Hi Guys! :D

I've just been watching this new beta video and I'm wondering why do these red RT notification appears on the screen all the time? isn't it better to show once an RT is getting damage instead? They never disappears in the new build. For me it's a little bit annoying to see icons constantly appears on the screen, so when having 7 rts you'll see 7 icons constantly. A little to much information. :)

Hopefully this won't be included in the new beta build 215. Because the mini-map has it perpues and so does the first person view, do not mix both :D :P

    I'm sure red RT indicators showing up for aliens all game is a bug that will get squished.

    There's a small addition that I love from this video: bringing up the map seems to add a highlight to the player's location. I haven't completely memorized the maps and so I often have to double-check my location and usually need to jiggle the mouse to see my exact location. From what I saw on Hugh's playtest I was naturally drawn to his location every time he brought up the map. Simple and effective: kudos!
