No minimap alternative.

[Anxiety]

I am WELL aware that the idea of no mini map has been suggested , this is not what it is .

Okay so from what some people have said they want the minimap becuase it mimics real life 3d awareness , what if they added something like they have in 2142 , but to a FAR less technological standard , and far less efficent ,

for those that do not know what happens in 2142 when you spot an enemy a diamond is placed on them , on your screen , in relation to there position , maybe add this but to more of a military kind of thing, and make it limited to maybe . . . a 25 meter radius around the person.

also if it was added it wouldn't spot out the exact location of an enemy , just the general area.
So to dot point my idea

1. get rid of the minimap
2. add a on screen "SPOTTING" system
3. like 2142 but much less efficient and techological .

thanks guys , tell me your thuaghts.

sounds like a fair compromise, but in my opinion the fewer things in the hud the better, it is a reality mod.

On one condition I would agree. We have maps. Like the fold out ones.

[Anxiety]

thaat would be the idea , OR if we are looking for even more realism the on screen "SPOT" would not be active in sandstorms , orr night time ,

they could also wisk up a gps thing , and maybe make it a weapon so you have to pull out the gps before you can look at the map - note this is a joke.

I didn't know BF2142 had this but I suggested something identical a while back - basically similar in presentation to the Operation Flashpoint engage target icon

For those who know nothing about what we are on about its also in ghost recon 2 advanced warefare , the diamonds, the differance is that they appear to things you see . which is not what we want.
