Team-mate Radar Dots

They've added the ability to see our team-mates kills in green writing, and we can also see their tags appear in green as well. I think this is rather handy and was wonder why we can't or haven't had the ability to show a green dot for team-mates on the radar.

It'd be a good thing to have in my opinion as we'd be able to see exactly where our team-mates are when communicating. 'I'm on the right side' but tags don't appear above heads unless we are close enough or stare at them and there may be a bunch of other spartan's kicking about. It'd also help players stick together ot see where team members need help. It's a simple thing to add in, some people might not want it but seeing as we can see green names and green tags, we may as well have green radar dots for our friends/fire team members as well.

Anyway, thanks for listening :p

My friends and I talked about this and we all agreed as soon as we saw the green we were asking why aren't the dots green too.

I agree with this

Good idea!

thats the beauty of knowing what the call outs are, if your team mates are saying im over here, or im on the right then thats clearly their fault, but for example on Colosseum if one says "im at red elbow," or im in blue caves"

Callouts are great with the new map designs where they all kinda have premade areas so that you don't have to come up with the callouts, but the only problem is a lot of people play casual.

Good idea! This would make things much better.

I think they added something where if you hold some button on the D-Pad you "ping" your location. I don't know which button and I've never seen it in action.

Never heard of this, if it's true that'd be awesome though!

all the new feature does is make your tag blink for a second or two. which is no different then if you are shooting or being shot at anyways

Not to be picky, but you didn't say anything to listen too, you typed something to read. So, your welcome for reading.

This would be a nightmare for people who are red / green colour blind.

My mate can't tell the two at a glance.

If not green, even if it was customisable by the user it'd be better. That way those that are colour-blind won't be at a disadvantage and would still be able to make use of it
