Add me to this list... the most unintuitive piece of bull dung I've ever seen... I played 2 maps and 2 maps I couldn't make heads or tails of which way they were coming at me with a glance... who the F&*K asked for this change....

I don't recall anything being wrong with the other one... this one looks like it belongs on an Atari 2600...

Bah... I'll go play something else for a while and check back.... pfft stupidest looking piece of crap map I've ever seen... I half expect the Oregon Trail wagon to go across the screen...

[Miodog]

You can add me, I haven't played since April and came back to check out the resize and I can't navigate around maps I've played for years.

Do you really think that requesting people to get their name in and compiling a public list of people who are quitting is not in any way passive agressive?

What is the purpose of this list? Are you staring an email group? Organizing a weekend barbeque?

Or is it a nothing but a complaint thread?

funny thing is...he berates people for having issues with the minimap and when the servers start going dead he'll be the first person on the forum whining that it takes forever to get a game.

No vitriol please, this is just a simple list of everyone who will not be playing until something is changed with the current state of the minimap. There's a billion topics already of people arguing and detailing why they think this is broken or isn't. This thread however is just to get a count of people who feel this is not just a bad idea, but a gamebreaking change. Let me know if you want your name added.

back in my day gamebreaking meant gamebreaking.

That said it does need zoom settings and orientation added.

Played my first game in over a month. Tried to play with that mini-map, alt+F4'd, waste of time.

I'll probably play again in Winter.

A real warrior can "feel" the battlefield.

Maps and indicators are for *******.

Would that mean I should add your name to the list?

[Johnny Z]

Oh look, 5 players and their alts are not playing until the mini map is updated.

[Remover of Obstacles]

I saw the NGNG preview and I tried anyway. I really tried. Even did a second match and things were better, until my post-it note fell off.

Sorry, it is worse than I feared.

I am out until this is fixed.

Bring back the rotating map with doritos (for every mech, not just mine). Throw in zoom and terrain as a backgroup, that's fine. But fix this now.



Please, for the love of all that is holy, have somebody test patches before they go live.


Waste of customer time and PGI resources.



(If we haven't played our Phoenix Hawks yet, can we get a refund? Or at least extend the event.)

[Anarcho]

me. ill play warthunder or darksouls till it is fixed...

[guy0320]

I'm out. Playing actually gave me a migraine.

[Davegt27]

"Do you guys even look at the mini map?"

That’s what I say and type too often

I say let it alone for a week

Thank you for bumping this thread.

Cheers.

Did they stop teaching people how to read maps in 1st grade or something? Y'all are acting like a bunch of lost LTs on a land-nav course......

[Pariah Devalis]

Situational awareness tanked. And I mean, like a solid lead brick chucked into the ocean. I'm even less aware of where my teammates are relative to me, which is in direct contrast with the intent behind it. It isn't that the game is unplayable, but it is incredibly uncomfortable given how blind you are, now. It's even harder to read a match now than ever. I'm extremely happy the hotfix is coming tomorrow. However, until then?

Pariah Devalis can be added to the list of people who will not be playing until the hotfix. :\


Shame, too. Everything else in the patch is fantastic. The minimap change is just too disruptive, however.

I remember my land nav course as a first grader LT. Good times man, good times.

And no, their map is just garbage. Plain and simple. Call us 1st graders all you want, but there's enough first graders that dislike this to threaten the coup de grace on the dying game you are (and until today, we were) playing.

Anyway people, great news!

This thread put together by Andi is compiling the responses Russ has made on Twitter. Looks like the majority of issues will be addressed. Hopefully this will make this feature usable again.
