The question is, how many times am I going to have to bump this before I get an answer. This is getting beyond.

Hey @sionibob.
I'm sorry, but we don't have any updates to share on this issue. We've escalated the reports up for review so the team can track the issue, but we don't have any further details.
Thanks for being patient on this.

Also can’t ping the map or loot in deathboxes with my custom setup putting ping on X (ps4). I don’t understand why they can’t just have deathbox ping as r1 like the inventory. It’s really pissing me off as I currently have my optimal control layout that is hindered by stupid ping limitations that could have been fixed MONTHS ago.

Same problem still here, playing on PS4 and with customized controls. Can't ping in the map, altough can ping in the game.

Same, can't believe it's still not fixed. Weirdest part is, I can still ping (request) items in inventory, and ping items in death boxes with the default ping (R1 on PS4).... but this doesn't work on the map for whatever reason.... nor does my remapped ping (R3). If it matters, below are my remapped buttons:
Crouch=L1
Jump=R1
Tactical=L3
Ping=R3
Sprint=X
Melee=O
