Blizzard is finally making changes to Overwatch 2’s ping system
Overwatch 2’s well-intended yet notorious context-based ping system has been under the crosshairs of players due to a long-term undecoded issue, which has been preventing important prompts like “Group Up” and “Need Healing” from being announced accurately. To defuse the complaints, Blizzard is finally planning to address the unfavorable situation with the game’s upcoming mid-season update.
On April 29, an Overwatch 2 player called WitheredBarry posted a Reddit thread highlighting his woes with the popular hero shooter’s ping system. He mentioned how he was unable to call for grouping up using the “Group Up” ping, which, instead, announced the “I am with you” prompt.
