Doom 4 (Doom 2016) Multiplayer: What’s the difference between red and yellow hit numbers

doom-2016

When I hit an enemy player, a number pops up showing how much damage I've done to the player. But sometimes the number is red and sometimes it's yellow. What's the red for and what's the yellow for?

Best Answer

The yellow indicator shows normal hits to any bodypart except the head and the red indicators are for headshots , so normaly the red indicator shows a higher number due to the fact that headshots deal more damage.
