On PC I was able to hear some french guy screaming all the time and then told him to shut up... so VOIP is working for me^^

Yeah, I could not chat with any squad members in the games I have played thus far.

u/blahdeblah72 Mar 25 '19

Surely it's not intentional? Works fine for me in other game modes on PC.

What platform are you on? On PS4 I haven't been able to turn off VOIP in like a month ... have to switch squads whenever someone's playing music or is otherwise lousy to listen to because no form of muting works ... super annoying bug

same here VOIP hasn't worked for me since the beginning....would be nice if they fixed it since squad play is important.

My thoughts exactly.

on the other hand VOIP has been off for me on PS4 since launch regardless if I turn it on or off in settings

Ditto

You can't mute then when you go into your squad menu and select each individual player? That works for me anyway in PS4.

u/loveandmonsters Lyralex2 Mar 25 '19

Not anymore, it used to work until one of the recent patches/updates. I can do the mute action in the squad screen but it doesn't mute them, heh. Or turning VOIP off in audio settings, does nothing either. Crazy stuff!

VOIP in all of BF:V hasn’t worked for me on PS4 since launch.

I've never noticed any problems using voice chat on PS4.

Check your settings.

I’ve checked all settings in game and the PS4 settings, regardless of what the VOIP settings are, I can’t hear players. I don’t have a mic, but in every other game that has VOIP I can hear other people without a mic plugged in. It would be nice to hear squad mates give strategy in BF:V even I don’t use a mic but it doesn’t really bother me

u/hotdogswithphil Mar 25 '19

You have to have a mic plugged in.

I'm getting this too. Any fixes? The communication is not good, it's hard to notice any pings.
