So after 600h and 9000 kills, these are the things that I really think SHOULD be fixed/adjusted:
Most of them are just small adjustment that in my opinion, would make this game better: I will not mention obvious topics like hackers, bad servers or OP Charge rifle, which we see plenty of on this forum anyways.
Problem 1: The name above your teammate legends.
As of now the way to recognize your team mates is a highlighted outline around the legend (which is fine) and the players name. The name above the legend doesnt work that well for two reasons: 1, it covers your view, and 2, sometimes, the game doesn't load the name quick enough. It sometimes takes 1-2 seconds before the name pops up and you might have put one full clip in your team mate thus losing that fight. There is also no real reason why to see the names in the first place since you identify and relates to your teammates based on the legend he plays.
Solution: Its simple; make it so your team mates have a clear, pronounced color instead, like poison green or just enhance the highlight around them. This will allow you to quickly spot and identify your allies, and not have his name obstruct your view. At least make this an option.
Problem 2: The banner above a knocked ally and his death box
Similar to problem 1. Its so big and obstructs your view to the verge of being ridiculous sometimes. A crouching enemy at just 50 m can literally hide completely behind it, and dont get me started if your both teammates get knocked next to each other. The banners can literally lose you the fight.
Solution: I see no reason why to have it when we have the minimap. If we still think we need help to locate your knocked friends or deathbox, make their outline more highlighted then.
Problem 3: Involuntary climbing
I just think the climbing mechanics needs some rework to allow you to control it better. As of now, if you move against a wall or object and jumps and moves forwards towards it, you automatically starts climbing. I works well in most cases, but in some cases and situations, you start climbing on silly objects, like small poles or deathboxes, instead of just jumping over them.
Solution: So I think that you should be able to better control when and when not to climb. For instance, make it so you only climb while you hold the jump button or something.
Problem 4: Hold C to jump solo
This is not an important problem but its so stupid I cant for my life think of why Respawn designed it this way =) When you wanna jump solo, you have to hold C for a second or so. The problem is if the jump master jumps before the meter is filled, then it cancelled and you are forced to jump with him anyways. The reason why its stupid is quite obvious but Ill mention it anyways: IF you choose to jump solo, it shouldnt matter when the jump master jumps. Are Respawn afraid that people will press C by mistake or something?
Solution: Simple; make Jump solo/jump with squads toggle-able =)
Problem 5: Ping where you wanna land when you are dropping from the ship.
This is also more of an annoyance than a real problem, but as of now; the entire area around the jump masters mark becomes un-pingable. I think its rather standard practice for every team member to show where HE intends to land, which now only is possible when you are quite close to the ground. This can create chaos when two people in the same team lands on the exact same location, leaving one with all the loot and one with nothing etc. Seems like Respawn is afraid that we are so bad at aiming our crosshair than we wont be able to confirm the jump masters location AND also ping where you want to land =)
Solution: Confirm the jump masters location on the ping-wheel, and make your standard ping mark YOUR landing location.
Problem 6: Dropping items in front of you
Also more an annoying thing than a real problem but its just not practical that you drop items in an small arc in front of you. How many times havent you been standing over a loot crate or a death box with full inventory, opened your inv to drop something and it lands right on top on the item you wanna pick up or on top of the death box =)
Solution: Make items you drop from your inventory land on the ground straight beneath you.
Problem 7: Legends comments
Please let us choose weather we want to hear legends talking. I think its so annoying and it adds yet another RNG aspect of this game, making it less competitive and more causal. When its a 1v1 situation and both are sneaking, I dont want my legend to start screaming about the closing ring. And how annoying is this Bangalore? I know that R99 spits lead, that * besserwisser doesnt need to remind me every time.

Apparently, you cant read. We all know what the big issues are (even if I never experienced sound to be a problem) so whats the point of repeating what everyone already know (and not be so naive you actually believe that Respawn is clueless about the problems). Only because there are major problems, there is no reason to talk about small adjustments aswell.
Its easy to remove the deathbox banner, its hard as * to recode the netcode.

I agree with pretty much everything especially not being able to ping near the jump masters ping at the start of matches and ive dropped items before and they just kinda vanished lol either through the floor or into a wall its useful if i find a body shield or extended mag nobody needs to hide from enemy squads but in other situations its annoying
