to introduce this well missed feature. It would hurt literally nobody and take only a few minutes to add back from a programing perspective.

hope the devs see this we need it back

@burnbacon it looked much cleaner than the current one and was unique

Bringing the old hitmarker back would be a fantastic idea, especially as an accessibility setting due to how i suffer from Visual processing disorder, making it much slower for my brain to process a static hitmarker. So the old animated hitmarker would be great!

You’re right, this should just be a simple toggle.

It’s not even just preference, it’s an accessibility thing. Some players react better to the old hitmarker or find it clearer, so forcing the new one can make the game feel worse.

They should also let people choose whether they want the red kill marker on the old hitmarker too, since the new one already has it.

There’s no competitive advantage either, so it wouldn’t affect balance, just gives players choice. Easy win for everyone.

In my eyes the current hitmarkers aren’t problematic, but this tiny QOL change for players who prefer the old design compared to the new one would be a small and easy touch. I think it would be worth it

@rare-jumbie said in Bringing the old hitmarker back:

I’ll never understand how an account that is ten months old is asking for the ‘old hit marker’. They got rid of that before you were born. Where does your nostalgia come from? All those cringey YouTube videos with bad electronic music and players TDMing with 200 FOV and ‘Cursed’ graphics settings? What a reach.

To be fair, that's the forum account, not their game account that's 10 months old.

But I do think it's very obvious this is a co-ordinated campaign (probably from a Discord or Twitch community), and that is less likely to gain favour with Rare.

Although, personally, I have no issue with the current hitmarkers, so this isn't really something I care enough about.

@burnbacon I understand where you're coming from. However, the main reason I want it back, which seems to differ from everyone else’s response is that I have poor eye sight and I really struggle to see the newer hitmarkers. I didnt have this issue with the older more animated ones, and would love to see an option for them to be enabled as an accessibility setting.

Also there is not a single advantage that one of these hitmarkers would gain over the other so I dont see a reason not too add it.

Right...I dont see a single advantage to bring back something Old either. Heck I dont even recall or remember what the old hitmarker was....
So why bring something back if it changes nothing.

@redcubesot 💀

That's a really good idea
