As it currently is, just having some transparent red text that says "recharging" is pretty uninformative. I'd like to know when exactly it will be ready again - and I know it's a fixed time, but why does the UI not show this, especially when there's no other visual/auditory information given to the player (no animation or audio cues)? Not only that, but the text oscillates between like half-transparent to fully transparent. That, along with the dull red color, makes it not stand out very much, so it's easy to miss it in the chaos of combat.

I'd just like there to be a small meter alongside the ammo count that shows the progress on the recharge. It, along with the ammo count, should also be visible regardless of whether the pistol is equipped or not. That way you'll be able to tell if, when, and how much you're able to shoot at all times rather than only when you're holding the pistol.

Thanks for the suggestion on this!
