Devs: Suggestion for Death Screen

[CrunkRabbit]

The death screen has been the same since the game came out. If 'we' are going to continue to expand the game to various different platforms to attract new players then we need to teach them.

The death screen is at least 10 seconds long when you die, and it's just a black screen. Instead of having the black screen perhaps the art department could put together some helpful tutorial splash screens. A couple of ideas for splash screens:

1) airhead - What is it? What does it do? How is it made? What does it look like when it's falling from the sky? Who can make an airhead?

2) How to read the map and give proper coordinates. G4 KP 5. What is G? What is 4? wtf is a kp? How do i determine what kp is? Why is it useful to give a grid and keypad?

3) Basics of being a squad leader: Build an outpost. Mark things on map. How do I do those things? What value is there in it? Who can see the marks I put on the map? Why does my squad say they can't see the marks on the map the other squad leaders are placing? (are they lying to me!!???)

4) Basics of Anti Tank: Place your dam mines!! Mines are persistent even if you change your AT kit, or change your class all together

5) Support: your supplies are persisistent until A) enemy destroys them B) They are used for garrison, nodes, at gun, whatever C) you drop another set of supplies somewhere else. //Also a tip: find a good place to drop your supplies for a garrison and then find a Squad leader to come and build the garrison. ///tip: you can drop your supplies as support, and because your supplies are persistent, swap roles with another player in your squad so they can drop their supplies on top of yours to make an attack garrison in the Red Territory.

6) basics of being a commander. Veterans no longer want to be commander. New players are scared of trying. Splash screen of commander map highlighting abilities and cool down timers. another screen showing how you can rotate bombing runs. And show how a commander marker on the map is VISIBILE to every player on the team, and the value of commander markers.

The more new players know the better and more competitive our matches can be! It's nice getting easy kills. It's much better when teams are constantly out thinking each other because we all know how to play and know the strategies.

Please comment with other ideas you may have for splash screens guys. I really think this would add a lot of value and usefulness to the game.
