Topic: Some suggestions
Hello, recently downloaded the mod and I must say I'm very impressed.
I have some small suggestions, they're in the Total Battlefield 2142 thread for the FS release, but I thoght I'd post them here as well.
1. Please put class icons next to my team's names on the scoreboard, I find this helps with having a balanced squad, instead of having, say, all medics. (I admit I have no idea what the icons would look like)
2. In the customize screen, you might want to put the item icons (even though you don't have to choose), just for the fact that you could put short explanations of them for the uninformed.
3. Not sure if it's just me, but the taunts seem really soft in volume.
4. Finally, smoke grenades seem to not work in mos espa........also more smoke might be nice, though performance might suffer.
5. When you yell for medic or ammo, there's no indicator for where the nearest medic/support is, not sure how it got taken out, or if you can put it back in.
6. When you are a medic, you can't see how much the other guy is healed, at least there's no big indicator. Now, I know a smart person would just look at the blue health bar over the name, but after playing for an hour or so, there's been multiple times when someone will just heal me half way and run off.
7. Space maps- A lot of people don't know "How to get ammoz". Also, the repair rate is so slow as to be almost worthless. Isn't R2 in the back suppose to be repairing something?
8. Spotting seems to be a little finicky. Especially in space.
9. Team balancing is not working it looks like
As you can see, these are all minor things, seeing as I couldn't find anything majorly wrong with FS!
They are mainly just things that will cause a little confusion or headache once in a while.
Thank you for a job well done.
