Tactical Map Tool Interface

[Alderei]

Here's an idea for an improvement to the current GR multiplayer game:

A map interface tool.

Team Leaders can circle areas or draw arrows on the map for other team members to see. I would think a simple stylus and pad tool could work. But that way, you could draw out on the map itself a path of attack, or point out an area for a sniper to use. You would want something quick to use and simple.

Currently, to communicate with your team you can set a waypoint for an individual and you can talk over the Mic. It's not bad, really. But organizing a large team to hit multiple objectives (like Hideout or Caldera, for instance) is pretty difficult, even when Gamers know each other. "Take the Right Side" or "Head North" is good, but I would think an Advanced Warfighter, with all those 300 lbs of technology strapped to their tukas could do better.

As maps get more massive and objectives get more complex (with simultaneous or time constraints), the ability to give teammates clearer directions would be much appreciated. I think a map interface tool would be an ideal way to revolutionize tactical gaming in Ghost Recon 4, setting apart once again the franchise that I love.
