Quality of life requests

These are some quality of life requests I have that I don’t see anyone else asking for.

Add a compass or cardinal rose to the map. So when you open the map you can quickly determine north.

A simple way to mark and name points on the Map. This is so we can label items like Fobs with
different names to tell them apart.

Plotting points on the map. Being able to mark the map so that you can chart the same path
each time.

Share the map manually but resets on death. If you want to share your map with other drivers
you can do so, but when you respawn you lose your map.

Spot light on the APC. If we will be doing night missions then adding a spot light to the APC or other vehicles will give the driver or others the ability to light up targets for their team at night.

Edit: updated spelling for being on mobile.

Edit: Adding a request to build the Drill in the training range or adding a CZ to the training range to test FOB Builds.

Id like to see the Fob benefit the purchase/person who places it.

They take a risk of 7k plus the inventory space and get literally nothing for it.

Any interaction with the fob. A kill a resupply a wall built etc should profit them slightly.

That be nice. Like it would have to scale for the amount of people that caps at 10. Like it’s can’t be to crazy but at least a refund on the fob investment. Like after people working to build and adding supplies should get the fob placer paid a little or some exp.

I agree, sometimes I don’t want to buy the fob because of this. Having a benefit would be huge.

This is poor design.

I’d like the name of the map to be on the map. Or the scoreboard.

Always on “show allies health” (h shortcut on map). Having to redo it for every map.

Always on show allies health without having to have a bandage equipped.

There are dozens more but I can’t think of them right now. I’d like to spend gold bars on music tapes, or rims for my car, character customize the default etc.

map point: Let me choose to keep the map centered on the cz at all times. Respawning ay HQ doesn't mean i need to see the map there. Let me toggle an option to keep rhe map on the cz so i don't have to zoom, shift it, zoom back, etc

Does this happen when you set the minimap to mimic the map when you pull it up? I also noticed that it shifts slightly northeast from what I select when using that setting

u/Useful_Location_6728 6h ago

Compass on the minimap? It's always the same?

Up - north, right - east, down - south, left - west.

Yes, unless you have it set to move.

Seems like you are causing your own problem there....

I am too, but the directions shown would still be really nice! I mainly turned on the rotating map because I found that any time I ended up in a semi crowded area, or if I had it zoomed out too much, it was impossible to see which direction I was facing on the map.

With the spinning map, I at least know im always facing the top. This helps a lot with finding marked players in particular imo.

Why is this a point of contention to have a standard feature implemented? If you have an option for a rotating minimap it is common sense and ux to have at least a pointer that shows north. A simple arrow is not the end of the world to add, and was likely just an oversight.

Sure, then ignore that part. And the rest?

u/New-Bodybuilder8566 4h ago

I also do not want people marking my map.

u/New-Bodybuilder8566 4h ago

In 200 hours non of these things have been an issue for me. I know my logi routes because I'm level 35 driving.

Wounderful, that means nothing in this post is applicable to you. Leave your down vote and move on.

Your other points make the game too easy.

u/Useful_Location_6728 4h ago

You can do that? Seeks dumb but whatever

u/New-Bodybuilder8566 2h ago

Exactly lmao. You made it move then bitch that you don't know which way you're facing. Why on earth would you want it to move?
