I would say it is pretty realistic to hear the dude next to you say something

It would be, inside the tank. With all the engine roar and battle sounds, you just wouldnât hear much
It also works with your squadron, even if you arenât in a squad together. The first time I heard it, I was super confused about who I was hearing.
Pretty realistic to hear toxic slurs about K/D, losers and âhow I met your motherâ on the battlefieldâŚ
This post is about the infantry, not about the crew in a tank
You must have never watched GoPro footage from 10 years ago, then; people say a lot of stuff in combat.
Yeah, I remember watching the documentary about WW2 and soldiers then shouted something like:
âI asked you mother for a date, you, spawncamper, go touch grass, german-main, you are a loser with negative K/D, lmaoâ
Damn my bad. I chose the wrong argument. In that case, battle sounds and engine roar still stands. With chat to keep immersion at some logical level, you have to have your voice overlapping with gunfire, explosions and stuff. Also , letâs be real, wt community i preety toxic so there might be a lot of racism, facism, sexism and all of stuff that violates the guidelinesâŚ
Voice chat should be restricted only for squads, imo. As it is rn. If you want to use your voice as a communication - socialise and get friends to play with you, I guess.
Because else we will get something like dota 2/cs go level of voice chat.
Congrats, you realize some of the issues with communication in IRL combat.
There is already a bunch of this in the text chat, vc will be no different, sure, but report people or donât have voice chat on.
Chat reports are easy, but for VC reports you will have to record everyoneâs voice for every battle on the server, isnt it? I mean, to have something to report.
Well, given you agree with my argument. seems like topic is closed :D
Yeah, it is and with vc itâd be even worse⌠Whatâs the point of vc if itâs gonna look like some low life midlife crisis wife arguing with her husband?
I donât agree with your argument because it is stupid. Itâs basically saying, âI shouldnât be able to spawn in a tank because the enemy has the capability of destroying said tank.â The sounds of combat are not a reason to prevent people from using proxy chat

Itâs one more thing to record; they already record every other aspect of the match. Or they could use AI moderation, though I think that is a stupid idea and will result in a lot of false bans.
See the biggest problem with vc would be moderation. To moderate Text you can set up filters working in each battle. But to moderate voice, eather youâd have to have voice recognition models for each player on the server or spend shitload of time listening to their chats. Itâs just not worth it if you want to keep any type of guidelines in place.
Also I argue that it doesnât make any sense adding vc ingame cause we already have advanced T menu comms and all the other arguments I pointed out.
Thank You for the wee chat. From my end arguments were given and topic is finished. Have fun!

Thankâs but no thanks.
The immature and insane toxic hostility some WT players already have would be out of hand

Which there is no such thing currently in the game. Moderation of text chat is strictly done from people reporting stuff and moderators looking at it
Which no one but your squad can hear. If I am trying to tell a blueberry to do something, I have to use chat, which has a high likelihood of getting me killed because you canât react to anything while typing
Wtf are you talking about? Text chat doesnât even have filters, people just behave themselves normally. And if they donât, they get a chat ban.
There is some sort of filter
Oh right I forgot I turned that off ages ago because it censored anything remotely close to a swear
