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!

Or at least get the dialog voiced by R. Lee Ermey.
