This happens because you have level 4 signals. I don't have that so I see my teammate's name, it's just a feature of ET.

Quote

Signals bonuses include:

Improved Resources: Ammo packs now give two ammo clips instead of one when picked up, and deplete only 15% of the player's power meter instead of 25%.
Improved Signals: Artillery calls and marker flares only cost 2/3rds of your power bar, allowing a player to call in airstrikes more frequently.
Improved Air and Ground Support: Artillery strikes last twice as long, and airstrikes have two planes instead of one.
Enemy Recognition: Disguised enemy Covert Ops can be identified. Targeting one will result in "Disguised Enemy!" appearing, and their position will be revealed on the command map.

 

I think this carries over for all classes because of g_skills having flag 8. If so then this is what you'll have to convince DD to change but I could be wrong 😛.

g_skills Flags

 

1 level 4 battle-sense can spot mines for team

2 level 4 explosives-and-construction skill carries over to all classes

4 adrenaline carries over to all classes

8 level 4 signals enables all classes to spot disguised enemies

 

Most people on Jay1 have level 5 in all skills so that's why you're immediately being seen.

what its supposed to be is the name of the persons uniform you took, not a give me of "disguised enemy". anyone with binoculars or just moving their cursor around just points at teammates to look for disguised enemy. its not really skill anymore, its just who has the brightest nametag

Yes it does, I quoted the abilities you gain from leveling up signals from level 1 to 4. Level 4 is the end of where default ET stops adding skills so it'd make sense that all mods by default have this feature. Some have the ability to turn them off, again like I quoted to you, there's a server cvar that can be modified to do this.

well then why is this not modified? makes no sense to have a handout win

I dont see the issue, as far as I know, on silent it doesn t show anything at all, or your own name (if they took your uni) which is also very easy to spot.

 

I believe on silent enemies in disguise have some kind of damage reduction, which makes them strong. With how good the FG + adrenaline is on jaymod, I dont see them changing the covert ops class.

Dude, I looked, I don't see that. I just see the name of the players who's uni got stolen, but then I have level 1 signals

There's no dren on jay1

The default on Enemy Territory as far as I understand it was that Covert Ops would take the disguise of the enemy they stole the uniform from. Lets say they stole the uniform from player X. The opposing team would then see them as "Player X". The only exception were players who were playing under two conditions. 1) They were field ops. 2) They were level 4 field ops. If both these conditions were met, they would identify the covert op as "enemy in disguise".  

 

Using custom mods (jamod, silent etc), there are now lots of different variants on that. On some mods, there is only one condition: 1) having level 4 field ops. You don't actually need to play as a field ops, just be a level 4. On other mods you can also take the weapon. 

 

I think that is how it works anyway...

So can we make an adjustment to where your not giving a handout to the enemy? Specifically the time your dot appears on the compass and disguised enemy showing up

I play covert operative...a lot.  It is my happy place. No whiney bishes demanding to be revived, no cheap ass pot metal pliers of dubious origin failing in the heat of battle.  This why I play on Silent1 most of the time.  Only the wily FOP can really "out," you if you are careful.  Nothing beats becoming a human airstrike that slips into the defense and obliterates 2-4 critical defenders with a little knife  in 3 seconds   HAIL!!! Spy in disguise.
