I like the idea of flares, but they're mostly used for signaling (although they can still be used for illumination), and since you can't look into the distance they'd have to show up on the minimap or something else.
Actually, using the flares for signaling could be cool.
Fire it off, and a marker shows up on the map for, I dunno, five seconds, for both teams.
You only get one flare, but you can reload it at the grenade box.
This would be great for sending a message to your team "help, anyone who can, come and help me!" but would let the other team in the area know exactly where you are, and light up the night, and that it's going down where you are.
