Did you read the thread? If so you would have realized I was discussing how terrible VC is in TCM and other people also related their bad experiences with it. It is used far more for insulting people than for its intended purpose.

It's definitely worth it to spend programming resources and dollars on a feature that didn't work in VHS and doesn't work in TCM instead of creating new content, fixing matchmaking issues and dealing with the problems marring the enjoyment of the playerbase. Because if only a small minority used it in VHS and only a small minority uses it in TCM for sure DbD, which competes for the same playerbase, will be completely different.
Is that what you're saying? Because bringing in a VC feature that most people mute and is used more for insulting other players than it is for communication sounds like a complete waste of time and money.
People are always gonna have bad experiences that's the point of a mute option but people will also have good experiences and make friends in the game they love. VoIP is easy to add so many games have it, its 2024 and most would welcome it. if you dont wanna VC just disable it but those of us that do will keep it on. ;)

Honestly, I completely disagree. Not having voice chat hurts the game for new players and the community as a whole. at this point in the game life cycle, everyone uses either Discord or console party chat anyway. Having voice chat would make the community stronger and would allow for a lot of fun new experiences and interactions not previously possible without third-party software. it would also help nurture the new players as experienced players can help guide them through the fog. One of the issues I had when I first started playing DBD was that I had no one to show me the ropes as a new player, the game is rough and there's so much to learn and no VC makes that learning curve more difficult. This can discourage new players from continuing to play the game. Another big point is that it would make it easier to make friends. Since no one communicates, no one becomes friends in DBD they just queue up again, which would also help alleviate the struggle of solo queue players. Almost every single cooperative multiplayer game has VC and its pros always outweigh its cons. If you are worried about toxicity a simple player mute option would solve that and being able to disable VC altogether in the settings would also solve that issue. VC in-game would also add a fresh new layer to DBD and would most certainly get old players playing again as new experiences would be possible. We also know that VC works for this type of game as both Friday the 13th and Chainsaw Massacre both have VC and I have heard lots of positivity from that. All in all, I wish DBD had in-game VC cause I know for a fact it would make the game so much more fun and bring something new to the game to liven it back up in a meaningful way.
Thank you :)
