As a Messer, I love that my clones are cluttering up your UI and annoying you.

Dear Justin,

Please take some of the suggestions in this thread more serious. I understand this isn’t a matter of life and death but some people(including myself) suggested some nice improvements that could probably be easily implemented.

Cheers

I do take them serious, but this one isn’t a server programming issue. So don’t take my attempt at humor as a serious reason why we wouldn’t change this.

The icons are a bit too big for my taste (I’d love to have a little gear icon in the minimap where I can set which icons I want to see and the sizes of icons and texts) and phantasms should not appear, only clones should, and only for players that have the clone on camera, but the feature should NOT be removed.

Not everyone uses voice chat, and in random teaming you can’t expect everyone to quickly get into the same chat, or even speak the same language. And without that, those with voice chat get a massive advantage as they can quickly tell each other about other enemies around.

I kept wishing for shared “I’m seeing this guy” icons ever since before release, and it’s actually one of the greatest additions for PvP. Removing it would be a travesty. An aberration.

It must stay, but it still needs some tweaking. Some options for those who do not want it, and for those who find the icons too big.
