Having the outline color linked with shield color can make it harder to see the strength of the target’s shields. I hope 343 can separate outlines and shield color in the accessibility tab by giving players a new option such as “Friendly Shield Color” “Enemy Shield Color” alongside “Friendly Outline Color” and “Enemy Outline Color.” This new addition can be useful to players who want a red outline and yellow shields for enemies or a blue outline and green shields for teammates; also, this can help colorblind players see visual cues better than before. This is just something on my mind that I’ve told many Halo fans, and they agreed, so might as well make a Waypoint post to see if it’s not too late for 343 to implement this feature before launch.
I do wish there was a way to have outlines, but keep shields yellow. For me it’s not an accessibility thing as much as liking the classic look of yellow shields.
Enjo knows though, maybe they tested that and it got too busy.
