Apex Legends players want upgraded ping system to improve looting RespawnApex Legends players are hoping that Respawn Entertainment will hear their calls and add an extra set of pings for getting upgrades to weapons and armor. Apex is going strong after the release of Season 3: Meltdown, with fans coming back to Respawn\u2019s free-to-play battle royale to get their hands on a flood of new seasonal content. A new map, a new legend in Crypto, and new weapons are usually easy winners to get players on-board, however, some are still calling for changes. Specifically, they want to have in-game pings and voice lines to ask for better equipment \u2013 just like they do when they find items in drops, boxes, or even just on the ground. The idea was floated on the Apex Legends subreddit by user caiine, who stated that pinging equipped items should trigger a call for needing higher levels. \u201cSometimes I want to tell my teammates that I\u2019m still looking for a backpack level 2 or heavy ammo magazine level 2 or higher, but I always have to type that out,\u201d the player posted. They also added that it would be a \u201cnice feature,\u201d and something to improve the game\u2019s quality of life \u2013 which the developers have made strides to change in the past. While some may assume that the other fans would shoot down the idea and suggest using a mic or continue on typing out the request, that wasn\u2019t the case. One Redditor, PhoenixDaddy, added: \u201cGonna get a bunch of \u2018use mic\u2019 comments, but I\u2019m with you. The worst is having a 1X sight on your sniper, and having to take it off to ask for sniper optics.\u201d Another, Rexiel44, even took the idea up a level: \u201cAgreed, and pinging a hop-up should say \u2018I need x weapon or y weapon\u2019 that goes with that hop-up.\u201d As the Respawn team hasn\u2019t been averse to adding quality of life changes that fans have suggested in the past, they could very well find a way to make this happen in-game. However, it joins a growing list of requests from fans who want to see changes made to looting on console in order to put them in equal standing with PC players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
