Re: Auto spotting is a feature or am imagining things?

@Psychopski It's called passive spotting / target acquisition and some variant of it has been in pretty much every Battlefield game (even BFV after 5.1 update)
It doesn't actually spot the player for your team but rather just yourself and I believe it only works when the enemy is within a 25m radius.

Personally I'm not a fan of this mechanic because it always causes issues like players getting unintentionally spotted through cover, smoke, etc.
