Get rid of the red name!
Seriously why is the red name that pops up when someone crosses your aim even in the game? Why should people be able to kill where they cant see(through smoke) just because a red name pops up when they are locked on to an enemy? Smoke is suppose to obscure the sight so one can use it to there advantage not be caught moving through it by red name and shot at. Kinda beats the point of smoke. Plus people just abuse the red name that pops up by getting kills that they otherwise wouldn't get.

its Fine
I personally think this is fine mainly because lots of snipers use the name to no scope. ( cough not me I can't no scope cough lol) and even if you shoot though smoke the guy will move out of the way not just stand there and look for the person who is shooting. In GM the names only show to BL because if they showed to GR it would be unfair. -
bad idea! fail! dont qq..you may as well say remove kick vote -.-" dumbest suggestions ever LOL! no thanks..more ppl will want to keep it..besides..in real life you die in 2 shots..will you die in 2 shots in this game? no! in real life..visibilty is 100x better...so yea that's why the name is there..

You're 100% right. People that are hiding in good areas and I can't see them, I pan over and see a name pop up and it's like "Oh, someone's back there." and know roughly where they're at. It lets me know where to aim, where to wait and where to rush and prepare to shoot or prefire on them.
I also see people's names in smoke and start shooting into it. Especially since you can't TK, there's no detriment to shooting your own men if they're inside.
I can only assume the same is done to me and it's not right. Obviously the idea is for noobs to have an extra notification. It might as well read "SHOOT THIS GUY" instead of a name. If it's stripped from everyone the game will be more realistic and fair. -

Seriously, what is wrong with you? Did you graduate kindergarten? Do you have friends? Can you function in society? Are you a psychopath?
I kill people with 1 shot in this game all the time. ALL the time. I also kill people with 2 shots in the game ALL the time. I'd say 90% of my kills are from 1 or 2 shots. So YES! In real life many things are different but visibility isn't one of the drastically different things. In fact, the contrast and colors on most of the maps, lack of suitable camo/prone/mobile cover make it much easier to see people in game. Maybe you play with a curtain over your monitor or something? But the rest of us don't.
Like I said, OBVIOUSLY the name is there as a benefit to noobs such as yourself that need the extra queue to fire. Apparently seeing your enemy isn't enough. -_-; At the very least it shouldn't be on delta. Keep it on the nub servers if you have to. Since apparently you need it, hopefully it will also keep the nubs on the nub servers. -

100% correct. -
You contradict yourself. "I kill them with one shot ALL the time" and "I kill them with two shots ALL the time". I sense hypocrisy here.PurityNDeath wrote: »Seriously, what is wrong with you? Did you graduate kindergarten? Do you have friends? Can you function in society? Are you a psychopath?

Agreed. It gets annoying that I throw smoke and BANG! I am dead from an AWM straight through the smoke at me.
And why should ghosts get this? They already mostly fixed it so you can't see ghosts in smoke anymore (despite it making sense since no smoke would gather there and reflect off their invisibility generator) And now when we throw smoke at the bomb to make it harder for them to knife the defuser they just run right through at us because apparently they have magic name reading devices JUST LIKE RL!
I mean so many times in WW2 when smoke grenades were thrown the Nazi's would just aim at the names that popped up in the smoke! -

yeah but captain obvious failed to point out that moving out of the way isn't an option when an enemy:
Headshots you
Quick Burstfires at you
Hits you with an AWM
You are defusing an every body in SnD/GM know where you are despite the smoke
I mean seriously, they mostly patched out the ability to see ghosts in smoke... So what is the point of smoke if we can still see names? To slightly lag some of the slower PCs? XD -
Red names has been a part of fps game since the oldies. Why ruin a traditional of fps gaming. All cod series have it, all f2p FPS has it, Counterstrike has it!
Doom didn't have the ability to strafe AND turn, why ruin what worked? LETS REMOVE STRAFE
