VOIP Solo Que - Cheating?

[Llus]

Also a lot of people have said "it's not an advantage because Voice Chat is free for anyone to use" While this is true I think it's a dumb argument.. and is just being said to try n justify their actions by saying "but.. hey.. they could do it to"

What it comes down to is that since Voice Chat isn't available in the Game itself and That only a portion of the PvP player base is in the Discord channel that has been refrenced.

Yes the channel is free to join but it's a fact that not EVERY player has access to it right now and the players that are in it and choose to use VOIP are at a significant advantage.. so what's the solution to all of this? Spam the Discord Channel so that every single PvP Player is in it? lol or Implement Voice chat in the game client? (Pigs are going to fly" or just turn the other cheek?

Restore feast chat and implement in-game VOIP.

I'm not 100% sure why people are scared to chat. This is not a troll post, everything I'm about to say is 100% serious.

There is a player on Primal datacenter with autism, not like toxic calling someone autistic, but real doctor diagnosed autism. He has had social problems he has had to deal with entire life. I invited him to VoIP with me on stream one game, dude comes in, talks to me the whole game, we lose, but he is a champion of the light in my eyes now for having the courage to do that. I'm not sure why people are calling it scummy when the only people who are activly prevented from using it are deaf players.

Everyone can use it is a fine argument, it not being against the TOS is a fine argument. VoIP is the new meta for high tier play for players who win by communicating rather than having top mechanical skill, embrace it or avoid it. You can pick ninja everygame too, just because some dude is picking monk doesn't mean it is scummy.

Maybe this means in the future they will get rid of solo rank que and just have team que. Would solve a lot of problems. No need for reporting team mates. Teams could coordinate how they chat as well. Teams could all go ast mnk.

What's scummy about being able to communicate effectively with your teammates?

Don't misunderstand me. There is nothing scummy about communicating effectively with your
team. The scummy part to me is like it's taking advantage of the general player base that is at a
disadvantage not using voip, when most know a lot of people don't use voip, it's not in-game and
there is now no chat.

If SE were to implement their own voice chat I'd fully support it but I personally do not feel it very
sportsmanship like when odds are they aren't using voip.

That it's scummy is just my unfiltered opinion in response to op.

The scummy part is circumvented by the fact that VoIPs are freely available to all but hearing/speech impaired players, and that people who don't use it do so by choice. Maybe some truly don't know it's an option, and that's unfortunate, but there's a large number of players that willfully refuse or avoid using voice chat for all kinds of reasons.

Honestly, that's on them.
