Funny BUG and weird Options for Mic settings
This weapon shrunk to miniature size before our eyes.

Currently switching to "EIN" activates Push to talk and "AUS" activates Open Mic. This is very misleading.

#1: Acknowledged issue and will be fixed in later patch
#2: Sorry I don't have access to your file/screenshot? You can write the right translation along with the wrong one in the current build of the game.

Can you see this one here now?

It is rather a misleading context than a wrong translation, I assume

It shouldn't say "Microphone- On" Or "Microphone - Off"
It should rather be: "Push to talk - On" or "Push to talk - Off"
or
"Open mic - On" or "Open mic - Off"

Because contextually at the moment open mic is working when you set your settings to:
"Microphone - Off"

After the last patch the settings were reset somehow and it took three of us 30 minutes to figure out why our mics wouldn't work - we had our mics turned "On" in the settings.

Don't know if that makes sense, or if we just were too sterpid to figure out. But it was pretty annoying and we were about to hop to the Blizzchord for Voicechat. It didn't make any sense to us to only have open mic when our settings were set to "Microphone-Off". At first glance we all thought this option would simply deny our mic to pick up anything- that is the actual german translation.

Thank you for your feedback! The option here means the way you communicate with others in-game(voice chat mode). If you choose Mikrofon-Ein, it means push to talk. If choosing Aus, it means open-mic(the microphone stays open all the time and you don't have to push and hold a button to talk.) And we'll correct this item in the later patch(presumably not in this week's patch bc not enough time sadly)
So what's the correct German translation of this option?

Tl;dr: Voice chat mode-push to talk / Open mic

Thanks for the response. I know what the option does. But as I said the description was very misleading for us and we could imagine it might be as well for new players.
Don't use: Microphone - On - Off (That is the misleading thing)
Use: Voice Chat Mode - Open mic -Push to talk (Much more understandable) Just like you mentioned!

The translation is a bit tricky, since we germans have implemented a lot of so called "Anglizismen" in our vocabulary. Meaning english words with german grammar - weird I know. But I guess in the asian room it is similar.
So we pretty much use the term "Push to talk" in german too. The correct translation would be: "Drücken, um zu reden". But you'd sound like an alien if you'd say that.
For "Open mic" it is pretty much the same. You can say: "Offenes Mikrofon". It doesn't sound to alienated. But still a bit wooden. So my proposal for this option would be:
Sprachchat Modus - Offenes Mikrofon - Push to talk

Correct me if I am wrong, any of you germans out there.
