    Minimap Symbols

    I have been trying to pay more attention to my minimap. Am puzzled by some of what I see.

    Team members blue or green dots superimposed over a larger red dot. Am thinking they are in need of ammo or medic?

    Red iron crosses, sometimes moving?

    Red question marks?

    Thanks

    Red question marks = Possible Enemy

    Red crosses = Sniper

    Hope this helps.

    FYI. If you are a medic and someone is in need of a medic a white circle with a + will show up. If they are critically wounded a blue circle with an x will show up.

    If you are support and someone needs ammo a white circle with three lines will show up. Good luck with all this great info

    Only if they asked for a medic or ammo though...


    Green dots are your squad members and blue ones are teammates. Big blue dots with a number in them are your team's squad leaders.

    If they have the small red area around them, it means that (if you are support) needs ammo or actually has not got his full ammo load anymore and if you are medic, it means that the team/squad mate isn't at full health anymore

    If you see a friendly person on your netbat that has a red larger dot under them it means they are engaged to the enemy and shots (either side) have been fired.
    The soldier formerly known as, Eroak.

    Eroak that must be totally right! I always thought it was what Spartan said (partial depletion of health or ammo). But sometimes, they aren't actually low on health or ammo when I get to them.

    Red circles = engaged makes more sense to me now!
