Please "quote" then to avoid confusion in the future - thanks.

I see you have some "passion" about this minimap "issue" you seem to have, why not run a poll, to get a feel from the community - would be interesting?

Yes I'm sorry about that but I was writing the post while you replied.

There is already one, and I doubt the results would be much different, also I don't think players won't see the tactical inhancement and imersion untill they are forced to play without it.

In the beginning, probably yes, however when people start figuring out that their run and gun idiot vanilla tactics end up in getting them negativ points and teamkills, some will say: TiS mOd sux i cant PWnd idont want too play tis, they will leave (good riddance), some will start to use more realistic tactics and VOIP because they are smart and have figured out that it is the best way to stay alive. Maybe we will even be able to attract more tacticaly minded players from other comunitys.

And your point is?.... It's not very hard pressing the B button and say "Enemy infantry, rooftops at 12 'O clock.

How am I wrong exactly? Am I wrong just because someone has posted pictures of some experimental military equipment?
It lies within the name of the MOD--> Project REALITY, ergo a moddification for Battlefield 2 which tries to emulate a realistic combat expirience. Now if I am so "wrong" I will ask you this question: How come none on the Bohemian Interactive forums has complained about there not beeing minimaps on the soldier HUD's? After all it is supposed to be the most realistic war simulator available to the general public. But it doesn't stop there, what about VBS (Virtual Battlespace) which is a tactical traning simulator made for the military, why does it not have a HUD system showing your beloved minimap? Wouldn't the military request such a feature if it was realistic?

The answear is simple, it is not realistic, I.E. it should not be in this MOD.
