It would be nice to know who all dropped together, as well as being able to see clan identity while in a match.

I would suggest when you drop as a GROUP, the group leader keys in the name of their group and it is displayed by the player name in-game. Both when you have them targeted, and in the chat, as well as the scoresheet.


thanks

Why?

Merc Unit ID Tags are already on the way, why do you need all of that other stuff?

I think once we get unit tags that will be sufficient.

Ahh, didn't know that they were on their way.

Although I still like the idea of seeing who dropped together, whether they are in a merc unit together or not.

Being able to ID groups might be cool but I can see people disconnecting from matches when faced with a premade.

it is a violation of rules to disconnect a game.
but some times i heard of players that have strange Crash to D bugs when they faced a maybe 8er syncdrop team :P

However - nothing gives me more joy as a sole player to find a premade team and whipe them out...

Why would someone disconnect? Solo players need to support the game and let pre-mades with voice chat roll right over them. Why, making pre-mades have to faces other pre-mades. That's just crazy. Oh but then you'd start seeing pre-mades disconnect since they don't want to have to fight pre-mades. Oh, what to do, what to do. I love watching players who do pre-mades throw temper tantrums about any posts about them having to face other pre-mades instead of solo players. The hypocrisy is laughable.
