"Flash..."

If you know anything about World War II, you probably know about the Flash and Thunder ID system they used.

Too bad it doesn't exist in PR.

On Qinling, near the north side of the coal mine, I was a Medic hiding behind a concrete barrier when a man in a uniform started walking down the hill. He spotted me, and we stared at each other for a second. Nervously, I checked the Caps Lock map and noticed that there was no blue or green dot in front of me.

We stared at each other for a second, wondering if there was something wrong with the floating ID on teammates, before I frantically downed him with two shots to the head.

And all the poor guy had to say was "Thunder"...

maybe this should be moved to suggestions :)

It's called challenging I believe, would be really easy to implement like the Go go go! and Fall back! commands

left click to shout enemy spotted! right click to shout Friendly hold your fire!

Would be very useful without the minimap now

Hm, yeah, I kind of hate it when someone shoots me...I look straight at him, don't fire back...and he then plugs me in the head :p

But well, either they learn or their spawn time goes through the roof ;)

Point your gun to the sky and make a no shaking movement from side to side, or shoot in the air so he sees the same tracer colour. Like a warning shot.
