"Mute-Everyone-Except-Friends"

Kamoba:
I'm going to say I dislike this idea.
Why encourage anti-social mechanics in a game where we want to encourage social behaviours?
Adding such block features just brings us closer to the cess pits like Call of Duty...

At an extreme I would say add a mute button for players, I may not want to block, but their mic is spewing noise pollution, at least this way I can still communicate with them without my sound waves being poisoned and without such saddening ideas as a button which will only encourage anti-social ideals... Someone may not be onnmy.friends list, but by.muting them I'm not giving them.the chance.

DoubleMDownie:
I can say that this problem is known and has been talked about a lot. I sent in a email with the idea of team mutes / ship mutes a long time ago and it was given good feedback from the Devs. Its been added to the list of possibilities that's what Matt has told me. But we probably wont see if for awhile but at least we know it's a thing that a good number of us are asking for. ^_^

Squidslinger Gilder:
The cess pits of CoD are reasons these features exist, not the cause of.

This is least anti-social than blocking everyone equally in the lobby, because they give you a hard time concentrating, or making it impossible to communicate with your crew, because even if you blocked the yellers, new players might not know how to do that - been there, seen that.

I'd rather put "mute everyone in the lobby except for people from your ship, and other captains if you are a captain.
And it would last only for the duration of sitting in the lobby.

Because it's really damn distracting when people are talking while you try to give some orders/teach people how to do stuff.

Richard LeMoon:
Captain mute option. Allows the captain to mute the other team for his crew for 30 seconds.
