  • @bulldog314 Maybe people listen to you for like 20 seconds..
    And then they decide they don't really want to communicate anymore.
    Something you might consider?

    Yeah, I have a perfectly working mic but I rather shut the hell up and use pings to communicate whenever some annoying kid start yammering on the team channel with such an awful slavic accent that makes whatever information he tries to communicate just become confusing, distracting and misleading.
  • @bulldog314People are not obliged to talk to you if they don't want to ,if u dont like playing with randoms go squad up with a pre-made, if your mic is garbage 9/10 you’ll get muted if theres static like you’re in a blizzard sending a distress message bro im muting you!!

    @SethCurry This right here’s the truth! Or when I’m not even in the legend select screen and already hear some gosh awful music in the background or as close to the mic as possible. Other things that leads to me muting: laughing with a friend, ‘fortnite’ voice (we all know those 12 year old pre-pubescent high pitched voices with that West Yorkshire accent), making weird sounds, saying ‘hey, hey, hey’ over again, getting that cheap headset echo feedback into my mic, that cheap is-someone-at-the-barber-with-that-clipper-going-off-everytime-the-mic-gets-sound-input sound...

    These all will get you muted within the legends menu...
  • @bulldog314 Worst part I’ve been dealing with is that people don’t use their mics and shows they don’t have them at all until they die then as I’m playing for the win they cut their mics on screaming about how trash I am for not rescueing their no mic using butts the wholllle game. It’s rather irritating to communicate with no one watch them die then have them turn their mics on to talk crap
  • @bulldog314 Tbh I rather have teammates with no mic at all... so i just started muting everyone on purpose, in casual mics are usually more of a distraction or just a means for toxic or trolling behavior, I do think for ranked play they should have an option to either queue with players with mics or choose not to queue with players with mics though as its more important but I still hate mics in general I may understand 1 player out of 10 and the rest are either static, keyboard clicks,music, tv/voices in the background, etc and are just more distracting than helpful, even if you can hear a player they usually don’t know what the hell to do and Ive literally only had about 5 randoms max out of 1000+ hours of gameplay who actually knew what to do and actually were helpful with their mic

    If they don't talk, silence them. That way they won't talk trash when they die. 😊

  • @bulldog314 They have an option to disable mics. Currently you can mute them when selecting a legend or in 'tab>squad', but most of the time I don't want to hear people at all. So, switching it the incoming voice volume settings to 0 is great option. Also set yourself to push-to-talk.

    And yeah, I get people who legit do not contribute to the teamwork at all and him and the 3rd would get knocked and killed and just go "YOU'RE SO BEEPING BAD" "YOU'RE TRASH", etc. when the tea is that *I wasn't the one who got myself killed first*.
