Re: Red/Blue Distance meter underneath the map

I think, but not sure, it is the distance to the enemy's UAV.

It can't be for the enemy UAV it's underground. I've stood right on top of the marker. The closest I could get was like 2m.

Like I said eariler for one team it's red and another blue. So it's something else.

Because of this, I'm not playing BF2 anymore. Instead, I'm going to listen to emo music and slit my wrists.

lmfao.

The 3D map is horrible anyways. Clutters up the screen too much.

The reason it's purple is because it's quite a distance away. If you kept going towards it it would start changing colors to either blue or red.

Maybe the old Vietnam style tunnels are making an appearance in BF2?!

I noticed this on Mashtuur as well.

I was unable to take a screenshot because my printscrn key no longer seems to work

It's the distance to the UAV, get as close as you can and look up.

Why is it showing numbers down there? Well it obviously got your attention faster than the UAV itself.:laugh:

Re: Red/Blue Distance meter underneath the map

Since the vehicle spawns are all linked to flags it would seem that the uav needs a flag for it to spawn at and that the flag would have to be uncappable which not all maps have. Since it would be silly to add an uncap flag to maps for the sake of the uav i think they put one under the map so its out of the way. Also no vehicles disappear when not in use beyond there spawn timer (which cant be longer than the uav recharge time) so the model must be spawned and stored on/in the map when not in use? Or the unseen flag is created when com clicks uav on map and the model instantly spawns at the flags creation?

Ye they seriously limited bunny hopping and dolphin diving then TOTALLY RUINED THE GAME by adding these little numbers...


...damn them all to hades!!!

Maybe it spawns...then takes off and becomes visible ...its not really a major problem.
