Bleeding Icon / Blood icon

[Sir Opalar The Crab]

The blood icon needs to blink when you're bleeding. The down arrows are not noticeable enough. I only usually find out if I'm bleeding when I'm either in the yellow or red and my screen starts to become more black and white. me and several friends have this issue pretty often lol

is it really that hard to check the bottom left of the screen if something happens that could cause you to bleed?

It's the bottom right of the screen. It's not that It's "hard" to check to see if you're bleeding because believe me I've tried to check everytime I've gotten into any conflict, but amongst all the other things that could be going on in that moment, It's very easy to miss. I mean you got three other icons next to it that are almost always showing down arrows in the same color ( white ) unless you're eating/drinking and or inside a building. I know I'm not the only one who has had this problem. The mod had a blinking indicator when you were bleeding so I don's see why it can't have one on the stand alone. It's just conveniant to be able to definitely tell that you're bleeding.

Thanks for the insight on my suggestion though

ha! thats what i get for quickly responding via phone.

i like the newer ui. maybe im used to having to check inventory for status so now that its on the main screen i already feel like its easy.

Would be nice to have a better indicator when bleeding, as it is now i often dont notice im bleeding until my screen starts to go grey.

There is an up arrow if you're gaining blood, and a down arrow if you're losing it.

Yep, and the down arrow will be below the icon and the up arrow will be above.

You might also see blood spurting out of your character, which will be another indicator. I usually don't notice until I see the blood falling out of my character or if I happen to look at the icon.

Totally agree with this. The screen should flash red alittle on the edges or your char should wimper alittle. It can be easy to miss, hence the amount of people moaing their char died after the recent bleeding char bug after update.
You know you were bleeding IRL by the sting pain and wet patch to simulate this they need to add an extra prompt. Your stomach already rumbles when your starving so same thing really.
