Why is the Syn Server set on Custom rather than Expert?

I always thought it was "full real"

I think their Custom's difficulty is simply more realistic than the classic Expert. On Syndicate server, you can't see your location on the map for example. You can while using Expert mode.

I figured that was why. I like it that way.

Actually you can see friend and foe around the spawn AFs for 3 or 4 Kilometers using the large "O" map on all Expert servers.

Yes I noticed that too. Seems "real" as it simulates radio comms.

I can appreciate that. And those on the same side should be able to see where folks are. Also when there is a foe within that radius. 

Just not convinced that being able to see the opposing sides A/C forming up when no one on your side is within that Base's "radar" always makes for equitable scenarios.

Although in the SYN Server I have never personally seen this taken to the extent of vulching as opposed to what has occurred on some other servers.

That said as long as one knows to CYA it is what it is.

It does not at all simulate radio comms. Back in the Eagles Nest server when enemies were over an airfield, a message like, "Enemy spotted over Beketovka!" would pop up, that's simulation.

 

Right now it's 21st century radar technology and it's really destroying my experience with this game especially since it promotes people to ignore the objective. Even in the updated Syn server now, they made a description with A-F objectives and yet the battle still only happens over the airfields.

Definitely would be on board with this. As there are messages when ground objectives are being met in most of the servers. Adding such messages whilst removing the Icons around the Bases would make a lot of sense.

Yes, much better idea.
