Raker57 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I've been thinking lately that it'd be pretty cool to be able to pull up a real time map with the "M" key. - Map would view the battlefield in real time from high above (It would look like a traditional RTS) - Map would be shrouded in fog of war. Each soldier, vehicle and building would have a "sight range" around them on the map, clearing away the fog of war. Vehicles would have a further sight range than infantry. - All units and building would show up with a green or red box around them along with a unit type and health bar at the top. - Commands could not be issued, nor could enemies be tagged from this screen, as this could potentially alter the Renegade gameplay. It would simply function as a map. - There could be a crate that could reveal the enemy base for a period of time. Other options: - The map could be a function of the Communications Center tech building. Capturing the building gives the team access to the map. OR - Both teams could have a destructable Communications Center building as part of their base. The Communications Center would allow access to the Real Time Map. The building could also offer a new spy satellite technology (Or whatever the tech was in TibDawn. I can't remember.) that you could purchase, maybe in the same menu as Airstrike and Beacons, that would allow you to choose a location on the map to be revealed for your team.

super_gsx Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 How about putting the map into the ESC menu, and allowing cursor control? Then you can highlight figures on the map and see WHO it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
