Silenced players SHOULD NOT be allowed to use voice chat.

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 12:48 PM PST

So I log into the new patch just now to queue a qm and low and behold "would you like to join voice chat" pops up - I didn't read patch notes so didn't realize the feature was in already..

Great I think anyways, join.

Immediately following the opening qm mid lane brawl where 2 team mates die the silenced played spam pings lanes and then throws hate in voice chat...

Why can you be silenced in game but allowed to speak in voice comms?

Oversight? God I hope so....

Voice chat is so damn good.

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 02:44 PM PST

I have played 8 games today and won 5. In all of these games, nobody flamed. Everyone was in voice chat. It makes the game so much more fun to crack jokes and coordinate verbally! I believe the level of skill in this game will go through the roof. Thanks Blizzard for incorporating this finally, ever since I tried it at Blizzcon.

So far voice chat has done the opposite of what some feared

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 02:06 PM PST

There were many concerns about voice chat adding toxicity to the game but so far I have experienced far, far less. In games were normally people would be toxic they instead are just silent in chat. It is much harder to be mean to someone if you are talking to each other with voices as opposed to using a near anonymous text chat. Text chat always looks the same, always the same font,
always the easy access to start flaming. But with voice chat it's the person's voice, not the text flaming the other person, which is much harder for people to do, resulting in low voice chat toxicity.

Voice chat also seems to reduce text chat toxicity. Hearing the other person's voice reminds people that they are playing with other humans.

TL;DR: It is much harder for people to be toxic to others if they hear the other person's voice; not impossible, but much less likely to happen

Rehgar's 13 talent no longer scales with level

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 01:58 PM PST

Rehgar's 13 talent, Earthliving Enchant, no longer scales/increases healing over time per level.

I don't see this change documented anywhere, and heroes wiki still says +4% per level.

I was playing brawl as rehgar, and having that talent is pretty good. But it's healing numbers were stuck at 40/sec and I don't remember it being that way. (I remember it was 333 at level 13, or something around that; big boost).

level 1 and level 30 talent description, respectively

level 13 and level 30 heal over time, respectively

73 Minutes of Chromie Brawl with AI.

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 03:18 PM PST

After waiting awhile for a brawl the matchmaker decided it had been too long so it threw me and another guy with 4 ai Chromies. What ensued was 73 minutes of me trying to take out the human factor and push the lanes. Eventually the other human player decided enough was enough and let me end. Thank you random guy for ending our hell because I'm too stubborn to let you have it. https://imgur.com/a/ElWBJ

Permanent ARAM?

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 09:59 AM PST

Anybody else think we need. Permanent ARAM game available?

Personally, I have played the sands of time brawl about as much as all the other brawls in the last few months added together, and it would be AWESOME to be able to do this year-round.

more of the 7 evils from Diablo?

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 08:51 AM PST

Hey Blizzard, I would like if is possible, for the next hero of Diablo to be one of the 7 evils, like Mephisto or Baal. Diablo 2 is my childhood (pretty dark for a kid, but whatever) and since the alpha I been here waiting for them. I didn't give up on the day I could play as one of those creepy bosses. Please Blizzard, if you aren't working in a Diablo hero right now or you don't know what character from Diablo you should add next, add one of the 7 evils from Diablo, last one was Azmodan and it was in 2014! almost 4 years ago! please!

Amazing draft experience with in-game voice chat

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 03:38 PM PST

Me and my friend decided to try out voice chat in unranked draft to test out our settings and the potential game quality. We had another party join us during the draft and had an amazing experience with strangers. We all talked about drafts and bans before they happened and were on par with the macro/lane phase of early game. We eventually turned it into a stomp and nobody on the team died the entire game. I was skeptical of the in-game voice chat about trolls or immature players, but I was 100% sold after the quality of one game with strangers. /kudos blizzard

Voice Comms is the real PBMM for team players

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 05:47 PM PST

Shotcalling and following the team is so important in this game and being on the same page is critical, much more than games like Overwatch. Voice chat will allow the real decision makers and team players to shine and rise to ranks much faster than before.

Blizzard, huge props to you in putting this out. I feel like we've needed this since launch but better late than never. Here's to great games and great teamwork.

Hero Specific Loot Chests need to be more rewarding

Posted: 20 Feb 2018 09:52 PM PST

For the past few weeks I've been trying to get a lot of my heroes to at least level ten, some to 20. But I'm so tired of getting a duplicate voiceline or spray as a reward when I get that hero loot chest. Even when I spend coins to reroll, the best I can get is a rare skin majority of the time. I think hero loot chest need to have a guarantee high rarity drop to reward that 10 level increase milestone.

EU server lagging yet again

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 11:26 AM PST

What if stitches could gorge allies to save them?

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 08:12 AM PST

I just had that thought and I think it'd be really cool... maybe not viable but really cool.

Edit: After further thought, it would make stitches strongly overpowered.

Skin Suggestion: Corporate Butcher

Posted: 21 Feb 2018 01:35 PM PST

He just wants to "meet" all the time.

Briefcase instead of cleaver.

Butcher "Brand" is already in theme.
