Re: An alternative to spotting?


I don't see how spotting is necessary for PS2. Or atleast in a way thats similar to battlefield where it reveals exact location.

Maybe when you "spot" or click on an enemy you see in the distance it triggers voice macro commands.

In the old game you could go through a list of macros using buttons to say things like "incoming MAX units!" maybe in some form you could have spotting trigger these sorts of audio cues that would relay basic information to people near you. In the real world all you can do is describe if your on the ground as a soldier. Simple descriptions would be enough. For more detailed information people are going to take care of that anyways in chat and in voice channels. With so many players playing you will always have something to do and shoot at.

keep spotting simple, let someone shout out if they see a MAX or a cloaker nearby so I can keep wits about me, but no more information is needed, especially when it can be taken care of in chat and voice channels.
