Supreme Commander had a cool optional feature where you could use your second monitor to display a map of the battlefield.  I found this really cool and really useful.

Here is a example of how it looked playing the game.



I think Hawken should support something similar.  Honestly, i don't think it would be much extra programming.  You would take the existing data and re-display it on the second monitor (just with more detail).

I think that if it did have dual-monitor support, that it wouldn't be the same, or to be more specific, would have to show more than a minimap, since the actual minimap is not very detailed.

The status of your team mates would work.

As you already do know, we do use the second monitor as a big minimap in Supreme Commander 1 and 2. I could live without it here though.

Good idea... not sure how feesible this is in UDK though. I don't think they have much control over the rendering or windows.
