2nd idea would actually be very beneficial.

^agreed^

I like the second idea and what artificialbox said. Go for it, Ben. :)

Instead of their name; their number.
It would just keep it simple in case somebody comes in with a super long name.

I agree with the 2 comments above,

The first idea you sugggested would take out the fun aspects of gameplay, while as the second would enchance them.

I like the second idea.

I also thought it would be cool to show the names of each player underneath their corresponding white circle on the map/minimap. That way it would be much easier to locate certain teammates.

1. This just seems like it defeats the entire purpose of sneaking into position, setting up a sniper hide, and taking a successful shot. Just use the team chat to let your buddies know where you got whacked.

2. This would be pretty awesome - the minimap could be a little bit more useful with this feature added as well as enemies' presence when intel is retrieved. As it stands, the minimap isn't all that useful.

I thought of a few features that might be helpful.

1. Location Tag on Death: Whenever somebody kills somebody else, I think it would be helpful to add the sector, eg "Deuce1 killed Deuce28 in E4," that way you can keep an eye on where your teammates are dying and where to avoid the line of fire.

2. Current Location Tagged Under Map: I also like the idea of displaying your current sector under the minimap, that way you can know where you are and communicate your location to people without having to open up the full map and look at it.

Any thoughts?
