I don't want a Radar I want a SAI (Situational Awareness Indicator) think thats the abv.
You basically have that now and on narrow maps like bridge ect with the compass it give you almost the same awareness.
The SAI allow you to see where your buddies are to know they are covering you as a team. What you describe above is that very game play. Realistically it is difficult to let people know what your doing using console text as VoIP is not available like you would have in real life. So the SAI makes up for this.
You can still only see the members on your own fire team so again it goes to the team work scenario.
I like it, it also allow you to find objectives easier on complex maps that noobs could spend the whole round not finding with the compass.
