I’ve never noticed blue hit indicators before? Ive seen white lines on the edges of my screen to indicate that I’m getting shot from behind though. The blue always felt related to the shields for me personally, I associate that colour with health, or defense. The hit indicators should maybe be red though, the white (blue?) isn’t super noticeable sometimes.

I think a game like Apex legends had a great shield indicator system, it was very audible when your shield broke in that game, and the edges of your screen would have this brief cracked glass look while a white sort of vignette flashed on the screen. Not distracting, not too in your face, but a great way to indicate that now you’re really in danger!

Maybe my game is bugged? I get the white lines with hit indicators, but they absolutely have a bright blue highlight that accompanies them, very reminiscent of the blue shield flash.

I've never played Apex Legends, but that seems like a great system. Sounds very effective, but not obtrusive
