Description

In multi-squad engagements, players from different squads often intermingle, making it difficult to quickly identify which squad a nearby friendly belongs to without opening the map.

I suggest adding a very compact squad designation tag to the 3D world player nameplates (e.g., abbreviating "Bravo 1" to B-1, "Atlas 2" to A-2, "Fixer 1" to F-1).

Rationale / Why it's needed:

  • Faster Communication: Allows players using local voice comms to instantly address nearby allies by their squad designation (e.g., "B-1, cover the left flank!").

  • Minimal HUD Clutter: By using short 3-character codes (e.g., A-1), the UI stays clean, immersive, and lightweight while providing essential tactical context.

Suggested Implementation:

  • Display the abbreviated squad code next to the player's nameplate symbol (e.g., [B-1] PlayerName ◆).

  • Limit this detailed view to close proximity (e.g., within 15–20 meters) or when directly aiming at the friendly player.

  • Provide a toggle setting in the UI menu (e.g., Show Squad Abbreviation on Nameplates: On / Off / Direct Aim Only).
