As my title states, I'm wondering if we could switch the mech damage indicators in bars like MW4(Or if it's a planned additon). I have an easier timer interperting that and it would help to see more accurately how much which part is damaged.

They say they are "considering [the HTAL] readout". I don't understand what is to consider. Just make it an option. HTAL is a staple of MW and it would be sad for it not to be in there. It's the most useful way to see your damage per location.

We've been asking for HTAL since the very beginning of Beta. The current armor readout is a lot better than it was formerly, but it's still not as good at HTAL.

The current model is not bad. It shows armor and internals both color coded. In some ways it is better than HTAL IMO when you quickly want to know where you should focus your damage or see the results of your hit. HTAL would be a cool option for nostalgia reasons, but it is not needed.

I would also be very interested in seeing this data. I liked the bar style armor readouts.

I think we should have either HTAL or a numerical display for your own and allied mechs but leave the targetting for enemies as is.

though maybe HTAL on enemies could be a module upgrade of some sort.
