One of the major things I had a problem with last night while I was playing was feeling wildly disoriented once I spawned. I know what point I picked, so technically I knew where I was, however, the mini map seemed very limited in it's ability to help me navigate to the nearest fight, capture point, or objective.
Arrows are helpful, however I'm thinking that maybe panning the map up a bit might help to get more objects and interactions on the map to make it useful. I understand to limit the use of that total view perspective you get when spawning - because then you could just overlay that and use the total field view to your advantage.
I'm not a huge supporter of "hand holding" the player to an objective with bright shinny lights and glitter - but knowing which way to go so i'm not racking up the death count for my team would be helpful. |

Are you suggesting to increase the size? If the fighting is close to me, I can always determine general direction with the mini-map. Or maybe I'm just not understanding your suggestion? |

Yeah I don't think the mini-map shows enought info either. IMO it needs to show much more of the battlefield, I've respawned a few times and I was far away from the action and the map was just useless as there wasn't anything on it. And colored arrows pointing out the direction of something like the closest enemy, friendly or capture point would be cool. |

I would like the minmap to show a wider area but no to arrows showing where you should go, if you dont know where tp go ask your team. Also what does the minimap show? It doesnt show anything on my game except null cannons. It could show a dot for dropsuits and a block for vehicles. |

I had the same problem to start with, just remember the spawn map north at top and the minimap has a north indicator.
that said an adjustable zoom or a zoom based on suit, class, or gear would be nice |
