He’s got a point about the spotting flare. Maybe instead of showing enemies on the minimap like usual they could make the whole spotting circle getting tinted red if there are enemies inside for just some vague information. ---

Smoked whale meat is nice. Tastes like roast beef. ---

I think the flare should act like a snapshot of static points, much like the callout spotting. Or at least only be briefly ‘live’ then be static and the static points disappear when it goes out. Would hurt campers and be less imbalancing for the more observant and mobile players. ---

> [@R1ckyDaMan19](#): > > I still miss the showing up on mini map when you fire a gun. I am glad they removed that. Constant looking on the minimap of bf4 and not on the screen. So the flare is now available to more classes? Oh dear. So the classes going to look the same. Watered down. Please say I am wrong? Keep the flare to the recon. ---

That flare though I agree is too much, flanking is gonna be non existent as everyone will see where everyone is. > [@disposalist](#): > > I think the flare should act like a snapshot of static points, much like the callout spotting. > > Or at least only be briefly ‘live’ then be static and the static points disappear when it goes out. > > Would hurt campers and be less imbalancing for the more observant and mobile players. That sounds like a good compromise. ---

It would be fine if it just showed the location every 3sec not in real time. I hated the commander in bf4 and that you where on the minimap all the time. I don’t mind that you show up on the map when you fire an unsupressed weapon IF you have the option to use a supressor. ---

Something definitely needs to be done about the Flare Gun. It is way too powerful in its current state. I was unaware that you no longer show up on the map when shooting an un-silenced weapon. I welcome this change. ---

> [@Tovarisch\_Maxim](#): > > Who the hell cares about those easter eggs? Cant they just work on the game instead of those useless features? Some people enjoy hunting easter eggs. Every BF game has had a dedicated thread where several people search for them so it’s not like this is something new for DICE. ---

The flare is absurd. Massive crutch. ---

I hope something as awesome as the Phantom Program from Battlefield 4 returns. I had a lot of fun _ **earning** _ the Phantom Bow. ---

Cool…but i wish that they had spent the time wasted on the whale on developing a better air combat system instead. [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/batllefield-v-has-a-giant-whale/253932.md?page=2)
