Character status

Character status is indicated by various icons shown on the HUD in the upper-right corner of the screen. Depending on your difficulty settings, some of the indicators listed below may not be displayed in your game.

Icons

Visible when your character is within enemy sight. Pulling out weapons, acting suspiciously, or committing crimes is not the best idea.
Visible if your character has been detected as a threat and is within enemy sight. If you are at a distance, concealed, or in the dark, it will take longer for the enemies to recognize you. When this happens, the icon will gradually fill up, giving you a brief chance to hide.
Visible if your character is wanted. Its fill level represents how much heat your character has, which reduces over time as you remain hidden.
Visible if your vehicle is wanted. Its fill level represents how much heat your vehicle has, which reduces over time as the vehicle stays out of sight.
Visible if your character is considered a combatant. This is caused by carrying weapons, using military vehicles, and wearing military attire - or wearing no attire at all.
Visible if your character is within an illegal area.
Visible if your character is undercover, which means it’s impersonating an enemy soldier.
