Are people just stupid or do they not see marked enemies?

I'm new to bf 2024 but I played older bf games. I mark 50+ enemies every game and it's super rare that anyone on my team shoots the people when I mark them. Like I'll mark two sniper on a tower in the middle of the map 20-30 times before I have to redeploy as a sniper(which I suck at) just to take two easy shots to kill the snipers on the tower. My team will be fine with leaving the snipers on the towers and dying by those snipers for the entire game. I played a close quarters conquest game and I was marking enemies at the end of hallways and hiding behind crates and no one on my team would shoot them and they would sometimes just run right past the marked enemy.

Does just my squad see the enemies I marked https://xender.vip/ or does my whole team see the enemies I marked? I also, rarely see anyone else on my team mark enemies players.

    If you mean pinging, where the red flag marker appears, then it's just your squadmates who see that. However, if you're using the spot button or a spotting gadget, then the team will see the enemies on their min-maps at the very least.

    @ElliotLH And even the manual pinging for squad mates is still bugged af! I often play with my two friends and usually one of them can see my pings and the other doesn’t, although he hears the sound of me pinging.

    @RanzigeRidder2 @ElliotLH　Oh!　I knew it. What I often experience is that after I go down, I see my allies pinning all over the place. He was probably trying to mark the enemy who took him down and tell his squad, so he must have been putting up pins right after he was taken down. But obviously, the pin is not even sounding. I would like to see these areas made better, as they are the only means of communication other than spotting.

    @Gurz1019_MP Yeah that's the one - I think there have been lots of occasions where I've had squadmates trying to warn me before I attempt a revive, but nothing appears and I end up getting shot 🙄.

    Also, I find it weird how sometimes when I'm loading a match I hear multiple ping sounds.

    @ElliotLH When I was concentrating on playing the shutdown, I once saw an enemy figure highlighted through the wall. What can I use to do this?　As far as I know, the only time it appears this way is when I am using Rao and the passive is activated, but that should only be visible to Rao himself and I was using Zane at the time. Strangely enough, it only occurred once and I never saw it after that or in any other match. Some kind of injustice...?

    @Gurz1019_MP People spamming the ping button drive me nuts! It does not work as you place and remove the ping so it's hard to see for the ones still alive, and the constant beeping is annoying af. Wait until the enemy is in 1 place, then ping him.

    @ElliotLH I have the same, but at least that sound means you will enter an active server!

    @RanzigeRidder2 The case for a series of pins is when an enemy who has defeated you is actively moving. The sound will tell you that they want you to defeat them.

    @Gurz1019_MP Sounds interesting. Discounting someone on your team cheating and making a fairly sizeable guess, I wonder if someone else could have been using Rao and hacked a nearby enemy? I know this gives the outline for me when I do it as Rao, but I don't think I've seen what it looks like when a teammate has hacked someone. 

    I'm probably wrong about the above or experiencing spreadsheet madness, but it's the only thing coming to mind at the moment. Obviously if anyone knows otherwise, feel free to correct me as usual 😁

    @Gurz1019_MP Yes I know, but if people frantically spam the ping button it is less effective. A few pings to update the location of the attacker suffices.
