Yeah this is a resuggestion, I even think some community member remade the mini map for some PR maps to have the kind of map you talk about.

i like the idea of teh map looking differently.
The current see through, straight map is a bit vBf2. they could add a white background to make it look like paper(and not see through)

Yeah, just get rid of the satellite picture and get a proper topographical map.

Yup, haven't kept up to date with what's going on with it but it seemed pretty cool:

By the way, the already suggested suggestion thread is a better first stop then the search engine before you post new threads

^ it was generally agreed that topographical maps were not appropriate for some maps, that sat imagery was being used as print outs on the ground.
There is a Ross Kemp clip showing that, and also I remember Ed Macy's book 'Apache' mentions Helmand Province at least was too dangerous to map.

Perhaps it would be nice to have paper maps but there are probably things the devs can do to enhance gameplay that will take far less effort.
I'm not quite sure exactly what all the suggestions in the thread are though, the standard of education up north must be getting quite bad.
