Separate monitor for map

    it was handy for clearing your game window up. Altho a bit late in production It would be nice to see this as an option

    maybe later in portal or something 🙂

    In my opinion this is just in-game cheating. God some of the people that whined and whinged about about being 3D spotting or on a min-map. Yet used a 2nd screen with a full map with every vehicle and infantry current location without spotting thinking that it is ok. What a bad joke! 

    Sure any one could use on a single screen but you needed to switch between the two. It should never have existed

    No, this is not a commander mode feature, even as a commander you still had less visibility of enemy then this map feature.

    I hope this feature never see the light of day again.

@CyberDymeThe negative comments cannot be valid when not based on the facts and I called them out. So sorry for that.

No your not. By the way when are you going to present facts? All you have done is claim I am wrong while stating your opinion.   All to justify that an exploit was not always used as an exploit. 

This Battlescreen, it is not a web or mobile app.

Trying to divert the answer Battlescreen still worked when the hud was disabled for hardcore. Sure stop 2d or 3d spotting was disabled that still leaves gadgets, passive and audio.  Which is one reason the hud was disabled to stop seeing any spots.  If battlescreen was not disabled in that mode it is a exploit.  

Cheating is cheating.  Calling it collaborating does not stop it being an exploit.    

I am definitely not trying to divert anything here!   I am simply just stating the facts about how the Batlescreen worked or not.  If you cant handle the facts, too bad, but it is not my fault.  And yes, its a bit hard to prove something that was available 3-8 years ago and little formal documentation still around on these days.  But expect many more Battlescreen users online here who could chip in, if they dare...  :o)

Here is a response to other players years back from @ragnarok013 who confirmed the fact.  

And yes, Ragnarok is asking about the user's web browser, because the Battlescreen was a web based application.

I found the Battle screen looked good on this little eight inch monitor under my main monitor. The whole set up was clean and cool looking.

Kept the screen a little bigger then normal size. It didn.t show  more but was just bigger same area used, just larger, for these old eyes. Here a battle a screen to yaz.

Was fun Just another tweek I miss from BF4
