Disappearing name tags

Post by M_Striker »

Hello, I come to you all to make a suggestion about the disappearing name tags. Currently, we have it so ALL (friendly) name tags appear at a relatively close distance to you. What I suggest, is that, name tags don't show up at all UNLESS, you look directly towards (point your gun) at the friendly. THEN, his name should appear. In reality, You would know the names of the men in your squad, but you wouldn't know who it was if the man was in the corner of your eye. Online with a squad that changes all the time, it is impossible to distuingish soldiers without name tags (Plus not every game model has different facial features) But I think this would overall contribute to this little detail. This would also make the game look prettier, without blue/green name tags hovering over everyone. In terms of not knowing who is ur squad leader... just look for the guy with the big backpack who's closest to you.

Opinions?

I'm not sure about it either, perhaps we could leave it as it is now, but just as a matter of curiosity: have you people ever experienced seeing the enemy tag? I mean, happened to me like 5 times, and once I was gunning in a Hummvee and saw the name of the enemy gunner at his Vodnik. Pretty weird, huh?

I say we give one team red skins and the other team blue skins and settle this once and for all.

I found this sentence quite funny and since this is a war game forum I will put it here. No offense to the french just a good laugh.

Yep it happens everytime I stand next to or on top of an enemy vehicle and look on it for like 5 seconds.

Yes, you will see enemy tags when you are directly next to them/it
