Update 4.0, the big update of Battlefield 2042He lives. It brings over 400 bug fixes and gameplay tweaks. It also includes new features that fans have been hoping for since its release in November last year.
The biggest feature is the in-game voice chat, or VoIP function, as it’s officially called. It is now possible to speak to the players in your party or Battlefield 2042 team through a microphone. Voice chat was previously absent from the game, forcing players to use text chat or ping the map. If you want to communicate with your teammates through a microphone, this requires Discord, TeamSpeak, or any other third-party platform. Creating a PlayStation or Xbox party was also a solution (temporary or not).
The new voice chat system looks very similar to previous Battlefield games. To activate and customize your voice chat, go to Options > Voice/Audio > Chat from the main menu.
The absence of voice chat in Battlefield 2042 has been a major sticking point for fans of the game. In previous Battlefield releases, the feature was a vital part, as it allowed players to coordinate attacks and discuss tactics with their teammates. The feature is almost always present in most modern multiplayer shooting games. As a result, many were surprised that he was not in the game upon release.
