By this i mean the little red things for example the infantry marker is a red box with a cross through it

i thought can we enclude to these a green FOB marker for possible firebase placement and also things like repairs need here one as well

disscuss

Eh... IMO, stuff like that is probably better carried out through VOIP and in-game text, and now that the markers take 60 seconds to "reload," they should be reserved for spotting the enemy.
Plus, I know someone will confuse the markers, and possibly attack said location, instead of building there, or vice versa.

What i always wanted as a commander was a marker for "supplies needed here" Squad leaders get them, why not commander?

until the DEVs work around the 60second per marker thing I doubt anything like this can be done.

can't they make the timer shorter? surly its doens't need to be 60 seconds why not instead just have delay on when it appear on everyone else map for example 20-30 second dela untill it appears on the map

If they had their way, it would be almost instant, but they don't. The vBF2 Patch 1.5 hard-coded the amount of time it took for a drop because it "fixed" the spammages of supply crates, UAVs, cars, etc.

They said then 1.5 came out that they should find a workaround for that, by not using the spotting system. This should come soon, at least thats the impression they gave back then.

I would like new Attack markers and move markers, that must be easy to fix.
