Pings that absolutely !@#$ NEED to be implemented.
Here's a list of pings that NEED to be implemented, the current system is not even close to enough. Assuming u pick the pings already there and keep them, replacing the Danger one with "Incoming enemies!"
List:
-
Ward placed : @!#$ I can't ping 1000 times for someone to notice "OH you meant WARD there, not BAIT there"
-
Bait here: As in, lets co-op in league!
-
Hold position! Camp there and wait for me , don't go rambo please!
-
Jungler here! A.K.A. let others know where the jungler is, other than typing in chat.
THAT'S IT!
You have your Assist, your defend/attack target ping, your retreat-ping , and I'm going ping, COUPLED with the 4 above that help enhance gameplay.
If there's a ward I'd love to ping others instead of pinging it 40 times and saying "ENEMY WARD HERE".
Bait here is a must, so many times I'd love for people to be "On my way! Bait coming in!" turning a 3 v 1 into a 3 v 5.
Hold position is to tell your stupid teammates to GTFBACK HERE , THIS IS A 5 V 5 NOT A 4 V 5. "But I wanna farm!". "STFU JIMMY AND FOCUS VAYNE, THEN GG SRSLY STOP GOING AWAY ALL THE TIME".
Jungler here, FFS tell others where the jungler is ! It lets you take a tower "safely", decide to go all-in, or go and counter-jungle. I'd rather not spend time chatting "jungler here" while the said jungler is going all gank on my ass or is about too.
Others that are more situational but possible,
- Place a ward here please, need vision before taking risky drag.
- I have TP up, go initiate and ill TP (basically a "on-my-way" tp version) for a double!
- Enemy summoners X and/or Y down
BF4 Has more "callouts", TF2 has even more (lol), why not add these to the game?
It's going to be 8-10 ping sections, I doubt it's that difficult to highlight a section of the circle. Or, hey, have it be double layered, the inner one being a "subsection" e.g. coming and the latter opening up 2-3 options e.g. tp, walking, or same with summoners "blew summs" for both, or subsection for "ignite/flash/tp/heal" <--(only ones that really matter :3)
Any other ideas? comment if you think something's off, or any suggestions. Upvote so riot will eventually get that we need a better communication system, MANY people fail to read chat (especially in my stupid low elo)
