    The VOIP issue is the same problem I had with the 'Global Escalation' mod for Squad. It was so awesome to finally be able to hear enemies talk, but you could often see the red nicknames appear way before you could even hear them, which gave them away so many times for me. I heard people say to only talk on squad chat, and not proximity, so that the enemies couldn't hear you, and it sucked. They did change it with the last patch and I couldn't be happier, I hope Arma Reforger does the same!

      That will never happen as this change is a direct requirement all games with VOIP must abide by if they want to publish them on SNOY's platform. If you ever wondered why PS5 is a dry wasteland when it comes to online games, that's exactly why. Easier for devs to take a financial hit by ignoring that platform than to potentially be held liable when a player says a "no-no"word in a 18+ environment.

    19:31 With how arma reforger works now, in mp, the only way to hit those flying targets is only by imagining the one in your client is afterimage while server positioning is invisible to you, so shoot little ahead. It looks hilarious when ATGM doesn't hit anything, just fly past uh-1h or cobra while heli catches on fire or explodes seemingly out of nowhere but when it does explode on hit it's only on your client, for server you missed.

      Unless they take the game off of PS and refund everyone who bought the game, it will never happen. Visible nametags are a hard requirement all multiplayer games must abide by if the devs want to publish on it. That's why PS has become so devoid of any good multiplayer games, the vast majority of devs aren't dumb enough to bend over to SNOY.

Every system with VOIP knows exactly who is speaking at any time and if they wanted to they could store that audio with a tag showing the identity of who said it. This requirement is an ignorant, bad, but perhaps good faith rule they implemented to try to reduce online bullying or harrassment (e.g. make parents more likely to buy the consoles for their kids).

    I think you illustrated your point regarding the ingame-voice changes very well. As someone who's worked on features touched by similar guidelines, I'll hazard a guess for why this is there:
    A user's voice sent to other players would likely fall under the rules of "User Generated Content". Many platforms have the rule that any User Generated Content must provide accessible means to report it for violating the game's/platform's community standards - often this takes the form of a button or hotkey that brings up a "report a player" popup, where you can simply select (or already have pre-filled out, if possible) the player name from those who's content are current presented to you (name, guild name, custom logos or emblems, etc).
    Showing the name of other users like this was probably an easy way to allow players to report those using the voice feature inappropriately, without doing more complicated things like trying to analyze the audio volume for "is there actually something _audible_ for that player to hear & report?"

      10k hours in the game and i wish i could say your comment was still relevant, but it isn't and hasn't been for quite some time. The game has performed with worse optimization with almost every update. DX12 implementation being a big example. The lighting update being another. The OG devs haven't been around for quite some time, they've changed 3-4 times over, not to mention selling out to a mobile game dev. ICO was a flop that they financially shilled to try and get people on board with, that they toned up/down multiple times until they finally lessened the hell out of it most recent update. Long time players I know had to stop playing due to induced motion sickness. They have cut access to the server browser to certain mod teams, and they have bought out others then changed them, ruining some. Every single update breaks the server browser, and it causes mod teams to have to double up on their updates when not only a major patch comes but then 1-3 hot fixes. To add, each update has brought a new major issue and several minor glitches, and certain issues took multiple major dedicated updates to finally fix, yet they would state each time it was fixed. They have broken game modes by naively adding feature and equipment sets without thinking about consequences and matchmaking (destruction) and they have broken the TC mode multiple times. It took a mod team to fix destruction, yet so many OG players are gone that the game mode is not ran by server teams because it kills the server when there are so few SL's to teach their squads. I don't get enough characters to tell you all the reasons why your opinion is wrong. Neither the dev teams nor the games are comparable beyond base attributes.
