Toxicity Is The Problem, And There Isn't A "Solution" Just Yet
, game director Joe Ziegler explained just why the p⛄opular communicꦐation feature won't be making the cut for its next release.
"When it comes to prox chat, I don't think we're against the experience of it, to be fair,"🦩 he said. "I think the challenge is how to make sure we're creating a safe environment for players inside of that space."

As a feature, proximity chat is somewhat of a double-edged sword. It allows players to expe𝄹rience a more realistic communication method and helps create unforgettable experiences.𓄧 On the other end, players are at the mercy of hearing what they are in "proximity" to, which can create unsavory situations with toxic communication.
"I don't think anyone really has a good solution to that just yet," Ziegler added. "Because we're so dedicated t🍬o making sure that we're creating a safe space where we don't have players just flaming each other or doing terrible things to one another, I think we're not ready to invest in prox chatꦯ until we have a solution."
As it stands, it remains to be seen what the solution could be. Obviously, , and punishment has been levied against 🥂bad actors ꧃in the past. But short of some high-tech auto filter that immediately boots bad actors, it seems like should the fea🐬tuℱre ever make it into the game, it'll be on players to police themselves and behave accordingly.
"L🍸ike, if it was magical, and we could somehow come up with that solution, I think we totally would do it," Ziegler said👍. Good luck.
