Can we please be given the ability to mute categories of voicelines? This might be a ‘tism thing, but when playing, I get EXTREMELY overwhelmed by the sheer quantity of voicelines being spammed, willingly or unwillingly. What I REALLY would love to see is to be able to mute EVERY VOICE IN THE GAME except ultimates.

It would be a nice quality of life option to be able to mute all “non-gameplay-critical” voice lines (or something along those lines) for those that want it. Sadly Blizzard is allergic to good ideas…

Be mindful if they are spamming, they are also not playing the game, specially in comp, report text and AFK asap.
That would be a nice feature. Juno’s insecurities always bother me.
At this time, there is only a volume slider for Voices in general

Some voice lines are callouts though.
“I see a sniper!”
“Behind you!”
“Enemy has a turret!”
Etc, etc.
The ability to mute them isn’t a bad idea though, since the game is for fun and if getting overwhelmed ruins the experience, then turning them off isn’t asking for too much imo. 
Omg me too, I main her so I’m rooting for her so hard. I want her to find her confidence!

She has a lot to learn in the self-confidence department 
I always interrupt her voicelines with “Im going in!” or one of the Hello Kitty voicelines instead.
Super Cute!

AHH I didn’t get that one, wasn’t a fan of the hello kitty bundle, the skin is very cute though!
I love spamming “lightning kicks!”
And my newest favourite is from the BP where she says something about not knowing which grass is more green. XD

Yeah that BP one is my favs.
D.Va got the best Hello Kitty My Melody skin but Juno got the best voicelines for sure.

As a blindo, I appreciate that everything makes noise. Usually distinctive noises that can help me know what’s going on around me. If Overwatch wasn’t designed with such detailed and expansive audio queues, I wouldn’t be able to play it.
Nevertheless, as a quality of life feature, the ability to adjust the volume on different types of audio would be fantastic.

People with social anxiety still want to communicate.
It makes more sense in modes that allow for multiple of the same Hero, but even then its mostly bloat.. yeah..
There absolutely should be some reduction to it, have the audio OR the text chat and or in-world icon, all 3 with every type of communication is just far too much bloat especially for non-critical communication..
Unless you’re referring to players spamming voicelines, every voiceline the heroes automatically say in game is actually so important for awareness when playing.

Ha, my top voice line is bound to the side button on mouse, so nothing stops me from playing and spamming)

Agreed. i understand blizzard paid millions of dollars for good voice talent but we dont want our character auto jabbering either.
reaper is supposed to be a flanker and he announces he is sneaking up on someone.
i use to believe people were wall hacking. but when hes like “look behind you im going to be there to attack” its like… well.. gee thanks for telling everyone im here!

Tbh, I don’t have any psychological condition that makes me easily overwhelmed, but Imo the ability/weapon sounds are by far the most overwhelming.
Especially since they added sierra and her loud AF fully auto bs. I often just die because I don’t know what’s happening because too much sounds are in the game, voice lines only tend to go off after or before something happens. But all the weapons firing at once is just audio clusterf****. XD

for me few visual effect could be adjusted like juno hyper ring, I cant tell you how meany times it blocked my view no matter if its enemy or teamate, the effect looks nice but it’s so dence you cant see through.
Moira got nice colaesence ult visual change, juno could get too.
They still can? it has audio, it has the chat area in the bottom left.
Why do i need symbols cluttering up my screen?
