I don't really get the appeal of voice chat for this game. do you really want mouth breathers and ultra competitive retards telling you what to do?

>>378331575
It's a requirement for online games. There's a reason why voice chat with randos has been a thing in almost every online game since the 2000s. Sp1atoon would have been much more enjoyable with it.

It really wouldn't. It would be fine if people actually used it for the purposes of coordinating a team, but they just call each other niggers and rage when someone on their team is worse than them, or someone on the other team is better. Voice chat is pointless because gamers are too stupid to use it.

Voice chat is always cancer

>>378332276
We are aware. We just don't want something that is so awful it needs to be muted.

And voice chat always needs to be muted. There's not one game of Mario kart worth hearing what people have to say.

Someone said yesterday that people who want voice chat have no friends and it's there only socializing. That sounds about right. You fat losers are so lonely that

>>378333024
yeah, it's totally more convenient to type your thoughts in the middle of multiplayer session

>>378330247
voice chat is not needed for this game at all

perhaps you should try to take a painting game with squiddos less seriously?

Nintendo is smart.

They know most people don't want to hear:

- Shitty music blasting in the background
- A baby crying
- Children screaming
- A couple arguing
- etc...

When they want to play their game. Gaming is best done in silence, with the authored audio from the game pulling you in and establishing the mood. There is no value in allowing a 30 year old to scream "Nigger" into your ear 40 times because you paintrollered him.

>>378333051

It is pretty impressive that Nintendo continues to put McRibs into Mr.Wizard's pockets in exchange for stage time

>>378333024
This is the exact opposite of true. Most people who try to trash talk online are too afraid to let people hear their voices. Most 'toxic' behavior is in text chat. If you force people to use voice they will work together more.

so?

That only works like 3% of the time unless you have an organized group of friends. In which case Splatoon 2 DOES support voice chat for those matches.

>>378333461
Wrong. It's far easy to shit on someone when all you need to do is move your goddamn lips. There's hundreds of thousands of hours of fucking awful in-game voice chat to prove you wrong.

>>378333352
>voice chat is literal cancer outside of organized groups

This. Any good voice-chat is done on discord usually.

People who get invited to chill discord chats and people who rage over their inability to rage over pubchat typically aren't the same people.

Like I said last night, this would only work in regional in America and Japan. Europe is fucked though with all the languages. So if there is a regional mode, you have a right to complain about voice chat.

You know that every game that has voice chat has an option for voice chat volume, so you can easily turn it off if you don't want that option. But hey, having free choice is bad right and everyone adheres to a single collective opinion that you spastics just happen to spout en masse the second someone has a complaint about the matter.

EA Star Wars Battlefront and LoL doesn't have voice chat. Are you going to fucking bitch about them or do what they say and go on Discord?

>still the same amount of online features as the Wii U with no improvements

To understand why there's no voice chat, go read some Miiverse posts some time. Those are the people you would be sharing voice chat with.

Agree with all those points, but I'm really hating this all multiplayer games have voice chat meme that gets brought up every time someone talks about Splatoon 2 on here.
If it's possible to do regional only or there's a way to mute, there should be in game voice chat.

Also think about how easy it would be for Nintendo to ban players for doing so much as shit talking if there was voice chat in their games. Going by miiverse, which was so easy to report and get someone banned in, it would be a shitstorm.

I didn't say all multiplayer games have voice chat, what I AM annoyed at though is idiots taking the extreme negative stance and parroting the same 'lol guys who gives a shit about voice chat' excuse in every single thread just like when splatoon did it. It's a team based multiplayer game and so communication is a key factor in high level play. If you've ever played with or against a team that's actively communicating with each other you'll realize just how important it is. Just disregarding a common complaint because it doesn't fall in line with yours despite the obvious alternative being voice chat with a mute option comes across as blatantly ignorant.

>>378336827
>High level play
Games like Splatoon, very casual arena shooters, do not need in game voice chat. Muh War Sims on the other hand, do, because you actually need to coordinate with people. And any way, when it comes to it, don't people who play "high level play" just use discord/teamspeak/mumble for these things?

>>378336827
>you've ever played with or against a team that's actively communicating with each other you'll realize just how important it is.
I know that because my friends and I always used to get together in squad mode and we'd use Discord. A lot. Voice chat is crucial for that kind of thing but it seems Nintendo, unfortunately, have restricted it to friends only. What if some rando joins my squad before a friend? What if we're in turf wars and there's two english speakers on me and my mate's side while four of my other friends are on the other? So many flaws to friends only voice chat.
It's simple really. For turf wars and ranked, have a regional mode and have voice chat. For global mode, you should have voice chat as well but you have to opt into it from a menu. That way, people will realise what I'm talking about at >>378335554 and will most likely turn it off for that mode.

>>378337154
Usually, but putting a game on a portable platform and then requiring them to be tethered to another device for the sole purpose of voice chat is hardly an ergonomic alternative. On consoles most people just tend to use private chat.
