Ability to allow AI to hear in-game voice

[SunnySideEggs]

I've already filled out the survey and forgot to add this at the end, so I'm going to write it here.

An option for lobby hosts that allows AI to hear the in game voice would be fun. I feel it would mean that the in-game voice would need some tweaking for volume and such.

This may push people to use the voice chat instead of talking in a voice chat for extra challenge or just for fun.
Would be fun please add.

Hahaha we've talked about that in our group.
I know most people use Discord these days to bypass it but I bullied my group into ditching Discord to use the in-game VOIP because the attenuation is so damn good.

I'd love NPC's reacting to players chatting in lockers.

Even if this gets added into the game I will still use discord. I'll just make sure everyone has open mic and each other muted in-game.

Before you enter the facility on the main menu, the big button on the right side with whatever her name is opens the survey in your browser.

it would be fun to have this but it could make the game a bit too easy, there's bottles to throw as distractions but if the AI could hear you it could make distracting enemies a bit too easy so it's understandable as to why it's not a thing. Would still be fun to have though.

Very true, very true.

It would be pretty fun, but I'm pretty sure I saw a RB dev on the discord saying that they would never do this, mainly for reasons stated earlier in the thread.

Uhhh what else would you call the enemies, that are controlled via AI, then? Should we adapt to your arbitrarily chosen naming conventions when CPU controlled enemies have been called AI for decades now?

We use discord so this would have no effect on us.

[peep]

It's a great idea but as others said discord would prevent the feature from working.
