Works well in Battlefield and ought to work well in Planetside. I support it.

It definitely doesn't work well in Battlefield. It's an extreme casualization because it tells you where to place the aiming sight. It also distracts people from playing objectives. If someone sees a 3D spot, even if the guy is so far away that he is no threat, most people will stop what they are doing and go after it.
2D spotting is the appropriate system, because it still tells you where the enemy is, but you have to actually find them with your eyes, you don't just place your aiming sight on the 3D marker.
