This feedback mainly comes up in BTB games, but it can largely be applied to the game as a whole.
What I am referring to is giving information to the players when it comes to weapon, equipment, and vehicle spawns.
For example, the weapon lockers on the wall with the blue bar above indicating how long it is until it respawns is a FANTASTIC design choice, and it needs to be spread to other parts of the game.
Vehicles
In BTB there is so much guess work on when a vehicle is going to spawn, this needs to change, I’m willing to wait a little bit for the Wasp to spawn if it stops the enemy team from constantly stealing it from us, but I wanna know how close it is to spawning.
With the weekly challenges, the stars have to align for some of them, not only do we need the RNG for the right vehicle to spawn, we also have to be lucky enough to get the vehicle for ourselves, AND manage to get kills with it. (30 kills with a rocket hog? yikes)
Equipment
There a Wasp spawn killing you at base? Gee I wish I knew where the hell the grappling hook spawned. The equipment pads needs to have a hologram of what equipment spawns on it and how long until it spawns, the information isn’t clear enough for players to have a good time without having to spends multiple matches hunting and studying the map, all while abandoning their team.
I’ve been told to go into a custom game and explore the maps, which I’ve done, but I’ve noticed the spawn locations of stuff is completely different than a live match even though I selected the same game mode, so that’s a no-go.
Weapons
They are generally in a good spawn, I like how in Arena matches they have countdown and such (both power weapons and equipment) and I would just like for that to carry over to BTB, with all the chaos going on, knowing when something is going to happen would be nice.
AI Callouts
The AI calls out when there is an ordinance drop and a vehicle drop, it would be nice if there were UI markers to help us find where the heck these things are sometimes, I’m starting to get used to the vehicle spawns, and sometimes I get lucky and happen upon a ordinance drop, but more info would be nice.
TL:DR
I would like more info on the respawn timing and identity of items to help me understand my options in a BTB match.
I feel ultimately lost on where anything is when I play BTB, and I’m sure a lot of other players do too.
