I'm curious to find out what the general consensus is regarding proximity chat in Destiny. Is it something you'd like to see in the game?
-
I'd like it, but its already been shot down.
-
No thanks, don't have time for whiny kids and mouth breathers, I'll stick for playing, and chatting, with my friends and family.
-
Why no i don't care option
-
While it's is a cool idea for that one time your friends Mic is dead, as cragthelad said the amount of kids, spammers, and heavy breathers would outweigh it. Also didn't bungie say that they were cutting down on chat systems to prevent griefing??
-
Only if it had an option to accept chat, paired with the ability to turn it back off or remove a user.
-
no need for extra things that can easily be done with your system party chat systems, messages, etc.
-
I would say proximity chat, but really I would like to see a more streamlined way to be able to chat with someone else. Like, you press 1 or 2 buttons to send an invite to someone, they get the option to accept or deny, and that'll be it. It does kind of throw me off when I don't hear anyone in a crowded Tower.
-
Yes, but with the ability to disable...
-
No thanks, it will just be a headache of trolls and annoying people. I would rather play with a party
-
I voted yes, but it should be an opt-out system
-
I think it would be cool as long as it could be toggled on and off.

I believe the way they have it set up currently should be the default setting. Where voice chat, by default, is set to Fireteams only. However, you can set it to proximity chat or nearby friends/clan/etc.
-
If this is to truly be a shared world shooter that's supposed to be social... Proximity chat is a necessity, people need to be able to communicate without feeling tethered to people you don't know and may not want to go down the same path.
-
I'll agree with others and say yes but with a toggle to turn off and on.

Do you want little kids running around screaming everywhere..
-
It'll be full of "WoW was the first mmo." I still voted for yes though because it's more simple to make friends and form parties on a whim that way.
-
Not sure if this was brought up but proximity chat is there if the person is on your friends list.
-
This game really needs proximity chat, it's the one thing that would make this game perfect
-
God no. The last thing I want to hear is some prepubescent kids coming through my headset.
-
I don't care personally, I'll be in party chat away from the general "I did x to your mom".
-
Omg NO! I don't want to be peacefully walking through a field on earth and all the sudden hear a 9 year old dissing some ones mom
-
Depends on the styke you are refering to. Do you mean the one that would be best in pvp? (Where you die and hear you opponent or kill someone and hear them for a short time) or Do you mean, one where someone is within a close proximity of you and you can hear them speak, as you woukd irl??
-
all the people complaining need to know one thing press the proximity off switch and you wont have to deal with it. but for people like me ill get to meet new people and join them if what there doing sounds good. also why isnt there a player to player trade system yet i got gear i will never use and would like to trade it for other stuff.

Only if there's an option to disable it
