Do you pay much attention to tactical markers during a team match?

It is much to my chagrin that nobody pays attention to "Help Requested".  That explains why so many people use "Enemy Sighted" when they didn't actually spot an enemy - as it's the only way to actually call for help when you know you're either about to need to go into an enemy held objective or on the run from enemies and need backup.

 

 

It's generally advisable to treat them the same anyway. As often as not, people will use help the requested ping in the midst of being pummeled by multiple enemies, and will be dead long before their team can get there.

 

Perhaps... but it still alerts the team to the location and, when you die after calling for help, it's a pretty good indication that the baddies can be found in the vicinity.  And, since they did not specifically tag an enemy, people don't go to that exact spot expecting to find an opponent and then get ambushed from a different spot.


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

in case the guy who requested help survives the situation you always may go there and see and/or to provide him/her some cover while repairs

When I hear it every 5 seconds It becomes like crying wolf after a while...and I become desensitized to it. It loses it's useful intent and becomes like that car alarm that keeps going off and no one is paying attention to it or when the lawn people are outside your window on a Saturday morning, can you say annoying ? I think players need to know when and when not to use it.

The guy that has his finger glued to the Z and Q keys, I'd like to break it off. :mad:

I currently use the best alternative for tactical comms available to hawken, right along side the q key:

I like going against the best of any game I play. Helps you in the long run n motivates u to do more. Always room for improvement not failure

Athough voice chat is undubtfully the ideal way to coordinate with and in between team mates, tactical markers are still useful on the field. Even when using Vo/IP during a match (in-game -hopefully looking forward to have it working well again and soon- or third party "solutions" as Team Speaker or RaidCall, Etc...

 

Bt the way, muting a player might include his/her tactical markers -and text chat..- as well. This way, we might have a chance to avoid guys spamming markers too much; that within a coherent context and beneath positive fair play..
