That's the way the game plays, you don't see the contact icons until you have a visual or radar, TMO same way. I thought RFB nerfed the contact icons when they got close? What I want is no contact icons at all like contacts off, but sonar lines.

I'm not sure what Steve is saying. I would assume there's a difference between the sound and direction. Sound comes from a direction, but the sound covers a 360 pattern of degree's, you happening to hear it doesn't mean it's coming just to your direction, someone else could hear it from a different direction, but I assume Steve is saying it's directional when you're the one picking it up and I agree. That's what I hate in game, we just hear the ping, but have no idea of direction it's coming from. I'm sure inside the sub the ping sound may be rather omni sounding, but the sonarman could easily figure direction.

If a bear farts in the forest and no one hears it did it actually make a sound.....
