If Blizzard support sees this: Could we please have a toggle for voice chat on console?
PC Twitch streamers already have push-to-talk, so they can be entertaining when streaming but also help their team in voice chat. Would be nice to have something similar on console.
Thanks!
Use a capture card and software to stream your console play. Then you will have ptt.
Alternatively, hit your mic’s mute button lol.
I want to stream directly from the console. If I mute my mic, then it will also be muted on stream.
An in-game voice-chat mute is all that’s needed to make this possible. Basically, it’s a feature PC users already have.
Ya, and its a big reason that I don’t use comms on consoles. The open mic being the only way makes mic users obnoxious as all get out on console usually. Most folks don’t pony up the money for a high quality mic that won’t create extra sounds or activate when it doesn’t need to, so you end up hearing everything happening in their house lol.
leave team chat then
That’s the current work-around, but it would be nice to still be able to contribute with call-outs while streaming. PC streamers can already do this by using push-to-talk.
Been asking for this for a while. I’d like to be in team chat but no one wants to hear me blabber
