there isnt anyway to make the caps lock map a 'static' map that dosnt have any of ur teams constantly changing troop movements but more like a areal photo of the map like this for e.g

There is going to be so much tk it will hopefully be very funny, until it just gets irritating.
Maybe we could work out some checkphase thing, 2xpage up when you see a hostile. If you dont get a 2xpage down, negative right away then its a hostile for sure

We dont do that in the game because you'd never hear the end of what every other person is doing, we are playing games over a period of minutes not months.
I agree the minimap was too accurate though

we kind of need the M map to still have all our positions on them as we are not in constant radio contact with all the other squads/members to know ourselves.

I second Brummy.uk

will be good to take your map out of your bergen and take a look to navigate, before you take out enemies. Will be a nice challenge on the new bigger maps.

I quess I'm gonna like it, though it will probably cause even more teamkilling..

At first, total chaos and whining. Then, understanding and gratefulness.

so true.

regarding *more tk's without minimap*...
I've played without minimap for months, and I know there are other players playing without it... and let me tell you, those guys have the least TKs in game.
Maybe I had some stupid TKs in the past months - but if you played with me, you know I hardly ever TK. That's why I TKpunish almost always, and I support people TKpunishing me.

EDIT:
regarding M map style, this is what I would like to see when I press M, or CAPS-LOCK
