Whilst sitting in the Game in Progress screen you can see the global chat (and chat yourself) so why not display the hint box text too as games like ctf and deathmatch display the time left. ***

Would be much better than watching that d*amned timer count upwards.

I would suggest adding the end conditions, if any, for the map. If there is a time or point limit, they should be displayed, along with the scores for all the sides.

Counter should count downwards, that way you can decide how much time you want to waste while waiting for a game. This S/B in patch 1.3 it is the least they could do to make the MP experence a less frustrating.

I think the reason why it does not count down is that not all missions have a time limit, in which case you don't know what to count down from.

That's why I said that in addition of displaying the time the mission has been playing, they should add the time limit, if applicable.

Sumi said they would look into that and Player stats after the more important bug issues are solved, it's not to hard to implament
