A quick question

I watched so many in-play video. Something bothers me -- in some of the video, I saw tags of opponents, even though they might be in another block. To my experience, I can't see it in TDM, SND, and MM on my screen. I am wondering if there is some button to activate it or it is a server side setting, or the video maker should turn off some of their code before they make videos.

Anyway, I don't like this idea, and server should not turn on this option. It destroys the pleasure of camping.

    You were probably watching a video made from a replay, and the replay system shows players tags from both sides..

    Now i'm gonna go and shoot a dog.

    What the above poster said is true. You can turn on nametags ingame, but it only shows your teamates. any video you see showing both is a replay

    some examples can be viewed on my un-updated youtube page youtube.com/cfpugrage.

    Any video with nametags will have the replay controls at the bottom. Any video without the tags/controls is a video i captured as i was playing using fraps
  • I think you are watching replay files, which can only be saved AFTER the game. In game there is no legal way to see the enemies' tag.

    However, if your crosshair comes across the enemy, there will be a red name pops up, extremlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy useful in smoke and long distance, that WHENEVER RED NAMES POPS UP, you click, it is a hit!

  • You can save them without ending the game, Blindrob made a post about it I believe.

  • "A quick question"
    An apology for lying would be nice
  • The names also show up from both sides on spectator mode.
