Are you saying that not having the current intel system and only relying on the informants. UAV and the recon units would only work on organized matches? That makes no sense since it's actually alot easier to figure out where a cache is on a public server then on an organized event because of all the lack of discipline and seriousness. You can easily notice where a cache is based on higher value kits and spawning enemies.

The current intel system gives you the exact location of the cache about 90% of the times if you have played it long enough to understand how it works. And even if you didn't have the big red diamond symbol on the map, you could easily predict where the cache is just my looking at that area with the UAV.

I do enjoy something that adds extra teamwork and new roles in the game specially if its challenging. So if the removal of the current intel system and adding the informants would make it harder to get a cache, you can always reduce the amount of caches the blufor needs to take down.

Onil wrote:This is actually a re-suggestion.

It was suggested by me years ago and I even did it myself and tested it in game. The devs simply ignored it.

If this would get implemented, I would remove the current intel system for the caches. Blufor should use their informants, UAV and recon squads to find where a cache is instead of getting intel based on how many kills they get.

Can Civis disappear on the map?
