Larger or Expandable Health Bar

[DeathsBeast]

Rather self-explanatory. I hate dieing, that health bar eludes the mind sometimes and BOOM, like just happened to me, you're dead, and you're staring at your health bar like "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME I WAS ABOUT TO DIE? " So, I'm more for the option to expand it, where it takes up the entirety of the vertical portion of the screen and a small width horizontally, probably on the left side. You can click through it, and it's transparent enough to get a good look through but still see it enough to remind you you're about to die.

it is good enough,

health bar should also expand when u buy armour, so it actually looks like ship has more durability

would be nice to have a larger HP bar (and/or) a optional HP bar right under your ship.

or maybe insta heals that could be bought for CRYONITE, NOT GOLD. Payers shouldn't get exclusive access to ideas that non payers came up with

Thats a good point, and also something like that would have to be expensive on what type of ship however maybe it can be used when your not in red alert or in orbit.

Well, then nobody wouls use it since a repair dorid only steals around 30 seconds, not worth wasting cry unless it's ridicilously low

Do what i do, make a private squad, then move the squad window where you think it's best. That way, you'll have 2 health bars.

It already expends, sorta. When you get armour on a ship you'll notice that it'll go red a lot slower compared to when you've got no armour on. Plus, all you have to do is learn to gage the damage of different weapons, when you get shot you can usually tell straight away roughtly were to use your droid. Though they DID used to have this item in the shop where you're repair droid would be auto activated for you once your ship took a certain amount of damage. They could probably bring that back and no one would complain, it' doesn't give the paying player any great advatage, it's just gives 'em the ability to concentrate more on teh fight than worrying about the repair droid.

What you just said makes no sense, it goes down slower is not expandable... Learning to gauge shots doesn't help me either... I'm not asking for alternative solutions to my problem, I am suggesting an expandable health bar.

I want it to EXPAND..... BIGGER, I want it to be BIGGER! REALLY BIG! ACROSS THE SIDE OF MY SCREEN! Do caps help? >_>

Some people...

 

[Toorimakun]

yah that isn't expanding that is taking less damage >.<

another thing about the HP bar i don't like is it doesn't go to your true HP right away... there have been a few times when i or a party member was under attack and HP bar was going down but since it goes down slowly we died at like 1/2 life.

EXP: if total hp is 100 and i get hit for 50 i would like it to go directly to 50 not go 100...99...98... and so on.
