This should seem pretty evident given the scale and scope of flashpoint maps. They’re huge and half the time I dont know where the point is. I’m just following my team. If they dont know, then I dont know. Then we’re all screwed.
Honestly, just give a large beacon or some small minimap so I stop getting lost in New Junk City
half the time people get seperated pretty easy , need. a way to round up everyone
There’s an icon you can see from anywhere on the map that tells you the location of the point.
I dont think ive ever seen it
It’s just like the point marker on KotH maps. Diamond marker.
The marker gets blended with the map easily compared to other maps/modes, I keep going nowhere despite having the market full opacity.
They gotta make it more clear with visuals somehow imo
I’ve not had too much trouble personally, but they could definitely make it more visible.
I agree I also made a post saying there needs to be a mini map cuz it’s too big. You also need to be able to see which points have been taken by who So if you are on the losing side you can prepare to go to the next objective
I’m just speaking for myself, but the icon/waypoint that appears each time a new point is activated is very prominent and hard to miss, at least, it’s hard to miss when you’re not in the middle of a big team fight.
Just give a few more matches and I’m sure you’ll get used to it.
Is this a template for the My Team vs Their Team meme?
When point changes, just do a quick 360 (if it’s safe)
You can’t miss it, I don’t see how you have for so long lol
They could easily put the escort floor lines that have a directional light flow to help this. Also I think they gotta change how it’s played, it’s way too big for only 5v5 with singular points active. If the devs can somehow increase player count, a 5v5v5 or 5v5v5v5 would be substantially better with more points active at once. Granted this would be hilariously bad as a competitive mode, it would really make up a great mode.
Rn it’s just lame unless you main hypermobility heroes, deathmatch or play hardpoint in COD and love it. It’s the least Overwatch-y mode frankly.
Im replying after just finishing another game of flashpoint. Whatever diamond marker im hearing of, im not seeing it. Even when the point has spawned. it’s just… not there.
Idk if this is a settings thing but i dont see jack squat on my screen for an indicator.
usually i know im close if I see Illari pylon somewhere on the screen lol
The opacity of the diamond marker is set to 0 in your settings, rise it to at least 10% and you are good to go. (I think it’s on the Gameplay tab then HUD then at the bottom somewhere)
Have you messed with you UI settings?
I feel like the only problem with the FP indicator is that it’s not color customizable like friendly/enemy team colors (until after it’s captured. I think. Haven’t been on today)
this was in fact the issue.
problem is, i never changed my UI to 0 lol
i just had the problem of being unable to see it, so for me to change it to 0 at any point wouldn’t make any sense. But whatever, problem solved
I thought you could costumize your HUD. I know there is an option somewhere to make objectives stand out or make them more transparent. I could be wrong though.
Eh, i dont think it’s necessary, yeah i got lost the first time on each map, but its not THAT complicated.
I know the India map pretty well already, ive only played junker town? junker something, once so i dont know it well yet.
But this ia problem that will take care of itself, people will just learn the map after a bit. A clunky minimap would cause more problems than it’d solve.
It’s white, says “point” on it.
It doesn’t show in replays or I’d screenshot it. T^T
You have a massive beacon… It’s a huge diamond shaped object on your screen that says objective… You even have one that says enemy spawn.
If you’re unable to navigate that, I’d hate to see you on a payload or push map… Is that why people just jump off the map constantly? You guys get lost that easily?..
Well if you had read the thread at all before posting so condescendingly, you’d know that OP’s settings were apparently unintentionally set to 0% opacity for that waypoint.
