You must have something that deactivates it in a config you use. Normally it is always on, even on lowest settings. There must be a thread here some sites back in where a guy asks about the red shimmer from healthstations in a config, and he gets an answer what to activate to see them. Probably the same thing that you need to do. Look it up.

just got the bog standard install , it auto detected to max and afaik i havent changed anything other than head bobbing , sensitivity , fov and some key bindings. using just the in game menu’s

on my screen the difference between an enemy cobalt sawbones and a member of my own team is just the i guess you would call it low lighting areas of the model are a slightly lighter shade of blue theres absolutely no red anywhere!

[quote=“elegantRoyalty;15239”]My team is blue, the enemy is red this is simple and easy to spot good simple classic design.

so i would love to know what smart ass decided it would be a good idea to make the highest tier rarity (attainable) also blue. so now im blue my teams blue and so are the enemy with cobalt loadouts. did everyone really think this was a good idea? ok a lot of time you can see the name display over head , but a lot of time when you meet when coming around a corner you cant.[/quote]

This is why i equip my cobalt when on red team, it will cause a second pause sometimes, when you flank the enemy sometimes… perfect, hope they dont change it.

Some more colour-blind friendly options would be great - red is one of the most commonly problematic colours.

In terms of IFF, I have to go by the triangle above friendlies’ heads and the red glow on enemy mines are practically invisible too. (Mines are noisy enough at least to not be a problem).

i think only on a handleful of times when things were really hectic did i need to do a double take on a cobolt player to check what team

Tho also in my game i do not see enemy health bars - so thats a thing. Ive never used customer configs (since open beta) and everything else is fine. Might i have inadvertently disabled them somehow?
