Voice Chat During Broadcast

[Static the Great]

How can I voice chat with the person who is broadcasting to me, is it possible? I'm curious because I can hear him, but he can't hear me.

As long as you have the Settings --> Broadcasting and have it set to capture all sound from your PC, then your voice will be picked up and they can hear you.

I think he is asking as the viewer, if he can voice chat with the streamer. "broadcast to me" makes me think he's the viewer.

As of now the viewer cannot speak, only type. I don't think they will or really should add that feature either. It's one thing when a troll starts spamming text in the stream, but if sound were to be spammed, it would not only mess up the experience for the viewers, but also disrupt the streamer as well.

Old thread, but on topic.

Is it now possible, or still not? I have enabled "Record my microphone" on Settings > Broadcasting, and mic works on test on Voice tab. But broadcaster doesn't hear me.

I understand it will be annoying for trolls, but on tab Broadcasting there's already the option of who can watching us. So, if the broadcaster can control who will watching, there should be option too set who (viewers) can speak too.

Cross chat is very common on consoles. Xbox Live even allows creating group and ppl playing different games talk while playing. I'd expect on Steam to have one friend playing and 2 or 3 others watch and all talking together. Limit us on text chat is dumb.

I have a buddy streaming a new game and we were looking to voice chat while he played.
