Your top annoying bugs and "quality of life" issues

[StAugustine]

I apologize if someone has suggested this already, I didn't have time to read through 13 pages of replies.


I would love spectator mode POV so I could fly around the continents and take great screenshots/videos.

Thanks for everything!!

Without doubt some of these things will have been mentioned in the pages before, but here's my list of quality of life items:

Loadouts
- More loadouts. I would love to have 10 loadouts per class.
- Faster loadout selection with buttons/hotkeys instead of dropdown menu.
- Vehicle loadout switching at ammo towers/air pads.

Outfits
- An outfit logo that is visible on all uniforms and vehicles.
- An in-game outfit list, and allow each outfit to make their own promotional page with some tickboxes to set outfit characteristics (outfit size, voice comms, infanty-only etc.) People looking for an outfit should be able to filter the list and have an easier time finding the right outfit.
- Remove outfit/squad/platoon grief.

UI/Map
- More waypoints. PS1 had 4. I'd love to have them back as 1 is often not enough.
- Squad health bars.
- More logical voice chat menu (PS1/Tribes style, V-W-A!).
- Ability to display full outfit names instead of tags.
- Ability to display class icons next to a player's name
- Better visibility of squadmembers on the map when they are in a vehicle.

Chat window
- Allow Multiple chat windows
- Chat window should remember the last channel you typed in, regardless of which tab you are in.
- Allow squad/platoon leaders to broadcast text to their squads/platoons that pops up in the center of the screen like the GM broadcast messages do now and similar to World of Warcraft's /rw raid warning.
- If you certed it, allow access to /leader even if you're not squad/platoon leader.
- Seperate tab with kill log.
- Continental broadcast chat.
- Allow chat use while dead.

Classes
- Engineer ammo pack should be ability.

Vehicles
- Shared kills/xp for drivers and gunners.
- Sunderer: Equipment terminal "area" is too big when deployed. Entering the vehicle from the side becomes more difficult.

I'm late, but a voice callout for "I need a gunner!" tops my list.

We already have Autorun and it persists while map browsing.

"=" is autorun.

Same for vehicles although it doesnt persist thru map browse.

1. Option to disable Death Tracking on the Account. Maybe one time SC paid option.
   
2. Death Tracking only per Session and not in total. (Why keep tracking negativ stats ?)
   
3. Tracking of Vehicles Destroyed ( x Vanguard, Prowlers etc destroyed and Rewards for it)
   
4. Outfit points
   
5. Outfit logos for vehicles
   
6. More Equipement Sets, 3 is really weak compared to 10 in the Original

Please adjust or remove Debris damage. It is currently quite annoying to kill an enemy and get ganked by his debris which is quite unpredictable. Especially for aircraft as the debris has no or reduced momentum giving you little to no chance to avoid the debris.

[VGH] Hi!

...is sorely needed. Get to it!

[Mech]

Please re-implement the timers for redploy/recall from Planetside 1 where the timer changes depending on if the zone you're in is controlled by an enemy, by you or is neutral. In addition if the player attacks or is attacked in any way then the redploy should be cancelled.

Also being able to holster our weapons would be really great for immersion and machinimas.

Would also like to be able to disable the in-game anti-aliasing shader.

[SternLX]

I haven't read the whole thread so some or maybe all of these have been asked/addressed.

Outfit/Platoon/Squad

1. Need ability to assign colors to Squads in a Platoon.
2. Ability to mark more than just a Cap point as Defend/Attack when "Squad Objectives" Cert is unlocked. I.E. Generators. Also need ability to cancel Objective buy Q keying the same object.
3. Additional Squad/Personal waypoint marker. Ex: Primary and Secondary Waypoint.
4. Have Outfit MOTD appear onscreen when logging in or changing continents or anytime you spawn in the Warp Gate. Player toggled via Settings.

Vehicles

• Better onscreen hit indicators and ones that last longer. Very difficult to tell were incoming fire is coming from in most vehicles. Especially in flying vehicles.

That's about all I have for now.

N.O. spells NO, debris damage/kills is a great original part of PS2, wish they had it in PS1. I say let it stay.


Oh and deffo more voice macro's as we outlined in my other thread.

Seems like a lot of people don't like it so far.
