Does the right-trigger doing anything? It's a different layout but curious if that helps. Mentioned here.
The right trigger zooms into the map (left trigger zooms out) as usual. I've tried my button layout on PC as well and it also doesn't work there.
To recreate it just have someone plug in a controller to PC or PS4 and use customize layout. Change pings to left on the d-pad and it won't work when pinging the map. No other button works either.
Community ManagerI'll do what I can to get this raised up to the team if they're not already aware of it. Thanks for pinging it our way. 👍
Please raise it to the team. This is a small bug but for those of us who switched from default controller setups, it's so annoying.
Here's a bit more info:
1. Persists after deleting and reinstalling game on PS4.
2. Persists after resetting PS4.
3. Persists after going back to default button layout.
4. I've read that if you launch game on same system with different user ID pings will work again but I haven't tested this yet.
Basically, it appears that once you customize buttons you nuke the ability to ping in death boxes as well as ping on mini-map.
Thanks and can't wait until this get's fixed!
Solved!... mostly.
1. Go into button layout.
2. Reset the button layouts. Press BIG PS4 controller button to do it.
3. Then select custom button layout *
4. Now you can ping mini-map and inside death boxes again!
* Ping still broken with custom layout.
Good luck!

We've raised this up to the QA team to investigate. Thanks for sharing the workaround fix though, hopefully others find it helpful while it's being looked at. 👍
The same things happends on PC. And there are another issues related to the gamepad configuration. For example, keyboard players can move while they are looting, with a gamepad you can't do that. Another issue is that you can't change your weapon while you are lotting, so you have to get out from the looting menu, change the weapon and then get in again...
