Incoming homer warning signal & deaf players

Dec 20, 2004 andreas link
Could we get a visual homer warning (like a flashing red "INCOMING" or "LOCK" at the top of the screen). Right now its an acustic signal only.

perhaps have the hud blink red when you have been locked on?

I have no problems playing without sound. I just look at my radar. If the dot is flashing red and yellow, it's an incoming homer.

rogue, the flashing doesn't show how close it is though. I use the beeping noise to determine when and how to dodge. For deaf players, or players who are having sound difficulties... a visual aid might be good.

The closer the missle is, the faster the warning should flash.

I like how it works now just fine. But I guess you could make like the crosshairs beep red or some thing. (beeping the screen red would make me think I've been hit) And they could be just like the sound a beep faster as it gets closer.
