Did PGI secretly implement this already?

If so, how do I do it?

Edit: This is not even the first time I saw this. (2nd time) Now, I am not debating whether this will help or not. Just want to know if it's implemented sometime without us knowing.

You might have posted after I did my edit. Like I don't want to get into the whole argument of whether this will help or not. I just want to know if this is doable, and how to do it.

it would be nice, but it's not in-game yet. Maybe that is from the test server? I dunno.

It was hugely useful in MW:LL. When you're in a close brawl, you get much better situational awareness zoomed in.

Otherwise, zoomed out gives you better positioning awareness.

I think you guys are mistaken. This screenshot is taken in live quick play game when I spectators someone. This is not proposed Photoshop, and this is certainly not test server.

How is this possible?

In all likelyhood, it's just yet another spectator glitch.

I would LOVE a zoomable minimal, definitely would help with positioning and terrain nav. Perhaps there are some who don't see it as being useful but I certainly would!
