New Patch 1.6.0 Still no Fixes for Icon Passing
Wish now that they would just admit it's not getting fixed so we can move on with our lives
Forum Discussion
List of posts where icon passing issues are mentioned, there are way more than what I'm listing here and I don't plan on finding every post/comment about icon passing but here is 24 posts where either in the post itself or in the comments issues with icon passing are mentioned such as the icons being turned off in settings, passes being over/underpowered or not going to the intended target or not going to anyone at all.

The interesting thing is that icon passing still works if you know what icon your teammates are. I play with the same EASHL teammates who always play the same position, so I've remembered who is what icon and those passes still work.
What's weird I've seen it said it's a 'rendering' issue in WoC- but the icons render on-screen just fine when you go into settings and re-enable icon passing. It would seem to my completely uneducated eyes that this is a matter of a non-persistent setting change that they can't quite seem to solve.
This is identical to the line change issue where you change lines in OVP and they don't persist to the next game.
Yeah they still work without the actual visual. in 3v3 is much easier to remember who is who but in 6v6 I can understand given the additional players and the speed of the game people can not remember as easily. I think a confusing part for everyone that is used to icon passing is the colored circles under each player having no correlation to the icons (mainly for xbox controllers because standard the buttons are colorized).
