In most Call of Duty/Battlefield type games what reveals your position on the minimap? Specifically I'm curious about: 1) Throwing grenades 2) Sprinting 3) Running 4) Misc actions like call in air strikes, uav use, etc. I was always under the impression that only firing guns (both as infantry and vehicles) put you on the radar but my friends insist that is not the case. I haven't played many newer FPSs so I'm curious how it actually works these days. Thanks!  | ||

Of course this is only if you're talking about literal "red dot on the map" type reveal. If you're good at sound whoring, almost anything will give away the enemies position. You can hear pins pull on grenades, calling in kill streaks makes an audible sound, and even suppressed weapons are quite loud and you can pin point their location if you have a good headset or something. | ||

BC2: getting spotted by the enemy team (someone miouses over you and hits Q) BF2: commander or player broadcasting your position to enemy team They also implemented something like this in CS Source at some point but i'm not familar with it. :/ | ||

Pretty sure gunfire doesn't trigger it. | ||
