The Biggest Problem

[Bastion]

Is the people filling the voip with crap so that you can't hear the officers and NCO's
Need a way to filter out all the BS. This would make it a much better game. Have an option to only hear officers and NCO's

It is an issue but honestly it kind of adds to the chaos and i like it but yeah it is frusturating there is a mute option if you hold tab

Then you get mute NCOs or Officers who miss important information from a private who is more perceptive than them. Not a very fix all solution. Simply mute the problem child. Time consuming but it works.

There is actually one, but it's not very convenient. You just have to mute every single irritating user (via tab), then you get exactly the effect you want.

Issue in organized play too, when having VOIP for the line, and discord for NCOs/Officers is desired. It's much easier to unmute those you want to listen to than the reverse. Have an option by unit at least to mute all.

In my perfect WoR world, there are mute options.

The current system, as is (Default)
Mute All except Officers and NCOs. Option to unmute individuals.
An option to reduce the volume of everyone but Officers and NCOs.
A button that Mutes everyone currently transmitting in a 12' circle near me, except officers and ncos.
An individual volume slider for bugles in options

My hearing is bad anyway so I try to stay as close to the officer as I can. This has the effect that he is loudest and all the soldiers that are farther away are if not out of range of voice comms, are at least less loud than the officer is. It's not perfect but it works for me. With the new icon that shows who your officer is, it makes it dead simple to find him.

6thAL use Discord as our tactical net. Volume of in game sound can be reduced when someone speaks.
Currently all of my in game sound is disabled. I would appreciate advice to enable me to reactivate it.

in a sense it makes for some social realism.. if those who are supposed to be worrking as a team cannot get it together, then in a map or two you'll work it out - unless your so full of idiots that ya'll do not care.. some times that happens too lol

so a mechanical DEV invervention would not really solve anything since it is the problem based on poor attitudes - not the game itself.

There's no social realism about having people babble the way they do in this game. We really need a way to mute everyone but officers, or everyone but officers and NCOs. I've suggested this several times, but nothing happens.

HoldFast has an option in the sound muting options. To mute all mic spammers you tik a box. It gets rid of open micers and loud mic spammers

You are unaware then of the mute function in the TAB menu item beside all players?
Try that.

I know about using the tab menu to mute people one at a time, and it takes quite a while to mute 80 people. If there's one button that mutes everyone I've never noticed it. I'd like to get into the game and look for it, but unfortunately the game crashes every time.

A separate volume slider for officers works best, so far in other games, like Squad.
