Since the 1.4 update the health bars no longer show over players unless you are looking directly at them. 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. |

I only ask these question because your answers are going to be crutial to help finf a sollution to your problem. But I could just have said look at your bloody radar if its blue hes a friendly because I just think its your battlefield awareness thats at fault not the scanning mechanics. Tgey were intended to make this game much more tactical and heres the key word communication based. |

Try running a Tank. You see the tank way before the icon turns up much less turns up red or blue. I have sent email apologies more than once; Oops! Thought you were a Red.
This is just CCP/Shanghai's way to sell Active Scanners and suck the SP for them. And you will probably need as much as this event is going to reward us with.
Fun. 
At least they finally work. That is an improvement. |

To those replying look at the radar, I am referring to close range. 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. |

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. |

Red, blue, green. See red shoot, see green follow, see blue drop hive and walk away. Seems easy enough... |

Have you had your eyes checked lately sir? I hear a good pair of bifocals can assist in reading, writing and video games as well as distance vision so that when you are on the beach you can look out over the water and see letters on the sides of the boats floating there.
I feel the new chevron is quite adequate to see mercs and gives us a degree of stealth rather than having it blop all over the screen in bright highly visible colors. |

Why yes they did, I am referring to what people termed DL spam covering the map. Now it is less noticeable. |

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

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.

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. |
