Voice chat (Push to talk)

[Morpheus.usa]

One think that I would like to see in the new release of TSWL would be voice chat (push to talk) over just typing out in chats or general group chat. At least in dungeons and raids.


Anyone with me on this?

Can be used through discord, ts, or any other voip of choice, so I see little reason to add it.

Also, some rarely to never join voip, so especially with the ubiquity of discord and ts, I'd see even less reason to create their own integration :)

I play Planet Side 2 a lot and it has a great voice feature built-in. Just make for a more interactive experience with other payers you don't really know but are trying to achieve a common goal. That's my reasoning for the idea of incorporating voice chat in game. but yes if you know others in game want more private conversations I can see using TS or other outside of game software.

VOIP programs inside games are kinda pointless nowadays. If you're gonna be playing as part of a team or a guild, you're better off running a 3rd party program for comms. Discord is becoming the #1 for gaming.

Not everyone likes voice chats... when they are a feature 'in the game' it can make the game feel stagnet for those who aren't voice chat type people. Because it vastly changes how much people are willing to type - which frankly isnt a lot, they get very lazy when voice is available.

A lot don't really realize how much this ostrasizes shy people, people with anxiety and other mental health issues, which is a lot.

With outside programs that can do the same thing for raids and what not it is preferable that such features at NOT added to these games. Its very disclusive to certain types of folks.
