Seriously, make it bigger and put it in a color that actually distinguishes it from the background.

I have trouble visually keeping track of it when a lot of stuff is happening in a brawl, I'm taking fire, etc.

My suggestion...make it three times as big and fluorescent green.

Please, God, No!!!! I already don't use the Lock-on missiles because that reticule is absurdly large.

Uhm, the skillmissile reticle is absurdly large, but the arm reticle is absurdly tiny for weapons that you have to actually aim.

Supposedly UI 2.0 is supposed to allow you to change the color of your HUD and customize your reticules...

Anyone know when UI 2.0 is coming ou---oh...wait...nevermind.

He has a point Bilbo, The lil o in the middle of the rest is fairly easy to lose in a hectic moment. Now Bigger... I don't know. Neon green I could see as a first step... Unless it is a bad color for those with color blindness.

It is large enough to be seen while not being too large for accurate fire. It also doesn't completely obscure small targets up close and any target at range. Making it larger would likely do both.

It'd be far better to let us recolor our HUD elements (would mostly fix color blind problems too, as those who suffer would simply need to change their HUD colors to taste). The arm reticule is pretty much fine size-wise.

If it's too large though, it'll cover up too much of your target at range...
I believe it's small for a reason.
Just look at the iron sights on rifles, just a small little dot on the end of the barrel.

However, it'd be nice if the Devs allowed us to change the colours of all the HUD elements.

I prefer the smaller size, as I never have lost it in the midst of combat, and if it were to big, it would obscure my vision.

They could change it to an upside down V, which is a feature I've seen and used on red dot AR-15 sights. It's much more effective than a circle.

I get that you don't want targets obscured at range, but I have visual tracking issues with a tiny red circle against backgrounds that are often orange/yellow/exploding. During a brawl, there's a lot of stuff happening on the screen, and the tiny red circle gets washed out really quickly.
