Player icons don't always appear in multiplayer

[Mark Long]

So I often have the issue when playing with friends where you load into the game and they don't have the little player icon above their head. This makes it very difficult to locate them when playing. If they leave the game and rejoin occasionally this fixes the issue. Does anyone else get this problem?

I had the same issue for a while when me and a friend played. The issue for us was that Player Visibility was OFF on his end.

Basically when both of you are playing Both of you Go to MAP on SCA.B OS(Tab or menu)

Both of you Select YOU on the list

Check the little ICON next to your acct name. If it looks like the one on the SCREENSHOT then player visibility is active, meaning they see you.

If it looks like its closed, then they cant see you. Your name will be hidden while in the map and there will be no player icon above their heads.

Each person control their visibility to the party.

Hope this helps.
