Proximity Chat

[GranSniffle]

I believe that Proximity Chat would help this game thrive more then it already has. For content creators it would have more funny moments that aren't just silent fights. For anyone who doesn't plan to be a content creator this would also be a good idea because if other players are using the Proximity Chat then you can round your way through the map to get to the voices you've been hearing from afar, and maybe you hear a conversation you wish you hadn't heard.

Everyone just uses discord so they don't give away their position, and proximity literally adds nothing but toxicity.

Just because you've made some friends through in-game chat doesn't justify their usage or indicate any sort of benefit to gameplay.

If you want to make friends, join discord groups, literally the same thing.

ive had quite a few enjoyable encounters with proximity chat in sea of thieves

Proximity chat in Tarkov made the game a lot better. For the people against it and thinking it will make it worse, don't base your opinions just because you only played csgo or cod

WE DO NOT NEED CONTENT CREATORS. THE CONTENT HAS ALREADY BEEN MADE.

If the content has already been made why is the game not released yet ?
Also my ears are bleeding and he was talking about other content - but you knew that already.

I have no doubt that the game will be more popular with features like this. But at the same time, it'll turn into something I really dislike. The spooky atmosphere of going through a creepy ass dungeon will be gone the minute you hear that twelve year old kid, shrieking at the top of their lungs in the room next to you.

So make it optional. Problem solved.

NO! Just NO! That would ruin this game. I do NOT want to be the N word by a bunch of 12 year olds every time I encounter other players in this game. If they do add it, I sure as hell hope we can turn it OFF in the settings so all the 12 years olds can just scream vulgarities and racist slang at each other.

VOIP is already confirmed. Dunno if they misspoke but this coming test is supposed to feature it as well as a new solo only dungeon. These could be totally incorrect so dont expect them to for sure be there.

There was a recent QnA where it sounded like that was what is planned for this test.

I just recently watched a video confirming VOIP. so to everyone who didnt want it oh well, just turn it off. For everyone onboard we gottem.

That's a strange hill to die on.
Imagine suggesting that SQUAD doesn't benefit from voice chat. lol

Even COD MW2 (the latest one) has proximity chat in warzone 2.0 and it's fantastic.

I can't think of any game that didn't benefit from some kind of voice chat or proximity chat.
