Ok, if this has been suggested before, I sincerely apologize, but....
I've always wished that when it showed who killed who, ( in the upper right of the screen) it showed whose team who was on, and wether they were carrying the flag or not. What do you think?

I actually agree, although I'm not sure about this idea being suggested before. Seeing that the enemy flag carrier has been killed would be of assistance, probably more than simply seeing which team got the kill (unless it was a team match...but the score would reflect it). Anyhoo..I like the latter part of this one. [:D]

Yes Dan, I mean both those things, that's kind of what I had in mind.

I like that idea and think that also the chat color should be the color of the team the speaker belongs too... Hope you get what I want to say :)

I agree that this would be convenient. I just hate having to pay attention! ;)

Coloring the name of the person with their team color would be a bad idea and confusing. So I think to replace that idea, a team-colored Dot would do the job, as well as a small flag icon to show flag-carrier kills.

Proposed. Discussed. Approved. Now it's MMs turn :)

Good idea. I think there should be a small pic of the flag beside the name. Ah, crappy minds think alike come to mind while I read up =).

Why is it good? If you dont see who is carrying flag go check it! It is an advantage of the same type that saying who players are attacking and who defending. It is unfair to see that, specially when you laready can know it most of the times by pressing t

Yes. We need, in addition to "flag captured" and "flag returned", a "flag dropped". Also, although seeing the team of people on the death console is useless, a little note telling you if the guy who killed you was on your team (or, for that matter, if you accidentally killed a buddy with that mini) would be nice. And since few people know how to make team chat, and others still might not know how to make a taunt so they don't have to worry about typing extra characters, lots of times you'll see stuff like "incoming up" without knowing who it aplies to, or flag locations when both are out. So there should be a slight yellow color (like the green but yellower) on teammates' chat.

Good idea, but not really useful or nessecary. It's just kind of superfluos cause i don't know many soldat players who actually CARE abouth other people's kills and deaths. Might be good just for reference though. I DO like alomo's idea. You should post that.
