Hey could yall like fix VivoxVoiceService. The game is like not the same without it; I enjoy deeply raging, crying, spamming music, and like talking my shit on the mic.
I know this post should be in Bugs and Tech Issues section, but social is missing like the best part besides the customization.

wait, there's an issue with talking in social? I never noticed, saw some people talkspamming about a week ago so didn't even know it was borked lol.

If voice goes down and nobody hears it was anyone really there?

[Clandestine]

What happened to your font? Chernobyl mutations?

I don't even bother allowing vivox to run on my pc. end task as soon as the game starts, better to waste that on more frames than useless voip that doesn't work.

If something else that can compete APB's discord, or discord for group sessions, please lmk.

Yeah, if it'd work fine, it'd be nice to have. Considering how it doesn't work and even may cause some input lag and stuttering for some people when activated, then it'd be a better idea to rather remove it completely.

[NotZombieBiscuit]

Just disable it.

This man's asking the real questions.

So you're one of those losers who hang out in social 24/7....

Honestly they should just remove Vivox and work on integrating their own in-house service. Vivox has never been good, for many more reasons than simply just having garbage performance/quality in general. Post UE4, could integrate Discord rich presence so we don't even need the extra client weight of the game's VoIP at all.

Any ideas for what they can use or do? I wouldn't know.

It would require serious dev time, and they'd likely have to flex their research muscles to learn new stuff about how VoIP services work. It'd be worth it in the long term.

Ultimately though, Discord rich presence is the true endgame.

We're aware of Vivox being down, we're looking into it.

[Kimotsi]

Imo that's the worst part about social...along with scammers

[Displ4yName]

Turning off voice chat was one of my first steps in the game.

Even better. Remove or replace it. Vivox causes some issues with mouses being way less sensitive than in settings.
