Re: Soldier icon opacity issue

I believe this was a deliberate change by Dice. Here's how they describe it in the patch notes: "Fixed the issue where the gameplay options for controlling the visibility of the worldicons for enemy and friendly soldiers were not working properly." They did a similar nerf to icons last month, and got away with it.

Thousands of players are affected by this, and a lot of people have already uninstalled the game in disappointment, or said they will quit playing until icon color is fixed. There have been many negative comments about the nerf on the forums and YouTube.

After ignoring the outrage for 24 hours, Dice caved. They now claim it is a bug, and say they will fix it soon.

That's all I know. You can find a lot of comments about it on Reddit's Battlefield_One community.

    An update had to be installed Yesterday, but no fix for this issue in it ☹️ It's really annoying, the number of times I've been shooting at friendly soldiers/planes is countless

    I'm increasingly annoyed at this issue too, it's a huge problem when flying and trying to determine friend from foe... pretty much impossible until you can see no hit markets
