How About a "FRIENDLY ICONS ONLY" Event?

[swoopy]

What could be done is that at 6.0K away it will tell u what plane it is, and at 1.5K or less u know if its freind or foe. This will probably add more realism to the game but one draw back is the radar cons, cause u know whos freind or foe. In this case the whole dar system has to be changed to suit.

No icons would make to too real and it will loose the fantastic gameplay it has.

Would like to see some sort of a change tho:)

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:  I am not proposing a "no icons" event.  I am suggesting a "FRIENDLY ICONS ONLY" event.

Swoopy:

Since this would be an historical event, once you know the type of plane you'll also know if it's friend or foe.  Also, the in flight dar would be off in most scenarios.

Vermillion:

You're right about the fun factor.  I'm disappointed to hear that "many of the players" complained about the reduced (d3.0) icon range used in most events.

I suppose a "FRIENDLY ICONS ONLY" event would attract mainly hardcore players.  So maybe a squad vs. squad engagement?

In WB3  the, err, how is the equivalent to the CT called there, historical arena?, about one year ago there were no enemy icons enabled, friendly icon range was down to 270(?) yards.

At that time the main arena was EMPTY.


Do it. It's fun.
