It’s pretty poor form from Blizzard on their own official forum not to have responded in 6 months after the last update was that the independent contractor was working on it. Clearly they haven’t been working very hard, it seems very much like it’s not a priority despite team communication being a key part of the game.
We’ve basically stopped playing any competitive play and really reduced how much we play overwatch compared with other games in major part due to this. Ducked on today to get about 2 games of voice chat before it broke again for all 3 of my usual gaming crowd.
I always kind of got the impression OW didn’t really listen to players that well… didn’t realise they don’t want players to listen to each other either…
Wonder if they’ve actually been giving updates on this regularly but their chat isn’t working either and so we can’t hear them
