A Narc Indicator is direly needed for the cockpit HUD. Very inconsistent that you can see NARC on Allies but not on yourself.

Here is my issue. NARC launched. Hits. NARC indicator shows above head of affected mech for....wait for it...

23 OTHERS GUYS AND NOT THE GUY WHO IS AFFECTED!

Here is what needs to happen. Everyone knows. Fine. Everyone but the guy? Come on, really?
My suggestion? Make a tone like in a jet fighter that you are radar homed. DON'T show the narc to people not using NARC enabled missles. SCRAP. Since there is no way of buying special ammo like NARC or TAG enabled missles. Anyone on ENEMY team shows the NARC indicator. No one else. This falls a bit under information warfare as far as I am concerned. A NARC'ed individual should show no indicator then no one on HIS side shows it either. Make him aware something is happening via tone or "Bitchin' Betty".

There is a NARC indicator already built in. It's the "WARNING: INCOMING MISSILE" blaring until you're dead.

On a more serious note, it really would be nice to have some sort of sharp, pulsing tone that is hard to mistake if you get NARC'd. It'd be especially useful for those pesky ECM ravens that sneak up on the back of your team and just NARC for days on more open maps like Alpine.
