cause I don't remember it being on every server....
I don't know it's been a long time since I saw that thing,
but I think bringing it back for let's say, the commander
and gorges to see would be nice.
I don't think the Marines and the other alien evolutions
really need that message there though, only for the
building units.

It was implamented to help playtesting. It wasn't taken out till a bit after public release. I would have to vote against re-implamentation as it gives the other team free scouting information on how many nodes they should be looking for.
well, you could just count them on the minimap
It is very useful, so much so that I begin to miss it when playing on other servers.
I know, they should get rid of x-hairs also, becuase people can just put a dot on their montier with a magic marker.
Its not a point that you can all ready do it, its that there is an easier way to do it.

Yes.. but why would you want anyone to have to reimplent a whole new system for something that takes 1 second to do and imho works better than the old system because you can see WHERE the RTs are.
I'm getting rather tired of people asking: where do I go comm? I just said get RTs.. surely you don't need me to tell you which ones are free.
Old system: Easier, you don't have to hold your map button but you don't have a clue which RTs are actually free
Map system: So you have to hold your map button, wow.. that's a lot of effort <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> , and it tells you which RTs are where (including ones that are under attack if you happen to have MT)

What the hell? No one was suggesting removing the minimap, and yes, damnit, counting symbols on a picture takes far too long when time is of the essence.

*blinks* Have you not been reading anything that was said in this post? The system was already in in 2.0 and it would not be hard at all to add a display counter to the HUD.
anyway i have get used to estimate
same.
That way the lazy people don't have to count and the weird people can still practice their counting. I would like to see a number display thingy reimplemented.
so i do that... n as im countin i get CHOMPED...
kinda defeats the purpose...:-\
the process of finding these things out should be left to a good comm / patrolling skulks
