What sadistic, self-depricating, former drill instructor is in charge of the script for Crucible and SRL commentary?
When someone trash talks you in real life you can make them eat their words, or at least a knuckle sandwich. When an NPC trash talks you, there is NOTHING that can be done to shut the foul-mouthed jerk up. In Destiny, there is no way to shoot Shax in his prideful ugly little face... yet (great idea for a DLC by the way). I used to like Amanda Holiday's character. Now, I want to rip out her tongue. I was under the misguided impression that our Ghosts were supposed to be endearing companions. Now, I NEVER want to hear my Ghost speak again!
I place rather well in SRL unless I am stopping at the end to allow a chance for others to complete bounties or quests. Hearing Holiday and my Ghost taking turns commenting every time I transition in or out of 1st place quickly becomes inane babble. The problem is compounded by SRL being a grind-based event.
A self-destructive need for derogatory comments is not the reason I play video games! Negative commentary does not spur me on to do better. It only serves to produce RAGE directed toward Bungie, their script writers, the voice actors, and the fictitious characters. Unfortunately, I have no way to TO MUTE OR KILL THE NPCs!
PLEASE CREATE A MUTE OPTION FOR ANOUNCERS IN PVP! This would not break the game, so there is no reason to deny the option. I fully believe that you would see an increase in PVP activity, and being that all of the weapon adjustments seem to be focused on PVP, that is what you care about anyway. Anyone who is opposed to having the OPTION to mute the announcers is obviously a communist that beleives that the establishment is smarter and better at making their personal decisions for them, than they are themselves.
PLEASE CREATE A MUTE OPTION FOR ANNOUNCERS!

Perhaps you should do a little introspection as to why the words from a fictional character in a video game incites that amount of rage within you in the first place.
-
The announcers only turn negative if you are losing you know right? So stop losing and they turn much more happy. Then again I am welsh, it is normal for my friend to tell me I am doing a shite job and we do have a laugh about it, so this may be different cultures speaking now

You folks have obviously never dealt with a real life drill instructor :-)

Edited by Verdant Fatalis: 12/29/2015 4:45:30 AMcompletely agree. i get sick of "gotta hold those zones guardian" when we lost a control match by 50pts or "i thought the point of this was to go fast?" if i'm not directly ahead of everyone else by 50 meters.
-
Lol yes. They are still sometimes late announcing. You in the lead, and my team is like 500 points down XD

Edited by iDovahBear: 12/29/2015 6:25:51 AMAGREED! Also, SRL is a complete waste of Destiny's resources! It feels like any other generic arcade racer. And I myself haven't ever found the need to trifle with those games. If Destiny wants to waste good man hours producing this content only to yank it away briefly afterwards, then what is the point anyways? They wanted a quick excuse to overhype 'new Sparrows' on the Eververse Store. That's it. If they couldn't fit in a way to make Eververse exploit the damned event, they would've never made Sparrow Racing for any of us! It was a convenient thing to ask for, so they finally did it. Doesn't mean they're doing it for us, they're doing it barebones because it's just a quick money grab.

This is why...
-
IF I HEAR SHAXX SAY "GUARDIAN YOU'RE THE LAST ALIVE" ONE MORE TIME, I'M GONNA...
-
"Do you like it better when Lord Saladin oversees these matches? Do I look like I care? Get back in there!" - Shaxx
-
You have heard of people who "rage quit." I make it a point not to. Why intentionally inject a RAGE mechanism to go above and beyond the call of duty in your game?

Edited by Mrs_Nightglo: 12/28/2015 6:37:59 AMYou're soooooooooo right. Bungie CREATE A MUTE OPTION! Too bad Destiny is the only FPS that we can play together right now.
