I never even noticed. That should be changed and it’d be neat to see how we could implement that into an ability or something. Can be used as a recon reward but shouldn’t be available info at all times.
I don’t think showing the squad type is smart no matter what side you’re on, players will give each other grief over what squad type there using at any given time.
definitely agree, it’s an extra layer that’s just unnecessary and doesn’t really add much - we can tell from the killfeed or just by looking if planes, tanks, mortars or artillery are present, and can already tell from the scoreboard if engineers are building things.
Can we please have an option to also remove “ranks” and “name decorators” from kill log?
Why is this bad?
I just need information: who killed who with what weapon.
I don’t need visual clutter with stars and ribbons or the info that someone preordered the Pacific.
Very simple. Let’s say you are playing against some particularly skillful opponent and you killed his squad or your squad got killed. You can see what is the squad that he picked up and pick up your next squad accordingly. For example not picking up a tank if the person picked up a plane but picking up a fighter plane or an engineer. You can even monitor if the enemy has a plane in the sky with it which gives a big advantage especially if you are playing on a plane and they just spawned.
you shouldn’t need someone to explain why this is bad, common sense we shouldn’t know what the enemy spawns in before they can get it into position, unreal you have to ask…are you that out of touch like come on man…unreal you guys didn’t even test this update, all it did was nerf things that didn’t need to be nerfed and break the game and add more bugs you guys aren’t going to fix and just close down bug reports and lie to customers, shame on you, what a shameful criminal company, you guys should be ashamed of yourselves and how you treat your customers, go touch grass and get a real job instead of working for garbage can companies like Gaijin who rip people off and encourage pay to win addiction…
it is rare when me and shiivex actually agree on something, the fact they have to even ask is embarassing…garabge dev team, why not ask us before making these decisions in the first place? The ridiculous prices they charge for each squad/vehicle should at least give us some options to vote on certain changes…unreal you guys ask for players to spend hundreds to unlock content for a AA game at best, and don’t even take our input and just break the game
Either way it barely does anything. Outside of vehicles this information largely has no effect, neither positive or negative. Ranking display on the other hand mostly just lead to mass quitting. Not that people would all of a sudden stop doing that now that they’ve built a strong habit (besides, it’s not like the root reason for quitting / not staying is solved anyway).
