3-D Spotting returning?

I'm personally not a fan of the 3-D spotting but it sounds like it may be making a comeback.

    Not sure if general is the best place to put this as It feels like a game issue.

    But To start off with.

    I EXTREMELY appreciate the team hard at work to make this game the best it can be.

    You're doing a great job,

    There is many improvements.

    But something that irritates me beyond anything is the 3D Spotting/ Ping system.

    Don't get me wrong,

    I appreciate it and find it useful to help a downed team member.

    But I can't help but want to throw my headphones at the wall every time I hear the ping sound blasting my headphones while I'm trying to experience the game And nothing makes me leave a game faster then a squad that is spamming the ping system every five seconds.

    I can't count how many games/times this has happened, And I don't see it talked about.

    The best solution I can think of is please add a volume option to turn this noise down. 

    Or a option to limit the amount of information that is spammed on the screen. 

    It's hard to focus, It's distracting and just annoying at this point.

    Understandably the game STILL needs a lot of work done, Still feels like a massive balancing issue. Some things feel half-assed like the advertisements of the game depicts huge explosions and players getting killed with exploding vehicles but when you actually play some destroyed vehicles  just pathetically break apart (bad animation too) and you can just walk through them. (these two are my only last complaints really)

    But we're slowly going in the right direction I believe and I hope in the off chance someone see's this it's getting better and we believe in battlefield 👍 said my piece. 

    Don't write much so I prob won't reply and understand Battlefield is still a continues hot topic with opinions and ideas so just going to leave it at that. Thanks.

    I learned not to hear it, but sometimes when someone spams ping and gets my attention

    @UsainskiSemperFi No it didn't, without it the visibility would be as worse like BFV, vehicles would be way difficult to find and take down with randoms, and would hurt teamplay overall with randoms or friends if they can't see what you spotted in a distance to engage or be warned of.

    If you have a problem with 3D spotting, just use smoke grenades or play as Blasco since they counter spotting and allow players to push.

    Did you really had to necro a topic last used ~9 months ago for that?

    Long story short, BF games have too much detail and fidelity and soldiers are lost in them.

    Hey folks considering this thread had been inactive since February I'm going to go ahead and lock it.

    Please try to avoid necro posting in future.
