Option to ignore spec chat
« on: July 30, 2011, 09:45:53 pm »
The sound that is made every time someone doesn't use teamchat gets really annoying if you have spectators talking up a storm.
I can easily not view it with a quick click, but I can't mute the sound that I continually get.
Why not make it so the sound can be muted?

this is a good suggestion.  expanding on it, it would be nice to be able to disable sounds for teamchat, global chat, and chat from spectators.  meaning, a seperate option/switch for each.

I think you should never be able to ignore team chat entirely.
No sound maybe, but never no text.

Makes you not hear the sound or see the messages of people not using team chat. They will, of course, still appear in console.

but a small twisty barrel will have small pew pew's, and small pew pew's can hurt mr.tyrant.

like the "Team Chats Only" option in the "Player" tab of the in-game menu?
