SOS Becon

[Ogard]

The code for the SOS beacon is very close to Reinforce, at least close enough that i accidentally throw it in stressed situations.

Now this is fine, but i would like a way to cancel it once it has been thrown, it cannot be destroyed or cancelled as far as i know.

How about it?

Yeah, I did that last night. My duo partner did it a couple weeks back. It was early enough in the mission that I just abandoned the mission with the squad.
Not always a big deal to pick someone up. Finish the mission, thank them for their help and part ways.
Sometimes you're waiting on a couple of other players or just don't want to add a random.
There really should be a way to cancel it.

I use voice attack because I'm absolutely horrible at the arrow button things. Solves the issue for me, and I like literally calling in strategems.

Can you not shoot the beacon like you can every other calldown?

Something to test I reckon.
The couple times I've done it things were pretty hectic and we probably got pushed/re-positioned away from the area. I play in a duo so when one goes down the horde shifts their focus.
"Oh poop; I threw the SOS." Then go back to getting a good Reinforcement call in and throw as the horde punishes me for my screw up.

It cannot be destroyed once called down. I've tried doing so after calling it in on accident.
