Hi,
I want to point out some serious issues about Ninja Control scheme Preset.
1. Ping Wheel
As the Control preset sets Ping / Ping Wheel to [X] (PS4) it still requires you to use R-Stick to navigate between Ping choices, well trying to hold [X] and navigate with R-Stick is Veeery awkward.
So simple solution: change R-Stick to L-Stick, even u cant move while navigating Ping Wheel, it still gives you much better QOL improvement.
2. Ping inside Inventory
Even it shows the right button to Ping Request (Attachments, ammo, etc.) it doesn't work atm with Ninja Preset.
3. Ping Map
This is kinda minor problem, but still strongly affects player's muscle memory. So when you open map there is still 'Ping / Set Waypoint' bound to [R1] even rest of your Pings are bound to [X].
Conclusion
I personally think Ninja Preset is awesome for fluid movement and I hope you will address these issues as soon as possible to give us players who enjoy this kind of game settings to have much better gaming experience.
P.S. Couple possible settings to think over:
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.

(after this last update you can config your control profile as Ninja Button layout was and for pinging items inside the death boxes you need to press down on the digital directional and it will show a little box which frames the item them you just need to push X to ping any item inside the box and let your friends know what it is.)
Thank you so much!! It works
Edit: In Ninja it pings with RB.

Where did the issue occur? In a match
Which part of the map or menu were you in? If you don't remember the exact name, please describe the area or what you were trying to do in the menu. all areas
What were you doing when the issue occurred? E.g. respawning a squad mate at a beacon, using an ability, a squad mate left the game. trying to use health items
Did your squad mates also experience the issue? No
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? 1 or 2
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 11.02.19 15:15
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? After switching to Ninja controller layout, (L1 jump, R1 crouch/slide), CANNOT use health items from the D-pad wheel. Have to go into all items screen to select them. Happens every time, therefore cannot quickly use health items.
What should be happening instead? Should be able to use health items from quick wheel/D-pad on any controller layout
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Switch to Ninja controller layout, try to use any health item (syringe, shield cell, etc.) by using UP on D-pad and trying to hold X to use it while in the health wheel. Holding X does nothing. Using L1 (which is what X or jump is re-bound to) also does not work.

How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? When I play on the Ninja control scheme, which moves ping to the A button, I am unable to ping items in death boxes for my teammate. In order to alert teammates to valuable items, I must take the item from the box, drop it on the ground, and ping it. This tactic does not work for some of the most important items, such as backpacks, armors, and helmets.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to ping items in a deathbox as easily as I could if I were playing on the default control scheme.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Step 1: Change controls scheme to "Ninja" (My RB is very unreliable, so I put ping on A for consistent "enemy spotted" pings) Step 2: Open a death box. Step 3: Attempt to ping an item in the death box.

Is it possible to change some controls on ninja? Because you cant request ammo because the button for request ammo is the same button with selext weapon.
