Why cant LoL have teamchat/voice chat?

ImaNeedThatLink··3 votes·1,342 views

I'm sure this gets asked a lot but I think voice chat is a really good game function for LoL especially. I hate it when my teammates want to do soemthing like fight baron really early and im in a fight at top lane and I have to fall back to type a message. This happens all the time and I can understand that some players can be very "toxic" to others but with that there should definitely be a muting function aswell.

Thanks for reading

Well you can use Curse... I mean twitch chat. LoL has an API for that. When you load into the game, it shows you a twitch bar which lets you open Curse, I mean twitch chat, if you have it installed.

But to be honest. Dota 2 has a voice chat. But it works because people are super friendly in that game a large majority of the time.

In League, I don't want it. Otherwise I will be getting an earful of rage, go kill yourselves, get cancer and die, this poppy is so bad, why didn't you save me, etc.

And I'm sure some rioter has a list of crazy, toxic, and ignorant shit that has been typed in the game so far.

because this community is a bunch of babies and they kill themselves when they feel offended by voice chat.

They talk about it quickly as still being an option in here.

It isn't off the table so far as I know.

I thought Riot said it's not a matter of IF it's coming, but when?

People are too worried about toxicity.

I think there would be flaws but ways to fix them.

Make voice chat reports for Earrape, hate Speech, Offensive Language, ect. If you get 1 or 2 reports (Obviously they would have to be looked over and confirmed) you get some sort of voice chat ban. It should be very fragile so people can't just ruin such a helpful part of the game. Also, make the mute button REALLY big so people don't forget about it.

i really dont know... there is a simple solution

make it work identical to discord...

you need to be able to control volume mute specific other players.. mute yourself to specific other players

and no one should be put in the voice chat unless they CHOOSE to join it... but it should be an option from in-game and in champ select.
