I was wondering why there is no compass in HC mode? I do not want one that tells where enemies and friendlies are...just one to call out directions of enemies in voice chat. Any chance of this? Or is there one and I just dont know about it?
Can we get a compass in HC mode?

Agreed. We need a compass in some form.
There is no other way to communicate information to teamates without standard directions that all players can see.
Even a tiny WW2 style compass in the corner (even on realistic mode) would be helpful. It would simulate the awareness a soldier would have of direction in real life. Any one of you right now can point North, even if you are in a new place but were made aware of where North is. It does not make any sense in game for the charactar to have no reference point to communicate with the team.

Just NSEW compass in the bottom right replacing the actual mini map from RR would be nice.
Also, maps NEED to be north oriented. On Fallen Fighters I still have some problems calling out directions

Yes a compass and cardinal functions to teamsay chat.
For instance this command: Teamsay "I'm moving C%, need backup!"
Translates in-game to: I'm moving East, need backup!
This will make communication easier for teamchat binds. In Infiltration and Day of Defeat they have this function too.

As far as a compass goes, it is not about whether it was historical, it is more of a way to represent the awareness every soldier would have of the cardinal directions. It gives a way to communicate. Right now there is no way to easily tell a teamate that there are 3 Germans running through the building East of them for example. A simple little compass in the corner with NSEW would encourage better communication.

I dont think compass would be usefull, you can point out your or enemies movement in other ways that are faster and dont require you to pull out a compass.
