When we field command a battle. We are making a lot of very fast paced decisions. To make those decisions I always find myself either hiding in a corner on the map screen. Or dead and waiting longer to re spawn so I can check out what's happening on the map.
After all. It's our job to command the bigger picture not just the area we are standing in.
This is the huge concern of all FCS. Knowing at all times where your players are without cluttering comms asking....who's that on Bravo. Or who the heck is that spinning circles in the MCC
My proposal would be a simple solution. Can you please add a number to people's dots on the mini map and the large map. And with that on the side a legend of the map. With people's names beside numbers.
That way the fc has total command and control. And we all have players who listen on mic. But chose not to speak. Somone we only know they in the game because of the kill feed. This will help us follow up on their compliance with orders.
Another option. Can we have a zoom in and out of our mini map. So I don't always have to go look at the detailed map.
I always get killed on that map screen lol.
those are my short term simple solutions to command and control.
Long term. I would love to add a 17th member to the planetary conquest mode. The commander. He isn't on the ground. He is in the mcc. He has total birds eye view and an extended zoom.
He can give squad objective points...and team objective points. He can see all squads scores and war points and scans and can drop the teams orbitals. This. Would make this game amazing and strategic.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Were you not in STB? If so my memory recalls every time I went against you in pubs (pre-forge range and splash and pre- SR range nerf) I would find you always on the highest ground with a forge. I would keep you pinned back and dramatically reducing your kills from 100m or less in a scout sniper combo. You never could kill me, And I never you. Though it helped that you always had a logistics healer staying out of sight on you.
It is hard for me to take you seriously because of these early encounters, but I do see the wisdom in what you say. That said, I prefer Benjamin Ciscko post over yours, because he is less scrubby, but I personally must digress due to having no argument over your lack of ability and that type of behavior is not forum savvy. GL in your endeavors none the less and pushing threw this agenda as it seems to benifit the community.
When I look down my scope, all I see are dead people.
