Display kills (numbers) in conquest mode

[SirScorpion]

This is very nice feature please add it back. its much more than just destruction as well it helps alot in many other ways and since we dont have audio confirmation this works just fine

[monochromatic]

+ sign is not good. What does it stand for? What does it increase? It will make people confused.

I don't mean it has to be exactly a plus sign. Any neutral sign would be better than nothing in my opinion.

[praslovan]

I don't really have that much strong opinion for kill signs any more. But I still think it would make game mode more solid.

No numbers! Its perfectly fine and ambiguous allows suspense.
But its annoying to see a T-80U explode and me going YAYAYAYAYAY I killed it! Then it never sowing up in e debrief...

Ambiguity doesn't add suspense... it adds frustration. The game is played on a macro scale, so visual cues like the "number" system becomes exceedingly important. If we were zoomed in at all times and you could see tanks/infantry go down perhaps this would alleviate the problem, but as it is now, you have no representation of what is occurring on screen.

It is a small change that dramatically changes how the game feels...

I think they should remove the hole "kill number" system....makes it more realistic.

This is really more than anything a matter of individual taste so I'll doubt we find a consensus here. Personally I am emphatically in the "meh...whatever" camp with a slight preference towards numbers off:

Floating numbers popping up over woods one just blindly artilleried on a hunch (or as counter-battery fire) just looks gamey. Even more so if it's a transport and the artillerst at the tube instantly knows "Oh, an APC, and it was loaded. All passengers dead". And that's without evening knowing something was there.

Secondly, I like the ambiguity. I think it's a decent representation of the fog of war and chaos during battle. Two situations:

• A tank battle in open plains: Big explosion, black crater, tank is gone. Very clear feedback, no uncertainty. So there is no need for any pop-up numbers.


• A two-man ATGM team, hidden on the edge of a forest, fires a Milan/Konkurs at a passing tank 2 km away. The targeted tank crew sees the smoke/blast and returns a shot from its main gun. No further missiles are fired...are the two infantrists dead or did they just sleek back into the woods? Unless they fire again...tough to know. In-game and "RL" correspond quite nicely here.

For conquest yes please. For destruction im not so sure.

Listen to this man. He speaks sense.

Now I don't know how do you play. But I use planes quite often. Which means that I am not ploughing fields with my nose most of the time. And since I have a big nose that means I am zoomed out as far as possible.

I like the LOS only idea more and more.

I dislike the kill points popping up. It feels like CoD. I spit on it. Feh! /Shudder
