Marking Targets

[AAA Roadside Assistance]

By default, MMB lets you mark targets; who actually sees those?

The air drone is nice for a number of reasons (scouting, impromptu c4 delivery), and that ability to see and mark targets for myself is nice; being able to help the team with it is even better.

So, what's the rules on visiblity for those marks? Squad only? Whole team? Self?

Bumping this because I need to know too. What is funny is I never see a marker from anyone. I usually mark enemies I see that get away or hiding or maybe they are too far to shoot but I see friendlies near the enemy I marked in hopes they see it and take them out.

Plus you don't get points for marking which is annoying.
There is a tank I was in where it has the heat filter, it had no guns I could shoot, just scout. So that is what I did and marked all the guys I could see. But I was wondering if my tank operator was seeing them because he was not shooting at my targets and just going for what he could see.

If anyone has more information on this please drop it in.

From what ive seen, its only squadmates that see pings. With 127 people possibly pinging itd be even more clutter on the screen.

Marking targets should definitely give points, especially with it only lasting 30ish seconds. But personally marking targets should only be done with certain items or classes, like the binoculars, or just on the Recon/Squad lead class, with maybe a distinct noise over the battle to let you know something has been marked.
