Personally, if I see someone and I'm not sure if they're friend or foe, I shoot them. That tends to separate them pretty quickly. I'd also look at the colourblind options for the game - the tritanopia setting makes it much easier for me to identify friend/foe quickly, and I'm not even colourblind. Universal design is good design.
@ragnarok013 - With regard to nightclub grandad on the roof, that's much more likely a failure of the players to look at the minimap - they would be appearing as red on the map as long as they didn't have the chunky suppressors attached.
If you think the prox sensor is bad, you should try equpping the SOFLAM - it 3D spots everything, and by that, I mean everything - all armour, air assets, materiel and infantry. It's ace. Blowing up and scaring off choppers and armour with even just one squadmate with the recoilless M5 makes me tingle down there.

@filthy_vegans to be honest I'm very pro prox sensor as I'm a big fan of the 3D spotting that we had from BF2142-BF1 since it made gameplay much better IMO. I haven't unlocked the SOFLAM yet but I am eager to do so since I rarely see anyone designating targets.
