"The Dead Cannot Speak"

[BlaxicanX]

Why? You can speak as much as you want to your allies via voice chat when you're dead. What's with this seemingly completely arbitrary decision that if you're dead you can't type in the chat?

It bothered me when I first jumped into this game, and I forget about it every now and then until I get killed by something and type a detailed warning to my mates only to get that stupid "dead cannot speak... unless you're using voice-chat hurr" message.

I mean, it's not a huge deal, but, type-chat is already irrelevant enough as it is... you know?

Yea, I know exactly what you mean.

Agreed that it isn't game breaking but more so a hugh nuisance when the time comes to yell out a warning but...you're dead. Bleh.

Aye it is a weird nuisance.. its like the guy who designed it played CS as a kid/younger man and thought it was a good idea but then completely forgot theres voice chat and you can actually talk in platoon and some other chats anyway while dead so its entirely pointless.

What's funny is when you're dead is the best time to chime into the BS conversations going on in yell... and yet you can't.

Hmm...I guess you would know. You stay dead more than alive on the battlefield.

It's probably to prevent some hate tells.
