Option for Squad Only Pinging

It’s annoying when a squad member is trying to ping something out to you, but at the same time someone else random is pinging a beacon for no reason. Please just add an option so that when you’re in a squad, you only get the pings from your squad mates, but when you’re not you get pings from everyone. It could easily just be toggleable too so people can keep it how it is if they’d like.

Perhaps, if not toggleable, a different colour indicator?

I do want   +1     :good:

That is a very good idea. Though instead of ignoring all pings from non-squad members, just give the general pings a different soundbite (less piercing) as well as a new color like Mr. T suggested.

+1 to the idea that squads have their own pings in addition to the normal pings. 

This would be awesome. +1

Squad pings in greem would be nice! and the leaders pings should be in yellow and last for 2 seconds longer!

This too.

Also do something about corp pings, sometimes you get people from your corp in team who you didn’t squad with. Change their ship icon color as well.

Thank you guys, the suggestion has been forwarded.

That is a great idea, different colors and sound depending on who is pinging. +1

And hell, why not a different one for the captain :slight_smile:  I’m half-way serious…it could be useful.

It will be a mess with too many colors, but only in the beginning. After you get used to them they will all be useful.

 

  1. Normal ping

  2. Squad ping

  3. Corp ping

  4. Captain ping

Agreed!

You’re forgetting beacon ping.  Pinging the next beacon would say “hey, wake up and let’s move!”

This would be awesome. Its good to have the “Other Pilots” Go to a diff location and the squad actually doing something without having 25 other regular terrible pilots following you on a secret plan alerting everyone to what you are doing. One button for team ping and one for squad would work amazing.

very nice idea

+1 I agree this would help a lot even know I use voice chat sometimes I struggle to target the target my squad is trying to bring down

man they so need to add this into the game
