Staff Officer and Warrant Officer text size increase
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Increase SO radio text size back to BO levels, or increase the size of Overwatch Console messages. Increase size of WO's text
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Makes SO orders and messages more visible to their squad, increases likelihood of important messages getting seen. Same goes for WO.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
BO had larger radio text size, making them a lot more visible to their respective squads. Right now they get lost in the swarms of inane baldie text, meaning it's easy for a squad to miss stuff that command is trying to relay to them. If increasing radio text back to BO levels is not an option, then increasing the size of Overwatch Messages to squad is another viable option - makes SO more reliant on their console. WO deserves larger text too, for similar visibility reasons.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Dev magic and prayers.
Added WO request as part of this suggestion.

Re: Staff Officer text size increase
+1
or atleast make it a middle ground, not the size of SL's and the XO but maybe a medium text? Just so comms isn't clogged with a ton of huge text.
Also somewhat off topic but on the same vein, the WO should also have bigger text.

Yes, either way a size increase is needed for visibility.TheMaskedMan2 wrote:+1

In regards to WO, I completely agree. Want me to edit this suggestion to include WO?

You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Re: Staff Officer text size increase
Don't see why not, as the WO should stick out from the other MP's imo. Plus they are kind of a member of Command staff sorta.Rob606 wrote:Yes, either way a size increase is needed for visibility.

Re: Staff Officer and Warrant Officer text size increase
+1, thought it was a bit odd that the Staff Officers and the Warrant Officer had small text, considering the role they play.

Re: Staff Officer and Warrant Officer text size increase
Can the CE be included too? Hes also kind of a member of command staff and has access to it.
