I managed to edit my health bar to turn red on low health...but the red falls behind the default green so it looks like a dark piece of shit and ugly...just need a way to fix that

Showing a % doesn't sound right.... ingame, you glance at the bar and you can see it's half-way, I can't think of reason to look even more to the left and check wheter it's 45% or 55%...

I'm one of those guys that has it's healthbar next to it's crosshair. All that matters to me is being able to have a healthbar there that's not as big'ass as the one in the top left now, has no background/surrounding graphics and doesn't flash on low health (I think the flashing will be quite distracting next to the crosshair). Maybe I would want to overlay the exact amount of health in the middle of the bar.

Changing colours should be a must for customization, for default, I don't really care.

Out of curiousity: can you hide the number so that you only see the bar?

I like the current system. Being able to tell how much damage you have taken from whatever shot seems very helpful.

I vote for the color change too!

I also liked the system we saw in older videos where each armor had a health bar with a different length. Also, I can't remember if the energy pack increases the actual energy amount, or just the rate at which it changes, but if it's the former, then I think it would be easier to show that by actually increasing the size of the energy bar as well. Using a standard system like that would also make it easier to gauge the approximate damage done by a shot in a visual manner, rather than looking at the number to the left.
