Dear Devs,

do you have test players?

Really no one noted that now it's impossible to understand the enemy's position, specially when they are really close to the player?

Solutions:
- get back to old one;
- get Zoom!

Thks

I agree, Anavel, and I noticed everybody today being unhappy and confused with the new mini map.
To see where your team and the enemies are moving you have to use the big map, which makes no sense while being in combat. Especially for Commanders and Scouts it is really annoying.
A zoom would help, but I'd prefer to have the old one back.

Please don't do this to us during the championship.

As I mostly play the lights, I have great difficulty to see direction of movement of my team, location of the enemy, especialy if they are closer then 500m. There is no point in minimap, which I always assumed, for some reason, to actualy represent the radar screen rader then paper map - and that, sadly, looks like what the developers had in mind. I never had much need to know the weight clas of the enemy. I could discern that mostly by lokking at the speed they move.


I understand the folks here wanted to make it look more like WoT? Well, there are few reason I chose to play MoW instead of that game... Positive side is that I think I can now stop playing and get more free time, sicne the game has been rather addictive.

Please return us to the old HUD including mini map. Now I like the idea of having a command wheel, however the adjustment to the minimap which allows us to navigate and keep our Mechs going where we want them to is gone. I also cannot tell another player that they have an opponent to the east because the compass directions are gone. The new setting is a hindrance, not a help.
