WOW I cant even see the Grids now that PGI tweaked it on any map. Am I missing something or is there a way so I can see the grids and numbers so I can call out grids to goto or know where someone is saying to go?

Some special button to change colors or something as right now I might as well play in third person mode...

..everytime PGI touches the map, they make it worse.

RIP: decent map that was killed off for no god damn reason.

I like the terrain, but I agree the colors of the grid need to stand out more.

It wouldn't be as bad as if they would finally put in a feature that shows the sector you are pointing at right above the range readout in the hud.

Otherwise, its really hard to see positions with the new map.

Grid Colors need to be a hard yellow on top of the terrain, same sort of strength as a dc ally. Same with the section designations. Love the satellite map style look of it though, just, grid lines and section numbers are hard to read.

Why do the coordinate characters in light gray? How about florescent green, or maybe a variable color scheme that would stand out relative to the background. Too hard? Then why was it working before!!? Please, please stop taking away functionality and calling it a feature. It never makes a customer happy.

Sometimes I think their in-house testing process is a lot like Bill O'reilly's writing process..

Good grief, does no one at PGI play their own game? How did this get past testing?

I know, right?

First i thought...INFOTECH!!!!

Then...

PGI is saving resources and fps by getting rid of the minmap that only the comps use.
