Make Weapon- and Armor-Level visible

_Necro_

<div class="IPBDescription">for both teams</div>Hello,

I will try to keep it short, because of my bad knowledge of the English speak.
I think that both teams need to know which weapon level the other team currently has. Example: On level 0 the bullet effect is like now. On level 1 the bullets are simply orange. On level 2 red and on level 3 blue or something. This way its less frustrating as skulk dieing within seconds, because now you know that the weapon level was this high and you have to adjust your attacks more to ambush.

To show the armor level, you may have to add new marine models to make it visual for the aliens. Same for the armor level of the aliens. This may be a huge load of work, but i think it would be much more catchy for new players to learn the mechanics of the game, if they are visible.

Good idea.

For aliens they could change the colours of some part of the models like the skulks teeth so you know what you're dealing with :)

I think people have already recommended numerous forms of this, but I'll still +1 the thread to try and get the devs to put this in soon. I hate that this keeps coming up, but a wonderful example of this is starcraft 2. You can easily tell what upgrades your enemies have by just glancing at their models. Each upgrade changes the model a little more. I would love to see this in place for all upgrades, structural and player.

"+1 abortions for some."

I agree, tho this is something very minor and can probably wait until the game is flagged stable.
