See the flag through walls in Siege

You know how in battle mode, when the time is nearly up, 2 flags appear in order to prevent camping/stalling from either side. You can see these flags through walls, so you know where it is and how high it is.

Why can't we have something like this in siege?

On new maps where players are unfamiliar with the layout, it's pretty much a scramble for the flag (for both offense and defense), with many people left aloof to its location.

People on defense also may not know the flag's progress? Instead we get people spamming "FLAG" "FLAG" in a chat box that many people don't care to notice.

Being able to see the flag through walls and how low it has dropped will make siege much more enjoyable.

nop.

It is shown in battles, because their appearance is random, so obviously people need to know where it is.
In Siege, it's always in the same place. And if defenders could always see it and check if it's going down, it will prevent succesfull ninja rush from attackers, wich is a fun part of the game.

I don't see how seeing the flag will make the game more enjoyable :
-new attackers just follow others till the flag, no problem.
-new defenders take time when they're dead to look at the map and see where the flag is. Easy.

If you are new on a map, just go spectator to get a quick overview in 20 seconds, then spawn as player.
