  • DMG has already suggested this could change by release day, but otherwise, this is the only gripe I currently have with the game. Prox Chat keeps games interesting and amusing for much longer than standard gameplay + Clipfarming, while it might seem negative, helps both the game and content creators. Games like Lethal Company may have only had 10 seconds of fame, but the dev is rich now, so, it was certainly a success, and REPO is now in the spotlight, and also similarly doing well.

    • Bungie sees themselves as a console game maker, and that has always been their position on voice chat. Other console game makers have created systems so that they don’t have to police people acting out in voice chat.

      • [quote]Game already trying to fail on the start.[/quote] I'd wager (heavily) the vast majority of players are far too emotional & thin-skinned and don't have what it takes to deal with trash talking.

        • If it had proximity chat I would turn it of or mute I don't wanna hear randoms.

          • It doesn't really need prox chat. It's also not going to fail just because it doesn't have it.

            • I can't wait to get the violin out the game will falter for a month.
