Mini Map

[sharp socket]

PLEASE ADD A MINI MAP as I can not keep half the screen on just the map, sooo annoying.

[last quail]

sorry to tell ya but Squad is not that game...

[ruby wigeon]

Just spend your entire game pressing M like the rest of us

[rich kestrel]

this is Squad

so uh

[wheat prawn]

Umm, Sweaty... minimaps are a cod thing, go play cod kiddo. I'm also downranking your post.

[rich kestrel]

why?

[wheat prawn]

im evil, and insane

[rich kestrel]

no not to that

we all are

i meant to wanting to add a minimap

like can you not just check the map and walk a few 200 meters and then check it again?

who needs a constant map?

fuckin' hand holding shit

[wheat prawn]

it would reduce TKs

raise situational awareness

it'd be more QOL than handholding, wouldn't have to spam M constnatly

[rich kestrel]

man fuck that I'd rather my entire screen be taken up by the map so I can simulate checking that shit every nine minutes

[sharp socket]

how about this, make it a feature you can turn on and off 💀

[vague mica]

No

“Hey can we add hitmarkers and damage numbers?”

[wheat prawn]

shit equivalence

we already have a map that shows you exactly where all your teammates are

[vague mica]

Ahahaha

[wheat prawn]

all this would do would move it to the corner of your screen

[vague mica]

“Ummmm actually that’s a bad equivalence” shut up nerd no one wants that shit

[wheat prawn]

"You should have to spam the M key to avoid constant TK'S because... Because you just should, okay?!?!"

do you enjoy getting assfucked by dumbass blueberries who cant tell the insurgents apart from the us army?

[vague mica]

Yeah, you should. Squad doesn’t need your shitty suggestions to casualize the game. This is legit a moment where saying “go play cod” is a good response. We want minimal information on screen because that’s core to squads identity. I’d rather take TKs than see the game slowly slide into “arcade mechanics” for people too lazy to press a button for their map.

[wheat prawn]

It's not casualizing the game, it's literally QOL. Functionally you get the same thing by spamming the M key, except thats just more annoying and nobody wants to do that shit all game.

Want minimal information = turn it off

[vague mica]

And what’s more, I don’t even need to argue with you about the merits, most players wouldn’t want it!

[wheat prawn]

i'd get your point if we were navigating by maps and compasses but we aren't, every soldier has full real time infomration of roughly where the enemy is and exactly where friendly armour and infantry are

yeah okay buster

[ashen geyser]

Nah there's a fine line between QoL and silly. This is silly.

Health bars when

Hitmakers when

They should add a PiP of subway surfers too

Just clutter the ui

[torpid walrus]

Be nice if we could put the map on a second monitor. It is pretty huge when trying to drive with it covering half the screen. I'm used to it but it would be nice to be able to make it smaller like 30 percent of screen.

[hazy pawn]

I like how everyone is like "squad is not that game" despite literally being that game

If you know what you're doing even a little bit youre spamming that M key constantly.
With how it's currently used it's just bad QOL to not be a minimap

[olive field]

@sharp socket bind map to mouse thumb button

[manic wadi]

My man

[wise ether]

The best squad players actually don’t check their maps all that often, but to get to that point everybody’s gotta go through the map spam phase where you spend more time looking at the map than you do the area in front of you as if the map will tell you where the enemies are.

[olive field]

i never left that phase

[spice girder]

I...no...

[ashen geyser]

You do reach a state of being where you do remember the position and movements of friendlies where you don't have to check if they are friend or not, you just know that nothing exists in an area that love you

[shut moat]

Good players dont check the map all the time to avoid teamkills, they do that for tactical situational awareness.

[ashen geyser]

Same same

[valid sage]

I thought you wanted mini maps for fast infantry combat, like Seed.
But the very existence of such a map is unrealistic, and you want a minimap like World of Tanks...

[trim nymph]

But I love getting TK'd every 5 minutes by newbies who didn't do the tutorial! Why would I want a minimap that would take that away!

[shut moat]

You would still get TKt btw

[ember reef]

Its all bout dat Capslock bro

[trim nymph]

Yeah true
