[Suggestion] Keep squadmate names visible when ADS

Hello Respawn,

An annoying feature the game seems to have is that, when using any type of scope, the floating names above your teammates' heads disappear.

This is incredibly confusing during fights, and many times I've been lobbing longer range shots as a sniper support only to reload and find out that the Bloodhound I'd been shooting for the last 5 seconds was MY Bloodhound, not the enemy one (and here I thought my aim was just * b/c no shots seemed to be landing). The same thing in close quarters when stumbling on a knocked-down/crawling player - it'll take a second and a handful of rounds before I notice it's not doing dmg and that it is in fact my teammate.

I'm not sure if this is an intended feature it make it harder in fights, but since every team could theoretically be made up of the exact same heroes it's mostly just confusing. A change to this would be welcome.

Thanks!

  • I to have noticed the team mate player tags not showing up. Not just while your firing a weapon with a scope on it.   

  • @Celeritar I also have the issue where crouched players look like knocked players when they're next to other knocked players. It be nice if knocked players had a light glow or something when you hover your aim over them, so you can tell that they're down.
  • Yet EA and respawn have no comments or responses to this. Because they are incompetent.
