Crossplay and party/voice chat
So with crossplay being confirmed this bring up the question of voice/party chat being in the game. Devs said before they didnt want voice chat because of immersion or something like that but with crossplay becoming a thing I wonder if they're going to go back on that statement.
So what I'm guessing is that they're either going to add voice chat into the game and you can disable it/mute people if you'd like or they're going to add it in only specifically for people playing in groups/custom games. What is everyone's thoughts on it?

Oh no survivors won't be able to use communication in some games, the tragedy.

Using discord via separate device is actually pretty common among switch users. Switch doesnt have a built in chat at all, so... ppl make due.

Time to plug earbuds into my phone and stick them into my headphones to communicate.

Im a high rank killer and im fine with in game chat for survivors. You can REALLY tell the difference between a team using chat and a random team. Its extremely easy to beat a random team, and when they're talking is the only time they have a chance to all escape. If they're worried about immersion that would be a good chance for a proximity chat, even if it has a long distance to it. Especially if it went to killer too. You could eavesdrop on survivors making plans and then scare the crap out of them when you pop around the corner with undetectable saying "good plan" while revving a chainsaw. Adds a whole new level of psychological warfare. Just as long as the community doesn't turn toxic. I could see an in game proximity chat being very fun and balanced, especially if they added perks that increase chat range or make it where the killer can't hear you. Just my 2 cents on the subject. As an indie game developer myself, I would love to play around with the balancing of that feature.

If devs never mentioned an intent to go back and finally add ingame voice chat - it wont happen.
