Would be nice if it was an option. I would not use it, but I know some people (like the OP) would, no reason not to have it available since it is obviously already working.

It was a mechanic that discouraged people from targeting I think. Plus it went off every 2 seconds and was really annoying. Lastly, it would go off when there was no way I was being targeted, so it just made me paranoid.

They probably removed it because it was borked. There were many, many times I was getting messages about being targeted, when there was a mountain between myself and the only enemies left.

If I were to venture a guess, they will probably put it back in once it is fixed.

Plus it was stupid... You have warnings for getting targetted, warnings for missiles, whats next? warning mech detected!? Or "Warning inbound ballistics" Or Warning lasers firing at you" or more helpful, "warning incoming missiles, get cover or you will die. Dont stand out in the open dumbass."

Yes they got rid of it, and you are one of the few people who liked it. It discouraged scouting, targeting, being sneaky in any way, basically everything that makes for good tactics and teamwork. Additionally, it was really annoying.

More than once during a heated match I would find my self yelling, "So help me god Betty, if you don't shut the **** up, I will turn this mech RIGHT AROUND."

I certainly don't miss it. I <3 BB's voice forever but this particular message was far too much hand-holding.
