Hits and critical hits text hides the view

Am I the only one having this problem ?
I find that the text messages are way too in the middle of the screen, and that’s especially true on planes.
When shooting at targets on the ground, the messages hides the target i’m trying to hit, making it impossible to aim.
Have they been moved or has it always been the case and for some reason i just see it now ?

I dont remember it being on the middle its like in the third top of the screen
Maybe u changed it?
Can u screen shot?

No it’s not in the middle of the screen, my bad.
But it’s roughly at the same place as the aiming reticle which makes it diffcult to aim

Can u show a screenshot?
I dont remember it being a problem for me


This is the "artillery barrage for example, but the same goes for all other text messages on screen.
If there was someone at the end of the road where i’m aiming, good luck noticing it.

Why we still have 0 UI configuration is beyond me. Should be able to move, scale and even outright hide any element that we want these days. Its 2025, any game with poor UI configuration, especially one with any kind of immersion emphasis has failed big time.

The text pop ups could be one of the modules you could edit. I wanted to get rid of a few items in the top left the other day, but nope. Not possible

I dont remeber it disturbing the gameplay tbh

No money is to be made from making QoL changes. It’s always better to print out 70 euro copy paste premiums.

Well it’s very disturbing in 3rd person view and in aircaft, and since it only triggers me now, i assume it got changed recently.

This is a constant annoyance for me when I’m strafing ground targets in an aircraft. The message always has a way of blocking my view of the next target, and I have to kind of guess where the target is under the text.

If I were able to control the placement of the message, I’d prefer it be either directly below the compass, or directly above the action bar (or at the bottom of the screen if the action bar is minimized).

Do kill-shots not count as critical hits in ground arcade?

Just finished a battle where I had 5 kills and 19 hits - and only ended up with 5 crits (which I need for BP tasks).

It took me 2 shots to finish off my last kill, and the first shot was definitely critical - I killed 3 crew and broke the turret.

So IMO I have AT MINIMUM 6 crits in that battle, probably should be even more.

It ain’t really the topic of the thread but anyway I’ll answer.
The way the game counts grits is stupid. It’s one crit PER ENNEMY tank.
If you take out its gunner or if you one shot it, that’s a crit. If you take out it’s gunner two times, then it’s gun and then something else, that’s still one crit.

Also, external elements like tracks don’t seem to count as critical hits, must be a crew member or internal module.

In short : 10 critical hits means 10 kills or 10 different gunners
