They should be. Without 3D spotting and nothing to replace that feature of communication there’s no way to tell the team where the enemy is. ---

When I spot enemy players they don’t show up for the whole team? Are they only showing up for me or my squad? ---

I agree. ---

So if I mark a tank or an enemy while I’m downed and they get a red pip only my squad see that? If so that’s almost completely useless and would explain why nothing ever happens when I mark anything. ---

I have seen players react to my pings. It is difficult to see though ---

Players near you or near the ping? Dice is infamous about having game mechanics and not explaining how exactly they work, or worse, that they are there at all. ---

Pretty much. So if your squad isn’t working together and you’re surrounded by other members of your team, there’s no way of alerting them of enemies.
