I wonder if banrates be affected as less people use chat in favor of raging in voice chat.

May be harder to verify the false flag reports without chat logs

Voice chat isn't "upcomming", it's just something they're investigating implementing in the future.

You know companies have all your voice chats in game recorded right? CoD Smite, all of them have recordings, they don't keep them forever, but they do keep them for a while...

I wouldnt be surprised. People already believe reporting doesnt matter, and are still toxic. Once this comes out i think everyone knows people will be toxic then get ban and claim they did nothing wrong. I mean i want to know how exactly they are going to show people they were toxic in voice chat. Audio files can be pretty big, especially the longer the game goes, or how much said person is talking.

well i would be in favor of voice chat if they were to ever implement it, but there will be the problem that has effect many other games and that are the trolls just never shutting up or just doing weird vocal noises.

as far as bans go even though there will not be chat logs i assume each games vocal chatting will be recorded for better judgements in the furture of reporting. just because people think reporting someone does nothing, doesnt mean it is nothing, i have had great success with the current report system, maybe its all about how the description is worded which makes an outcome happen more often.

either way i would think voice chat would make it easier to verify false reports since again i assume the voice chats would be recorded for legal purposes.
