@Trokey66 I said mostly, because most of their faces were covered up. Their faces were also so generic, there was no way to tie a character to it.
You already answered your own question. The difference is Falck is a strong written character, with a background and specific voice lines. Hearing and seeing the same thing on both teams is an issue. She's Russian, but works on both teams.
I've gotten slightly better at it, but in my 85 hours, it's happened often, Not so much from a distance, but up close there have been many instances where I was confused if it was an enemy or teammate. Only way to know is by playing laser tag and looking to see what color glow stick they have.
How much better would it be if Sundance was faction specific, so I don't have to look at a damn glowstick. I would see, hear, and acknowledge that Sundance = specific team.

@Albake21z So first, Falck is German, the English and Russian out cries were added after the Beta, because language was one feature to tell friend from foe in other Battlefield games.
Second she is female. I am pretty convinced, that Angel can revive team mates, because in the original concept the only medic was a woman.
And yeah we know the glow sticks are here to "help" with the friendly/unfriendly clone issue. But I am also sure, that no one believes that glowsticks on camouflage battledresses help when hiding in the bushes. More than once I shot bushes, because I glimpsed something red glowing in there. And it also something why I despise T1 skins, because now the friendlies also have the red accents "reserved" for enemies.

- AntEater19974 years agoSeasoned Hotshot@kregora I loved in 3 and 4 when I would be in an objective area and could hear an English/Russian/Chinese voice screaming reloading or grenade when I threw one in the direction they were in. That told me that there is an enemy player over there. The sound design was top notch and those little implementations of real time feedback besides just footsteps made you feel so immersed.
