Now I don't really know if it's already possible, I've messed around a bit with the settings...

BUT

It would be extremely useful, especially when playing on 64 player servers, to be able to either dim or completely remove user nametags. I can't see jack shit when everybody's cramped together, and I might end up TKing somebody.

Just hit Alt, and it removes some HUD elements.

Yeah, I lurk a lot

But what I meant was the player's nametags, It's annoying seeing so many names moving all over the place, and I can't remove them

I know what you mean, especially on crowded city maps, enemies at distance can often be obscured by blue/green text...

Or even worse you see an enemy with a green/blue name next to them and don't shoot

I use that alt key to disable 3d map, helps a bit, but it really would be nice to remove the names too; usually pretty easy to recognise a teammate's battledress...

Good idea, atleast there should be option to turn them on or off.

Yeah, but we don't all have 19 or 21 inch monitors.


Kinda thread jacking but it's on topic.

On 1024x768 Resolution, do all the fonts get black borders for you guys?

Later today, I gotta finish some stuff up first.

Edit:

Looked up some pictures on Google.

I think what's happening is that my 17" CRT Has some pixel "Misalignment" so it just makes the border bigger/more jagged.

Still annoying though, having lots of blue and green all over the place...the game would look much better without them.

used to play on 1024x768 with pretty high settings
now i'm at 1600x1200 and lower settings just so the annoying nametags are smaller.

i really wish that the alt-key would turn off the nametags. i constantly hit it when i play, seemingly without reason haha

What's more annoying is the half second delay for them to appear, by that time, I've already got a headshot from my unzoomed L85A(meh, I mean the Medic first upgrade)(Headshot happened yesterday on Karkand, from train accident to the very end of the fog, but it was an enemy that time)

Never noticed and I play 64 player all the time...

Game would look nicer though.
