I few things I’ve been thinkin about that I hope we see in OW2.
- A microphone test. Something like what you see in Discord. You can test the output volume of your mic and get a good idea how loud or soft others hear you.
- Mic defaults to Push-to-talk (PTT). Really getting tired of people not knowing their mic is open and hearing breathing, coughing, background people talking or their game sounds.
- Remove all the italic text throughout the UI. I see it’s not in most or all of the OW2 teasers we saw from Blizzcon 2019. I hope it stays this way.
- When pressing TAB to see the teams, have some indicator on that screen for your team if they are in voice chat. Put a little speaker in the upper left of their hero portrait. Also if that person is currently on a silence thus can’t talk then show something there so people know they can’t. No more “so-in-so won’t join chat” going around for them.
I’ll likely add more to this as I come up with stuff.
