The 'Capslock' map should show your own squad.

That would be so awesome

QFT.

Everyone used the minimap like a crutch. Instead of getting to know your surroundings etc, we just used that thing. Not that it was bad, but I think allowing us to go without will really bring people into the game more in a very very good way. This will 100% be a change that will probably be difficult to adjust to and change your playstyle, but that definitely doesn't mean its wrong.

Your topographical maps would be great on the 'M' map

Anyway I'm very happy to hear that the mini-map is going - it was very unrealistic.

..i'm gonna have to adapt.. i've been using sound and minimap to ID targtes for years. Its gonna be good.

'm' might well get one of my mouse keys

I don't mind the minimap going since I always use the Caps Lock map anyways

there is a delay before the caps lock and m map comes up now thou...

there isnt anyway to make the caps lock map a 'static' map that dosnt have any of ur teams constantly changing troop movements but more like a areal photo of the map like this for e.g

:d uh:

There is going to be so much tk it will hopefully be very funny, until it just gets irritating.
Maybe we could work out some checkphase thing, 2xpage up when you see a hostile. If you dont get a 2xpage down, negative right away then its a hostile for sure


[quote="Razick""]I dont know if you guys are taking your military knowledge from tv shows but you rarely know the exact position of other units. We usually just get an estimate of where our guys should be via designated routes and the trusty radio. [/quote]



I just meant at short range. I would know sgt.bob is by the pier because he just told me 'I'm going to check the pier'.
We dont do that in the game because you'd never hear the end of what every other person is doing, we are playing games over a period of minutes not months.
I agree the minimap was too accurate though

we kind of need the M map to still have all our positions on them as we are not in constant radio contact with all the other squads/members to know ourselves.

I second Brummy.uk

will be good to take your map out of your bergen and take a look to navigate, before you take out enemies. Will be a nice challenge on the new bigger maps.

Minimap gone?

I quess I'm gonna like it, though it will probably cause even more teamkilling..

At first, total chaos and whining. Then, understanding and gratefulness.

so true.

regarding *more tk's without minimap*...
I've played without minimap for months, and I know there are other players playing without it... and let me tell you, those guys have the least TKs in game.
Maybe I had some stupid TKs in the past months - but if you played with me, you know I hardly ever TK. That's why I TKpunish almost always, and I support people TKpunishing me.


EDIT:
regarding M map style, this is what I would like to see when I press M, or CAPS-LOCK
