Dont we blink?

Back in 42, and I believe when V first came out, when someone called for help, artillery, backup, tank support, chopper support, etc...they would BLINK on the minimap so we could find them.

WHy does this not happen anymore?

This means NONE of those 'requesting...' radio calls are usefull anymore unless you just happen to know where the requester is located.

Still works fine for me... :/

It doesn't work for me on the WWII mod. I haven't checked the others though.

He is right and I always wondered why no one blinks when requesting or using any F key. Only in bfv and ww2 mod. I thought it was just my end or something. Its a bug then. They should fix it....wait.....ahahalol.

BFV wont install passed cd2, so all I get is blinking error messages. Requesting an air strike!

Yeah, I remember that too. I cannot see the blinking of player icons on the minimap either. Maybe theres an option somewhere, or even in a confile. I'll look into it...
