I find myself using “group up with me” when I actually wanted to say retreat.
I think there should be a voice line for that. When you see the fight is lost, and there’s nothing to do other than flee and regroup next the spawn.
They should do a whole communication system with voice lines like the one that Paladins has.
They have some similar and other voice lines in the files, maybe they could rework the com tab and add more to the wheel in OW2
like:
What’s special about their voice lines wheel?
Also, it would be interesting to see how each character deals with “failure”.
I can see Rein yelling “run for you lives” but what would Reaper say?
I’d also love “wait to ult until I’m there so we can combo”, or something that rolls off the tongue better
The game needs voice lines to tell your teammates you wanna be aggressive and engage and also for when you wanna be defensive and disengage.
A “retreat” voice line just means you wanna play defensive and disengage.
People just wanna better follow ups for the actions they are planning.
I would like to have a “Sorry” voiceline.
Wouldn’t a “no” voiceline be better and more versatile?
Soldier: Negative
Mercy: I disagree
Reaper: Not Happening
Something like that
I love this idea “Fall back, fall back!” all dramatic
With emotions and voiceline with sad tones. Real cinematic like. I would love it. It make me feel like i’m fighting a real battle on virtual frontlines.
But only let tanks be able to use that voiceline. Nothing in this game is more annoying than trying to be aggro with a tank while your supports are busy spamming “group up with me” instead of holding W like they should be.
Negative voice lines are too “toxic”. But Orisa can say do you need a hug, and be toxic.
I agree that we need aaaa lot more voice lines… retreat… or “I need assist” for healers! Or “I am being attacked”
The Paladins one is really confusing.
We do not need a Hello and a Thanks comm as kind as it is, its just not essential,
however what they should do is rework it so that you can change the wheel to how you want it to be (swap in things like voicelines and add more comms), because the Emote comm and the VL comm in the wheel are usless and not needed.
And then people wonder why I don’t use any chat at all
Blizzard isn’t all that consistent with their rules and explanations.
Probably something like “Get. Out.” in an edgy voice or something like that.
