Quality of Life Changes - community requests
Hi legends,
This new QoL thread is inspired by @Cabowse's thread here. This is a place to get your own request on the list, or to link a good idea you found somewhere else! The ideas from the linked thread are placed here as well, included many Reddit posts and/or Twitter ideas.
Do you have a Quality of Life request?
- Check if it is already in the list below.
- Post it so I can add it!
One rule: I will only put QoL changes in the list, not requests for buffs/nerf or other game parts. There is however no real definition of what a QoL change is, but we'll try to follow how Respawn categorizes the patch notes. Like so:
|
Quality of Life |
Not Quality of Life |
|
Damage counter |
Sheila angle increase from 120° to 180° |
|
Pinging Ammo |
Mirage decoys create footstep sounds. |
|
A new VO line when using a Phoenix Kit |
A request to turn down SBMM or add Solo mode |
Hard to define QoL requests will be put in the list just to be sure.

DYSPROssium |
| Show the amount of ammo in a stack when pinged | |
| Make it much clearer if an item is dibsed by a teammate by showing an icon of that teammate above the item. | |
