Use your mic if playing ranked
Why dont people talk on this game I dont understand. If your queuing a game of ranked a game mode that is extremely competitive why be so rude to not use your mic. If your socially anxious about speaking f*ck off ranked and play something else. Its disrespectful to those who are trying to win. People who dont speak on ranked are nothing short than pathetic.

I can phrase it in a different way, that I think OP would agree on. Does giving callouts through a microphone instead of text chat, while speaking quickly and to the point, increase your chances of winning? If so, it is your moral duty to use a microphone if you own one while playing ranked. Owning a microphone and not using it is like owning a gaming mouse, but using a 1999 ball mouse because you're uncomfortable with the gaming mouse. Victory above all else, that is the only thing that matters in competitive, and shame to you if you're a 50%'er, like most of my ranked teammates have been in the past.
People already posted why its unpleasant to deal with children with mics
Its easy to block people, nice knowing you.
So you turn off all communications, don't communicate properly yourself, and don't care if your team uses communication equipment? That's an overreaction of insane proportions, it's like crucifying someone over stealing your glass of milk.

If you dislike someone's voice, mute them, if you think somebody talks too much, tell them, but why shut off any and all vocal communications, and still play a mode where even the developers have made it clear communication is important? Just because nobody can stop you from doing it? I see it not only as 50% effort, but team sabotage. It's one thing to not own a mic, it's another to willingly not use it, and choose to play with randoms who expect you to have one.

Not only that, you even stated "don't make it sound like only your opinion matters", as you proclaimed YOU play better with everyone muted, and without communicating with your team using a mic.

people below gold 2 should be talking the most. If you want to progress into a decent ranked talk its not hard. Countless times my teammate has been killed, when I ask for a call out nothing. Really shows what kind of person you are if you sit there after dying knowing full well your teammate needs you to call out but instead you sit back and say nothing, waste of oxygen.

cant really blame them for not talking, sometime people talk using mics only to get yelled at. Not a fun experience. Besides, if youre going to go to higher ranks, it is much easier to play with a premade team that communicates instead of relying on randoms.

I can entirely blame people for not talking. You made the conscious decision of playing ranked you should have respect for others in your game. Ranked is highly competitive why act like a little mouse when your team needs you to talk. I can understand the language barriers but even a grunt or someone screaming "MUCHO PELIGROSO" is better than a silent mic.

Yellow ping made people lazy, and people are hiding in discord and too many people use mics to be toxic and nothing else and don't get punished. I don't see Ubisoft even addressing this either, they don't care that the game has become a mindless TDM mode that is just miserable. It's 1v9 every game as far as you are concerned. You carry every round or you lose. If that sounds fun to you, then this be your game.

If you want talking- play with friends on discord. I have absolutelly no desire in speaking with a bunch of 12 y.o that scream some gibberish and breath into their 2 dollar mic the entire match(in the mute you go). You should rather ask ubisoft to implement a proper ping system

Pretty much why I rarely use in game VC. Theres a very very small chance youll get a response other than a youngster trying to be edgy / someone dying 10 seconds in the round and backseat gaming.

Yelled at? Why play with randoms if you're afraid of that kind of behaviour?

You are playing public games with strangers, what do you really expect? Any lack of organization and coordination in public games is more than predictable since not everyone is going to bother using a mic or even enabling voice chat. That goes for virtually any multiplayer online game with public matchmaking not just R6S.

I highly recommend you use Discord and join a server or something then organize a group with proper comms that you can stack.
