0 Players use voice chat?

[Pizzashot]

I tried playing PUBG again and nobody speaks so there is no point of even trying. There is so much going on in a large scale BR and players just run around everywhere and you got to guess what they are doing..

I am going to give an honest and serious answer.

I am one player that turns of the mic, most of the matches. About 80% of the matches, I play with no mic on.

Now, I have been playing since 2017. So communication in a BR like PUBG is very much important.

However, MIS-information is MUCH worse than no communication. Trust me.

Almost NO-one knows when to speak and when to shut up.

After landing, first second team mate is knocked down "Help he is one hp"
Me"Ok, I have no gun"
Him "Cmon, he is one hp"
Me: "Wait, I HAVE NO GUN"

I could do a long list. But I don't care, really.

Most players in 2023 do not speak the Queens English anyway. So it's always confusing mix of ♥♥♥♥♥.

If, I understand that team mates are actaully good, then I participate with the mic on.

And no, I do NOT play solo. To wipe squad after squad of nose bleed enemies are impossible. Most enemies sit still and makes no sound and kill you like the cowards they are.

Anyway, it is what it is. Still a fun game, all in all.

Yep, it's not the Queens English anymore. They're right about the usual state of communication in the game though. "HES THERE!!!! HES RIGHT THERE 1HP" dude calm tf down and tell us where "right there is" place a marker, though apparently pushing a button to talk is far too much hassle for you so pushing a button to mark might be a bit too much as well"

I mute live mics and groups who just want to talk about what ever it is they're talking about, you know those who love the sound of their own voice, I would rather hear enemy footsteps than all about someones favourite TV show, never mind actually hear their TV show blaring in the background or worse, people sitting chewing, breathing, coughing etc down their live mic and this happens 80% of the matches.

Ofc the Queens English is figuratively speaking. It doesn't mean that people speak like that. It only means that your English is understandable enough. Which is rare in PUBG.....

Anyway, to get instructions from a new player on what to do (NO, you are not an expert after 100 hours of PUBG) is annoying af.

they have mics

"but are they good with it?" is the real question

If you speak the Kings and use push to talk I'm half impressed.

Hard to play on a high level with push to talk. When fighting it breaks your aim and focus. However, I use a headset where its ok to have always talk. But I usually don't for the reasons I wrote above.

I turned off my mic aswell because 90% of randoms talk sh...
Add me if you can play and care about your team without a mic.

[Nifty]

Well I need to play on the SEA/AS server because OCE is dead, so mic and even understanding the teammates are out of the question, although I do understand tone of voice a lot better now and I've learned some words. Been doing this since 2019 and you get used to it, all you really need with random players is binding your ping button to middle mouse click and people know exactly where to look instantly instead of wasting time with voice comms.

[Ybrva]

I always use mic and press t to talk and many others do as well. I agree it is annoying to get a squad of randoms where 0 persons but you use mic. Makes it much more harder.
Not the fault of the game anyway.

Or they do not respond or they insult you and so on.

But turning off the mic does not help at all. If i see teammates with mic turned off why should i bother to talk at all?

I don't get a respond or they ignore what i say like the enemy is on 230 degree around 50 meter away on my mark. I mean how specific shoud i give a position of an enemy? O_o
