I am with you on the Kill feed. Some maps are garbage and do not deserve to be in the MA. Radar induces fights, which is a plus.

Forget the old maps. Would be much better to have new maps that are suited for today's #s, along with people's attention spans today. I still feel as though far bases really impede the fights and allow hoarding to be easier once the cap is in place. If back fields are too far, the hoard will go on as people dont want to roll 10 minutes to fight a hoard from a back field.

I believe a few maps are too big and need to be removed once newer maps are made. I'd love to see about 20 maps in rotation even if they get rolled quickly.

If Hitech wants kills to show up, it should be in a smaller text box on the right side of the screen that can turned off. One thing I dislike about it is, it gives you away as soon as you shoot a guy down. Now all the enemies around you know it's you.

Yes I am aware it can be disabled.   +1 though to have it filtered back to the way it was.

I am really enjoying seeing how often one particular players dies though.

More clearly...

+1 on not the way it was in 1998 and of very recent where there is an endless noise-stream of kills.

Options
However, if the stream of kill #3, #4, #5...of rearm abuse dudes could be filtered out and everything else kept on, 200 pilot posts and standard system messages could more easily be seen.

Another way is to make the stream of #n killed noise really light gray so other messages are easier to distinguish and read.

The biggest problem with the kill spam is it over flows the box and everything streams too fast.  Several other threads requesting it be done away with or made an option.  I would prefer to see another option to see only the system messages that only go to the individual player such as gun down, hanger down or ??? shot you down etc.  The kill spam is more than just annoying it really negatively affects game play for those interested in communication with team mates.

It does not affect team communications. If you choose to leave it in the middle of your other coms then that is by choice.

Yes it does if you want the other information as stated.  Really don't think you are reading the posts.

I did and you repeatedly ignore the fact you cannot separate the desired information from the kill spam.
