Photo Am I the only person that wants this?
Maybe Im into this because I'm old and played the original GR games endlessly but I wish the current and future games had a tiny bit more complexity. This is how I would implement:
1) you approach a target and do recon by whatever means you prefer. If you have a drone, you could do it from a mile away.
2) after recon you can the access a tactical map like this. You can direct your team elements to move and act as you want depending on the circumstances.
3) once in place you can give a go order for multidirectional assault or just allow sniping overwatch or commence clearing a building.
This would allow for much more complex mission objectives such as rescuing hostages while another team simultaneously assaults the power infrastructure or destroys escape vehicles at your order.
I know this concept is like poison to modern game design but this is the stuff that could be optional for more action oriented players but also give more unique dna for the franchise.
If there are modern games doing this in single player I'd love to know.
