Not sure if it's just me but I'm getting a bit fed up with the cluttered and not very helpful minimap.
I'm sure there is lots of other game systems that need some TLC but the minimap to my mind is an integral part of a PS soldier life. It can mean the difference between life, death, victory and defeat and from such a small tool. So what's wrong with the minimap Clutter Given the map resolution vs size of icons on it when in bases or large groups of people/vehicles you can just see a mess, where colours and icons run into each others so attempting to discern the battlefield unfolding around you is impossible. Maybe some options to be able to turn off some of the icons you don't need might help but over all a combinations of changes is needed. No auto Zoom in & Out When you get to bases and into buildings the minimap doesn't auto zoom in so you can get a better picture of the building/buildings layout, which in turn feeds the whole clutter mess. I feel their should be a standard 3 levels of zoom Outdoors: Big wide open spaces should be the most zoomed out Base Courtyards: this is the medium zoom area Inside buildings: this is the most zoomed in. However there should be options like the brackets keys [ & ] that you can press to change zoom mode easily. (I know veterans sounds familiar) Phantoms: Big bug with the minimap is the amount of phantom enemy you always see on it. They range from infantry to vehicles and aircraft. Game needs to filter these out better. (unless it's a infils decoy but 99% aren't) Enemies are in our platoon: A recent bug that's cropped up is enemy vehicles and planes have started being seen as friends, when they are decidedly unfriendly Big Minimap: When you press H you get a wonderful larger minimap that's helpful but unfortunately you loose that very nice feature above it What location am I in & What's the faction influence. Should be when we press H we still get that wonderful larger minimap but with the addition of also seeing where the heck you are and who owns what scaled to size next to it. I'm sure I've forgotten something else I was to add but it's to early still and I want MOAR caffine Please add anything you think could benefit the minimap or if you up for a tussle some well thought out counters heh
