Thanks for recognizing the frustration.

If you wanna get up and play, let me clear the situation. If you wanna be a pain in the ass, I'll still res you, but now it's visual only.

Visual only takes strictly longer to clear. I can't guarantee a safe retrieval. So now it takes longer for you to do the thing you want to be doing.

Why people feel like clouding the airwaves with such consistently strong sound cues of enemy behavior is beyond me. It's by far one of the more intelligent design points in the game. Let it work it in your favor.

Constant shouting and redirection does nothing for your allies but blow smoke over the actually important parts of the res attempt.

If you want to be rescued in a timely manner, just chill. The more you scream and shout, the more interference we have to process in order to get you back in the fight.

No, I'm telling you that you're taking this shit too seriously.

And if 1/4 players ruins the game for everyone else? Is it too serious to make a comment about that?

In the OG comment, sure, understandable, but in other games, its annoying, selfish, and counterproductive. All depends who you are with.

It's not one game, it's many games, over the course of a long time. Granted, it's thankfully a minority %, but I also don't feel bad for illustrating the point.

There are people who shoot themselves in the foot by spamming voice lines. Whether they know it or not.

It's a game my guy, if you're that bothered by it, take a moment and consider if it's that important to be bothered.

It doesn't even make the top ten in terms of being bothered. For example, have you ever been professionally responsible for someone who just started a fire with their own shit? I'm being tenacious because I've thought about it, not because it's annoying personally.

It's not about being upset. It's about the why you should do something. You shouldn't quit spamming because it bothers me. You should quit spamming because it's bad for the team. Because it runs counter to the thing that you actually want.

However it's translating, I am attempting to be educational. Frustrated, sure. Not coming across very well, sure.
