a continent-wide command channel for cr5s.*

a 'clear all' button for waypoints

a toggle/cycle waypoints button on toggle menu. toggling them off on the map should hide them in-game.

more precise cartesian grid

unsynchronized (across continents/planets) daylight cycles **

Killspam logging, like chat logs.

better crosshairs

shiny vs cr5 packs

combat engineers should:
  • see friendly ACE on their radar/minimap
  • see enemy mines earlier (render farther out)
  • have a running total of ace types deployed [hayoo's pic]
  • have own CE marked on map in color
*(point cr5 sitreps back to the cr5s, just like a cr4 sitrep - poof, cont command)

** it's annoying and retarded that daylight hours occur simultaneously on all parts of one world, or more recently, on many different planets in many different solar systems.

Like 'em, just makes the game flow better and removes a lot of the hassle.

CR5s should be able to /c to talk to the CR5s on the continent and /g to talk to the CR5s in the world.

All CRs should be able to give /orders to the CR below them (well CR1s cant), or to Platoon or Squad Leaders. This is the reverse of a /sitrep we have currently.

As a TR cloaker, I'd hate for that change to be made, but as an occaisional pilot, yes, I'd love a better hud.

Umm, you do know the the map already has pan and zoom, or did you mean the minimap?

i know the map has pan and zoom, but you have to do it with your mouse, i think - am i wrong?

anyway, the mouse on the map sucks - i dont know what it is about it, it just isn't as responsive as it should be. i really don't like having to mouse up to the command menus through the scroll hotbar.

I don't know about scrolling, but the Z and X keys let you zoom in and out of the map. I've found it is much faster and more useful than the "normal" method.

i use mousewheel to zoom, which is actually really nice... it's just panning that bothers me. maybe binding the numpad to the respective 8 directions and having 5 toggle center-on-player (which would allow a moving-map option; remember the doom map?)

Visors!
I want it to show the edges of the visors when youre in first-person mode. It would make it more realistic, and (since it would be most severe on RExos) give a slight indirect buff to Agiles and cloakers since they would have better awareness.

Nice list, martyr. I want all of those things as well. The synchronous daylight cycles have bugged me a little too. But at least it seems they can change that eventually.

Oh, I do have concept art for one of the other items you mentioned:
