Dead Eye -> Vitals

Hi All, How does the dead eye work in online? I have not played story mode yet.
I don't see the animal's vitals when using dead eye. Is there a certain level you have to attain? If yes, where do I see that stats?
All help will be much appreciated.

In Story Mode, Dead Eye slows time and highlights "kill shot" zones on your target. As long as Dead Eye remains active - time is slowed, thus you have more real-time to take careful aim.

In Online Mode, they cannot change the clock run time - so Deadeye only illuminates kill shot zones (if i recall correctly).

So, in Online - Deadeye is pretty useless since it merely give you information you should already have. (umm... shoot 'em in the head)

Thanx for your reply. My problem is that I lose one star, no matter what. I creep up on animal, almost to toughing, but always lose a star. Began to think that it is the repeater, and I need to buy better gun? I don't know.
Also, I don't get the kill zones with my dead eye, thus my post above

different animals have different requirements for getting a perfect kill. For most animals tho just use a rifle, not a repeater, and shoot them in the head once.

I know a day late in reply, if you focus on the animal and 'show info' of the animal it will give you the weapon of choice for a clean kill, which will not detract any star when you take it down.
