Turn off battle chatter ability by WebAdmin

[Mike_Nomad]

My concern is that if we provide an option (client or server) to turn it off, you will have a dead silent battlefield. So I think a solution/improvement rather than a simple removal of the feature should be considered.

Oh My, that's an exaggerated example. If you don't hear the explosions, shooting and ambient combat sounds, then that's sad. I use my directional sound system to help detect where the enemy is by where the sound of the shot(s) come from and by staying alert watching for movement.

I meant silent regarding human voices, I thought that was obvious

It wasn't.

Don't worry, it was perfectly obvious by context.

And it's largely why I'm in favor of keeping the current system, although some tweaks could be good. The simplest one I can think of is to add a simple LoS check onto the existing range-check for calling out to buddies.
