This is a start, but I'd much like to see a nav point like when a team mate has the flag / oddball in Halo. Having a big arrow pointing to them and always on the edge of your screen if out of view is really helpful to new players to understand where to be. It would also be nice to see this in extinction as well when you have one player remaining and need to protect them.

We'll try to include sticky pointers in tomorrow's patch.

OMG, that's great! It would be awesome if they were implemented for:

  • Team/ Enemy base in MacGuffin
  • Red/orange tags
  • Teammates
  • The last Egg in extinction (the target)
  • The enemy Egg if you collect a soul in Extinction
  • The MacGuffin location
  • Maybe major powerups too?

It would be even greater if these things were configurable. I can imagine some players being annoyed by these changes.

Thanks for the list. Adding teammates there may be a bit busy for a default, so we may do that one as an option you can enable. Last egg in extinction I assume you mean if that player is a teammate :) Team/Enemy base we'll probably make them appear contextually depending of the state of the game.
