I was happy enough to hear that, but when the GDC footage came out they had red or green symbols on the toons.

I hope that was something just for demonstration purposes. Because frankly if you are going to put an indicator over our toons, you might as well stick our names back up there.
It's a Q key 3D spotting system, same as Battlefield has. Allows players to spot targets and essentially communicate enemy locations to people they can't communicate over voip with. They're not over them permanently, just when spotted.

Works well in Battlefield and ought to work well in Planetside. I support it.
