Solution for 'no names over teammates head' problem?

[ASF Swifty]

Some people are quick on the trigger. When your snippin you should not use the "your name didnt come up excuse" you can clearly designate a seal from terrorist in scope. I never fire unless i got a clean shot so that usually gives me enough time to tell.

Yeah, and when you are out in the wide open areas of crucible and harvester or DRoad it is not that hard to tell each other apart, even if nobody's name popped up!

Im sniping like 100% of the time, sometimes all you see is a silouette, not on the radar and if they have on a gillie suit, its definately shoot first ask questions last.

Most of the times Im right about it not being a teammate but every now and then I mess up, not as much as when the game first came out though.

I personally like that fact that you cant see the names unless you lock on because i ahted in socom 2 that when u killed and someone was looking in that direction of where he died, he basically knows where ur at and this sucks when your outnumbered in the final minutes. now there is no way they wont know where im at when i do get the kill:)

Thats fine if you hit the other team. But I dont like when I get team killed because people have to shoot first. Its annoying. As far as the ghillie suits they can people told apat its not that hard and there very different from each other.

Yeah I agree with what you guys are saying. I think I only have 2 or so team kills in the 50 games I've played, I find using the compass fine and easy, or just look at the person you're about to shoot at. But then you have alot of people who are on your team who just sit there and shoot at you and kill you. And alot of people are complaining about it, so i threw this out as an idea/suggestion, up for some discussion.

For the most part, if I cant tell who is who while sniping I will ask over the mic "Who is crouching at the base of the bridge?" or somthing to that nature. Most of the time I get an answer but if not......your ant food. Communicate, communicate and communicate some more!! It works.

Yeah I like when people do that, and I do it also.

Only problem is n00bish little kids who hold the mic and talk about nothing for no reason

I think IO have a total of like 8 teamkills, with more than 50 games. That's about the same as someone would have in Socom 2. It isn't hard to learn the little differences.

I know man. Its not hard at all. There are differences in the character models between the teams, there not all the same. The only time I TK'd people on my team was the first game I played which was a respawn.
