When you ping an enemy it pops up in the feed but only for the squad. I think it would be useful if they showed the same if you break an enemy's shield to let the rest of the team know so they can push. Or put it as ping communication.

@Lord_Scorpion34There's a small chance that this is actually in the works already. Saw this the other dayhttps://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/owj1ld/enemy_shield_broken_shown_in_killfeed_during/

@MandatoryIDtag One shot mate one shot!

They've added a lot of voicelines, too many I think. Bangalore asked me if I had any plans for the weekend, and Revenant asked me if I knew a good local plumber.

False shield break callouts be a pain too lol. 😛

@damsonwhufndthis Yea, that's my problem. Half the time, in the middle of shooting at one team, it doesn't click in my head when I hear the 3rd party alert

@damsonwhufndthis Voice lines can get cluttered and be overtaken by gunshot sounds and whatnot, imo. I would prefer it showed up in the kill feed, like they appear to be testing (check video I posted above). I'm doing good to hear the current voice lines alerting me to an encroaching 3rd party, Lmao

If you can hear "there's another squad attacking" "ambush ambush there's another squad" "guys who invited the 3rd party?"
You can hear "Their shield's broke, only gods can protect them now"

@dSKyNafinchinthat sounds like a you problem lol,
surrounding situation awareness is one of the key aspects in virtually any shooter

@damsonwhufndthis Oh, I'm fully aware. It's not an awareness issue, but a hearing issue. I've been to too many concerts and listened to too much music at super high volume through my years. When I'm actively shooting at someone, I have a hard time even hearing my buddies callouts in our party chat. I could slide the audio mixer a bit more toward party chat, but then I wouldn't hear all the footsteps, so it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. My 3rd party alert is typically when I get shot XD I tend to keep a close eye on my surroundings (in games and real life), so I usually know when there's another squad.

Putting it in the kill feed would help me quite a bit. I can always see the kill feed in my periphery, so I wouldn't miss the intel
