How to ping in Back 4 Blood
To ping in Back 4 Blood, all you need to do is press the Q key on PC, L1 on PlayStation, or LB on Xbox. When pressed, whatever you aim at will have a marker placed above it, and your character will call it out for the others. Players can ping enemies, weapons, attachments, ammo, locked doors that can only be opened with Tool Kits, and other objects. However, even if your cursor is not on an item, you will place a generic marker for teammates to look at whatever you are aimed towards. Regardless of its use, the Ping system will be a significant aid in keeping your teammates alert to your surroundings.
Additionally, if you are playing Back 4 Blood on console, you can press up on d-pad which will bring up a wheel for you choose your next action from. From here you can put out a marker to group up in a certain area, approve or deny a teammate request, ask teammates if they are ready, or put your spray down.
Combine the ping system with the text chat system and you will have all of the communication options you need at your fingertips even without a microphone.
