Voicechat (PS4) Forced Channel Changes

Console (ps4) ingame voicechat often breaks, particularly when switching channels. For e.g. when you join a group if you're in guild chat 1, it flips you automatically to group. If you try to go back to guild chat 1, sometimes as soon as you attempt to join the channel, it disappears from the list, you click another channel it disappears and now you cannot chat. To fix this you have to exit the game and relaunch.

Zos recently made an awesome change by creating a delay to accept or cancel joining activities. They need to do something similar with the automatic forced channel change when joining groups in voicechat.

Instead of forcing us out of our current channel, send a prompt that asks if we want to join the channel and allow us to decline. This will reduce chat from breaking and create a better chat experience.

Currently, my guild has to leave guild voicechat when doing battlegrounds because you are forced in and out of guild, group and area chat which often results in chat breaking for someone. Now we use psn chat which has an 8 player limit and leaves the guild community voicechat barren and silent.

Please fix ps4 voicechat by implementing this option to decline being forced into other channels which then breaks chat entirely.

Thanks
