    Disabling All Chat in Ranked

    Over the course of the past few weeks, I have become more aware of the many throwers in ranked. I have reported multiple but it seems Ubi doesn't prioritize this issue. This is so frustrating because I care about the MMR I earn and I do not enjoy losing a game because of a thrower. I think that ALL chat in ranked should be disabled because one of the main reasons I've lost is throwers giving callouts of where my teammates and I are. I would just like to see what the R6 community would agree/disagree with this.

    Not sure how they'd address that. I've wondered how many people are doing this or something like it. Using the chat to reveal where their 'team-mates' are hiding, so the enemy team can eliminate them easily. In-team communication is critical for honest players of course, and it doesn't sound exactly fair to remove that. Once again, it seems rules only stop honest people.

    I usually just quickly mute the enemy team. They're not going to add anything but toxicity anyways.

    With Void Edge, we changed it so All Chat is disabled by default due to the amount of toxicity in the game. Players have to go out of their way to turn it back on, which I don't think many are doing. I personally haven't turned All Chat back on and have been enjoying the game more. So technically the option already exists, but players have the option to turn it on for themselves.
    Don't forget to report those players for griefing as well for calling out teammate locations to the enemy team.

    I completely understand that I just thought It would be better for the community if it was disabled. It would only be All chat, not Team. Anyways, thank you guys for your time.

    There really is no purpose for the all chat other than banter and ****-talking. I disabled it because there is no real value in it and I'm not missing out on anything that could potentially change the game
