Mic/No Mic matches

Mepic Von Shreck:
Over the last two days after returning, I've only found myself in one fun game, which was with some Cakes. They, thankfully, were using voice chat, and we did very successfully as a result.  However, almost every other game I have joined has silent crew on it, which not only is bad from a game point-of-view, but also from the point-of-view of having fun. There is nothing fun about a crew that is totally silent and running around aimlessly, as these all were. Even today after doing one match, I had to leave on account of the silent crew, with a silent captain whose only contribution to the whole game was to say in text chat "just do whatever, I don't care".

This is really a problem for those who do have the ability to use voice chat and are willing to.

Thus, I propose an added option for the match creation: Voice chat Yes/No/Either.

"Yes" would mean all must have a mic and are willing to use it.

"No" would be mainly for those without mics or those not willing to speak.

"Either" would be what we have now, a mix of those who speak and those who don't.


Thanks,

Mepic.

Why should such restrictions exist? I agree, games with cahtting crew are more fun, but that doesn't mean someone should be forced to talk or not to talk.
I'm not very talkative person and I prefer to focus on piloting rather than entertaining my crew. Also I'd rather use ingame command than say something in mic because it's very quiet. So you may not hear a single word from me. But why should it mean that I should be sent to some "No mic" ghetto?

Mepic Von Shreck:
This is why the "Either" option would exist. I just find that without communication, it's very, very frustrating.

And take into consideration that the higher you get the more ppl actually have and use a mic.
Im quite experienced player but not that experienced as pilot.
I barely talk when i fly cause i concentrate on what i do rather than talk alot.
I stick to basic needs and concentrate rather than talk all the time.

In Novice games ppl barely use their mics or dont have one but in higher lvl games you normally get guys with mics.

I know this. The people I was flying with were in the 100s of matches played... I never go onto novice games.
