Voice Chat in PVP

is this a possible addition that can be made? It would improve jolly cooperation tenfold, as it is already hard enough to type info to your teammates while dps'n down a blm. :D

I couldn't control myself...the rage...the rage...

Would improve cooperation tenfold.
Would improve ragers atleast a hundredfold.

4v4 light party with TS/Mumble = problem solved

Not everyone has a pvp static though

Call of Duty.

Why can't it be in PvE too?

Yeah i know i dont have one either, but then again who wants to do feast with randoms anyway and with voice comms? *shrug*

I always thought it would be a cool if someone created a public voice chat server for frontlines. From a central lobby give users the power to dynamically create password locked rooms, they could then broadcast the room name and password to their alliances ingame (Im pretty sure most of the major voice chat programs would support something like this). Im surprised nobodies tried, though I guess getting people to use it might be difficult, and probably inconvenient for ps4 users. Plus whoever operates it probably gonna be stuck shouldering operating costs - which may be kinda high. Still think it could work.

Having SE integrate voice chat would be awesome too, but somehow I cant see it happening (data costs and such). On the other hand I think wow did have it at one point, so its not unprecidented.

It had and it was added back in TBC but nobody used it because it had poor sound quality compared to ventrilo.

That's a cute idea really, albeit far too idealistic. You'd basically be instructing the few people who bothered to show up while still having to type for those who don't. Albeit I suppose that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if you still use your quick and easy macros.

Imagining 24~ people in a single lobby is kind of amusing though. It reminds me of this:

Eleven Drunk Guys Play Slenderman
(Warning: Crude language)

Haha, yeah I suppose you're right. Alliance chat gets pretty chaotic sometimes, I imagine voice chat would be insane xD

in older mmo games there was no luxury of voice chat, people learn to get better and if you want make target assist or macros and communicate via typing

Halone's rage pales in comparison to my own.


OT: discord is like, free y'know...

I definitely think this should only be a thing within pvp and not pve. In pve there are many times when you have to rely on audio cue's to fill you in on your next actions, where as this is not really the case in pvp. Also I do understand there would probably be a lot of trolls or flamers, but this is why you just get the option to mute pple right off the bat if they are being pricks. All in all I think it would be a nice feature to help make cooperation easier in an environment that is always evolving and changing making the use of preset macros for information sharing few and far between.

People called for a PvP voice chat in Destiny after that launched. They finally rolled one out about half a year or so after release. No one used it because everyone who played the game with any amount of seriousness was using outside-game party chat.

My gut instinct makes me think of Call of Duty.

My second instinct makes me think of Discord, Teamspeak and so many chat programs that players already utilize.

I can't see this idea fly. Albeit it's nice and has its niche, I can't see the practical use for it.
