Many games like for example League Of Legends use Pings for fast comunication
like for example "Enemy Vision" "help" "i'm going here"
i think in some situations we should have pings in game too
Example from today, we are playing in group on with Many biters,
sm1 is cuting trees in woods but Biters ( Winter ) are coming, i wanted to warn him but well...
"Lol <map marker> you gonna die xD"
i send message when player was already dead
half my bad half his bad...
he should watch Map so he know when biters are coming
but i should press enter to send him message instead of w8ing 4 biters to kill him first
i write pretty fast
but some players don't write fast and can't comunicate fast enough in danger
So...
How about You add "Map Markers with quick message"
When player click "G" key little Wheel menu opens and he can quickly ask for help or inform other player about danger
Pings:
- "Biters are here"
- "Help me!..."
- "Look!..."
- "I go here"
- "Go away"
- "Griefer!..."
6 Pings is not much, and this require only little edit on Map Markers
