Anyone know where I can find information on what all the minimap symbols mean?
I have tried looking for it but could not find it anywhere. I have also tried downloading the manual, but it seems to lack this information.

what are you confused about? post a pic of a minmap and we could tell you
Sorry I can't get a screen cap right now. One question I had are what do objectives look like when a squad leader designates them? The other I can't remember if I saw this on the minimap or not, do the support and assault symbols on the map represent dropped ammo and medical packs?
when a squad leader designates them, they get 4 little spikes
the support and assault icons on the mini map usually represent those players, I can't remember if the actual packs show up or not. the mini map is nearly worthless on xbox.
I normally play support is there any way to tell who is actually requesting ammo?
I believe their icon blinks but I'm not 100% on that.
My mindset has been to assume that every friendly player near me needs ammo. even if they've only fired off one clip, that's 10 free points for you, and absolutely zero cost.
the symbols mean dropped ammo/ med packs. the objects aren't designated on the mini-map. they are on the HUD. if they are designates there will be lines on the square/diamond that represents the flag or mcom.
