Voice Chat is NOT incoming for PC--- OP was based on inaccurate reporting @ MMORPG

✭Is voice chat on consoles already being provided by Vivox? Second Life uses the same company for voice chat and they have implemented it a 1000 times better. Volume and mute controls for individual users, push to talk, easy group calling, and easy one to one calling. I think they also use a product from another company that gives voice chat 3D spatial sound as well.

This would not surprise me in the slightest.
After all, any time a skill is considered OP, it is nerfed or ruined. Others aren't buffed or replaced with something more effective.

You can't even do this on the voice-only consoles. The voice integration is beyond idiotic in ESO; I've played shooters with better voice options.1 -

I suppose that works too, if one considers immersion to include hearing what is going on in the homes of other players. It doesn't exactly make me feel like I am in Tamriel.

Q: Are there any plans to add the console VOICE feature to the PC/Mac?
A: zos_konk; It's definitely something we're looking to add to the PC/Mac version, but it won't be available until after console launch.
It is worth noting that the Zos dev i.e. "Konk" is no longer with the franchise and also it was Nick who said Spellcrafting was being worked on. Also that article is 8 months old. That said, NO to P/C voice chat. We have Ts3, Mumble, Steam, etc. To add this to P/C is totally redundant..Drakon Koryn~Oryndill, Rogue~Mage,- CP ~Doesn't matter any more

Blutengel✭✭✭I better be able to turn this off on PC because this is the very reason I don't play on ps4. If zos really makes this feature just like xbox and ps4 versions then I'm done. There is a lot of things I can put up with in a mmo but having to hear the annoyance is my breaking point.Time for reckless audacity and derring-do!~

terrordactyl1971✭✭✭✭Maybe the Vivox contract to use their tech on consoles includes a contractual clause that prohibits text chat being added to console?
Maybe that's why we can't get a text channel as it would upset Vivox?1 -

Thanks for the suggestion. I have edited it correctly, too bad I cant just delete it. Saying that though, others might read the MMORPG article and come here to find the truth so there is that...

@Rivan12 Even though you can't delete the thread, if you want it to be closed, that is also an option. Just use the Report tool on the OP stating your reasons.

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom and @ZOS_RichLambert .. WAY more than a little. So much for these forums being the "official" means of communication.
I dont want to have to join Reddit, Facebook, Tumbler, JobsorUS or anything else, just to keep track of what the company is saying.Edited by Darlgon on September 25, 2015 6:02PMPower level to CP160 in a week:
