While playing ingame, I often forget that the readout even exists. When I do remember it, it's often clunky to use because unlike say, the minimap, you can't just have a quick glance, the information is often hard to see. So I went into paint ('Cause I suck with photoshop) to make the readout I would like to have ingame.
http://i.imgur.com/zZVlh0J.jpg
Notes: -A frame around the readout so it would be easier to locate at a glance the general location of the readout. -The class of the suit you're fighting against is in big letters at the top, to make it 100% clear of what exactly you're fighting. -Tiered the information from top to bottom, from most important to least important. Range
Shields
Armor
Meta level
-Just like the current readout, any active modules like resists and damage mods are put in bright red letters -To the right there is the effectivnes of your weapon against the target, so you could always tell at a glance if it's a good idea to engage
Since this is in paint, it's hard to fix mistakes after you saved the image. However, here is the small changes I would make: -Remove the "WARNING" part of the red message, keeping just the "damage mod" part. The least amount of reading to get to the information you need the better. -Move the range readout to the same area as the effectiveness readout, and use the same size numbers and letters. -Since more space is cleared that way, increase the size of the meta level and red message.

Too big. Remove frame. Also we don't need stuff stating what's armour and what's shields - shields are the top one and armour the bottom one. Also MLT/ADV/PRO should be removed entirely as it is useless in an actual gunfight.

MLT/ADV/PRO IS important to know what you're going up against.

Yes this needs to be changed. Also I'd like a more obvious visual AND audiological cue when I've recieved a warbarge strike. The place on the screen where this message pops up now is way to easy to miss. |

Maybe the text and box can appear in different colours depending on your efficieny rating. I.E. if you're below 50% it will be read. |

Similar to how the AI says: "RDV Request Accepted" and "Deployment Successful".

It's there to make finding the text easier.
