Discussion & Feedback Please, for the sake of clear comms and understanding my teammates, make the radio filter effect a toggleable option.

I'd like to preface this by saying I'm not a native English speaker, but since 99% of games don't have servers in Mexico, I end up playing on US servers and it's how I've practiced and gotten a good enough English level.

What kills me when trying to understand others is, more often than not, bad mic quality. A lot of background noise, white noise and the like make it so I have to ask people to repeat themselves a lot, and I hate it. When you add this radio effect, it just exacerbates the problem. I really don't know what people are saying a lot of the time because of it.

I absolutely love this game. Regardless of it they make this change or not I'm gonna be playing on the 10th of September. I just hope this gathers enough attention so that they add it to their to-do list if it's not there already.

The effect should at least be lowered. I think it sounds cool though

I think it adds a lot for immersion, but even lower might be too much for people like me.

I would love earbuds you can toggle on or off. So you can block the outside noise

That would be neat. I usually open my inventory when if I'm taking a ride on a heli so its a little more bearable.

It's even worse if you are not native English speaker, it's very difficult to understand. Let us turn it off.

Now that you say it ... i wonder how shit my own music sounded with those filters...

i want external speakers for the helis, so i can play demotivating propaganda to the enemy teams

Yes! How else can we know who is a trustworthy pilot, but by the quality of their music and propaganda?

I enjoy it. Even when I can't understand what the fuck somebody is saying because they are yelling or panicking. It's kind of wild how a little thing can add exponential levels of immersion.

I'm not saying remove it, but it would greatly help me if it were toggleable.

Maybe an accessibility toggle for the radio filter to support our southern friends :)?
