Make live display of other player's cursor position optional

Post by Usul »

It's simply too much visual "noise" for information that is nearly useless: Knowing what other players are looking at or interacting with. I find it especially irritating on crowded multiplayer servers. The whizzing around cursors are everywhere, even on the minimap.

Oh actually that's only half of what I needed: It still shows the locations other players are looking at (hollow circles) on the map view. So unnessecary and annoying. If not optional, they should at least remove those moving circles from the minimap... ok on remote view. Can't even see that it's a circle and not a dot on the minimap... like 1 empty pixel in the center.

Super annoying when you are trying to figure out if it's a spiderton of the enemy or just watchers.
The feature itself is too invasive to not have a posibility to disable.
