1: Sometimes when I spawn I have no idea where my squadmates are because they're out of the range of the minimap, and I need to find them. I may be looking for a specific squadmate by his or her names.
2: Sometimes I want to find the squad leader so I can follow, and need to know where he or she is specifically.
[SOLUTIONS] For 1: Much like lettered objectives (null cannons), have the direction, name, and distance of all squad members visible in the player's HUD. This way the player will be able to easily locate their squad, or the specific squad mate they are looking for. Names of squad members should be attached to their green dots and be instantly visible in the overhead maps also.
For 2: The squad leader's identification icon on the HUD should look different from the rest of the squad's icons; this will allow the squad leader to be instantly seen and easily followed by the rest of the squad. This squad leader icon should be visible on the overhead map also, and the minimap.
This is not a big issue, but I believe that the location of your squadmates should always be known, and your squad leader should always be instantly identified; these changes to the HUD would greatly help with this. Thank you for reading.
This is top priority in the same way as adding a system in the audio comm so that squad leaders can cross-chat with other leader specifically while still having their squad on audio. Much like MAG. Intra-team comms are at the moment pretty much inexistant.
Regarding squad leader, he shoult get a specific marker indeed, but i still think he should also work as a constant objective. meaning any action done nearby would be rewarded by bonus WP. Everything to incentize player in moving as a squad. Even random players.
I dont think those changes are that hard to make but they would add a lot to the game UI in term of teamplay. |
