ROTTERDAM-BOSS & reconzero Luckily for us, there's actually a setting for this that will automatically mute other players!
- While in the game, open up the settings
- On the first settings tab, (labeled gameplay), scroll down and find "Communication Filter"
- Change the "Communication Filter" setting to "Friends Only", or to "No One"
Note: From my experiences, if you had manually unmuted a player, they will remain unmuted. If you get them as a teammate again, you are able to mute them either from the squad tab, at the start of the match, while in the lobby, (if they're in your party), etc.
Furthermore, there may be some cases where teammates may not be muted, (such as the other squads on your team in modes like Control and TDM. When this setting first came out, I was still getting voice/text communications from the 2nd and/or 3rd squads at the end of a match before going back to the lobby. This issue seems to be fixed now, but just wanted to mention it, (but you may still hear teammates from the other squads on your team if you had manually unmuted them before and haven't re-muted them yet).
