Please Sir… Can ask a PS5 question? Using words?

I know the answer is no I’ll have to risk shunting while I search through the MFD.

However.

Obviously I was disappointed when I started the game for the first time to see for the second year running voice control on PS5 isn available.   However we were led to believe it was an issue on Sonys end as PS5 didn’t have voice control. Fair enough. 

But PS5 has now had voice control  for some months.  But still no voice control.  Which I admit even though  it’s not easy looking for the right option on the MFD whilst driving st insane speeds.  I have memorised and become accustomed to how many ups and downs and next menus I have to use to get to the questions I ask the most. Weather, car condition. Etc. so I can manage. 

But what I don’t like and gets me shouting at the screen is.  During. Every practice session whilst in the pit.   Jeffs replacement will offer up some helpful tips. 

And one off those is.  Telling me how I can either manually ask a question or I can just  speak the command.    Is this ment as a joke  cause at first I hahaa🙄but having to hear it every time Practice session.  It’s actually starting to aggravate me.

So as the engineer is so keen to keep informing me about voice control I assume it will be added very very soon?   Yes?  I didn’t think so

    In game speech recognition on PS5 is not supported, this is a dashboard console function that is not available to us for use in game.

    "And one off those is. Telling me how I can either manually ask a question or I can just speak the command."

    I've logged this as a bug.

    "Is this ment as a joke"

    I think you know the answer to this. It is a bug, not a joke.

    "I assume it will be added very very soon? Yes? I didn’t think so"

    See above reponse.

    "Funny I got the exact same MUTE  response last year.  Hehe get it mute response haha I’m so funny🙄. It be nice to get some clarity:   If you can’t be VOCAL  on the situation:. Just   a little sign.  Or something"

    I reponded on the Codemasters forums a lot over the years and tried to answer as many audio related issues as I could. I did this off my own back, I'm not obliged to use the forums or respond to posts - I doubt you'll find many developers who do reply to posts because when they do they're often hit with increasing demands, sarcasm or abuse. I sense a lot of sarcasm from your posts, when this happened on the Codies forums I blocked or ignored users and answered those who were polite, patient posters. I've answered questions about voice recognition many times and these posts can still be found now so I doubt I purposly ignored you. Here is one such instance:

    "You may have better luck getting a reply from him. But he hasn’t answered when I asked him already this year and last year."

    See above link to the Codies forums where I directly address voice chat on PC, Xbox and PS platforms. I may not have responded directly to you but I've responded to these questions last year.

    "ps5 didn’t have voice control support when the game was launched: but now it has."

    As mentioned above, the PS5 has voice recognition on the dashboard, we as developers cannot directly access this.
