    As title, add a reminder that pops up when a specific weapon in your vehicle has low ammo.

    Normally, we have our eyes to read the number.

    But during some tense combat we can't be bothered to read them, a hint when you have low ammo would be handy.

    What difference would that make? If you are too busy to read the ammo display then you are just as likely to miss the hint unless you want a HUGE OBTRUSIVE "AMMO LOW" hint in the middle of the screen.

    A lot.
    If this makes no difference for you....
    1: You are good at tracking your vehicle ammo.
    2: Sadly, you just die too fast.

    You don't know how many times I've seen people with "I HAVE NO AMMO" written on the face and still fighting like they have ammo. Simply because it's not intuitive to keep tracking down vehicle ammo if the battle is eating 99% of your brain usage.

    In fairness if a fight uses 99% of your brain you probably need more smarts :) Ive slipped up here once or twice but I think thats mainly due to being used to unlimited ammo. As time goes on I pay more attention to it and I assume others would be doing the same

    Yes, if I have 50 ping then fuck me for using 99% of my brain during vehicle combat.
    Plus I am not doing a shitty job, optimizing requires exponentially higher work on it.
