Ok its obviois you acctually need help so I have a couple of questions I need you to answer first.

1 do you run solo or in a squad?

2 have you used the acctive scanners?

3 have you any sp into passive scanning?

4 what wepon do you use?

What does any of this have to do with whether or not names and health bars are over players? It doesn't.

It is easier to tell who teammates are with more blue above their heads. None of the subjects you mentioned change that fact.

Ok q1 in a squad shows green chevrons .

Q2 acctive scanners help you see blue and redberrys

Q3 increases your scaning potential and what you see.

Q4 your wepon in your hand determins what you see on your line of sight

All thw change in tacnet are designd to be used by a group of 16 mercs working in cohesion the questions I asjed were verry relative so do your homework and acctually read what the devs post before being so dismisive . So blatently you dont want help you just want to complain.

This makes it difficult to tell who is on your team. I find myself shooting at my own team often and them shooting at because of this. We jump around a few seconds fighting before we realize we are on the same team. That litttle notch tag above the head is not enough. Please bring back the health bars.

It is not enough said since it is unclear what you are trying to say. If you are suggesting everyone use a module to be able to tell who is on your team, that is absurd and a waste. Quickly and easily distinguishing teammates from enemies should not require a module, and you should not have to shoot each other to find out, which is what I see a lot of people doing now.

It there are bunch off players in a small space such as in and around a NULL canon, the dots on the radar are overlapped. Also, when someone comes around a corner, they are not on the radar before thy can be seen. In any case, you should not have to look at the radar to tell if someone is a teammmate or enemy. It should be immediatley obvious looking at them, as it was when the big blue status bars were over them before 1.4. Put the status bar back or make the blue tag much bigger and more prominent. It is absolutely a fact that players are not identifying others as teammates immediately anymore. As I said, teammates will run into each other and instantly start shooting because the blue writing and bars are no longer over them. And if it is a mix of teammates and enemies, they shoot at teammates instead shooting the enemy. Everyone must be noticing this sudden phenomenon of friendly fire.

I am only talking about one's own team being harder to identify, not the enemy.

Nothing you have said changes the fact that it is harder to identify teammates with the name tags and status bars removed which is unacceptable.
