I am turning it off... At least you never had the "pleasure" of meeting a pissed Russian. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic, I prefer to avoid using Voice chat (played CoD when I was younger nuff said) fortunatly for me Warframes Voicechat hasn't worked for me in the 3+ years I've been playing.

Xenotater Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I use voice chat frequently. While it was originally due to my keyboard being trashed, I find it considerably easier to press a button and talk while still moving than completely stopping my gameplay to type something. It's especially useful when doing a raid, Sortie, or event mission as it's easier to organize and lead a squad that way. My only issue with it is that warframe's default voice volume makes it near impossible to actually hear what people are saying until you change it.

-AoN-CanoLathra- Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Why use the slow, distorted built-in chat when Discord does it so much better? I think DE would benefit from removing it and focusing on Discord integration instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmberStar Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 The problem with trying to rely on the in-game chat is that some people automatically assume anyone else is using it. Personally, voice chat is something I disable immediately. I'm never going to speak over it, and I don't want to listen to anyone else. Or their kids, pets, spouses, parents, parrots, or favorite movie or music playing loudly in the background. Or the cookies they are eating. Or their Darth Vader impersonation as they breath on the mic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakais Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Mostly I don't use ingame VoIP because there isn't a need for it. Most everything can be explained with quick messages during the short pauses that crop up every now and then, those that go ULTRA RAPID don't need any talking to, they know what they are doing. In my book, they are more like "fire and forget missiles" then actual players. Sad thing is they got fired by some unknown third party without any proper IFF set up and the word "collateral damage" nixed from the dictionary. I also don't use ingame VoIP because I know my current setup is rather poor. Some have even described it as "next to a jet engine". Also, YES PLEASE to all games in existence with VoIP having it on Push-to-Talk by default. Til this day, I have yet to figure out what the desire is to have everyone listening to their local TV blasting in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's even worse when the matchmaking usually pairs me up with East-European players, who don't speak English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threa Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 My experience with it has been pretty bad. Even with the right settings adjusted it's really difficult to hear people, let alone understand them. This could be a combination of their poor mic quality, their settings, the game, etc. To make matters worse, the vast majority of players using chat use it to brag about their weapons, rage at the team or just add unnecessary noise to the mission. I'm sure it's a godsend at higher end content but for most of the star chart it has just been obnoxiously bad. It would also help if the indicators were much more easier to see on the UI. I like how Overwatch flashes the player name on screen in bright text so I don't think I'm hearing voices in my head half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
