I would be fine with removing spotting altogether if they could perfect the sound in the game.
I welcome the return of a more traditional 3D spot (BF1 had it pretty spot on in my view (excuse the pun!)) although I do accept the is far to much passive 'gadget spotting' in BF2042.

When playing with friends and Discord you don't need it.
But when playing "alone" with random players in your squad, 3D spotting is usefull for a basic teamplay.
There is soo many ways to be spotted already in the game, it won't change much while allowing more teamplay.
On the paper i like it even if i remember the problems in older BFs. We have to see if it a good tool like we hope, or a personal scanner for sniper camper has it has been abused in older BFs...
Happy to see it back, but crossing my fingers to have it less powerfull than it has been.

In the end we won't really know for sure until we get it if it will be good or not.

In its current state no one is pinging enemies, out of the 64 people in a team most of the time I see 3 people pinging an enemy. That just show how bad the current ping system is, so a change is needed (and perhaps 3D spotting will make people ping more).
Just play a custom game with AI bots and notice the difference in pinging. Its like day and night. AI bots ping everytime!
