Character Voice Commands
How amazing and hilarious would it be if all killers and survivors had audio catchphrases that you can play in game using the D-Pad.
Some example: Survivors
- Killer Alert (Run, dude, Run!)
- Killer Alert (Watch your back!)
- Killer Taunt (Eat my dust!)
- Killer Taunt (Polo (in response to a Killer using 'Marco'))
- Team Command (Go for the rescue)
- Team Command (Stay on this gen)
some examples: Killer
- Survivor Taunt (Marco)
- Survivor Taunt (You can't hide forever)
- Survivor Taunt (You can't run forever)
- Survivor Taunt (Hysterical Laughter)

This would not fit the game in any way.
The Survivors don't have voice lines because the last thing they want is for the Killer to hear them.
The Killer does not speak because, most of the time, they are basically feral beasts driven by their rage/need to kill & the Entity.

Of course it would fit, it's just your opinion you don't think it would.
Ash has voice lines along with other survivors already. If a survivor used a voice command whilst a killer was nearby and they heard, it would be their own fault for using it. Just because they're there doesn't mean they need to be used at all times.
50% of the killers do/can speak... Plague, Ghostface, Clown, Pig, Freddy, Doctor, Huntress, Spirit...

To be honest I prefer it when no one is speaking, fits the atmosphere of the game. I wouldn't mind voice lines when you stun the killer or saving/healing a team mate. Or maybe just voices in the lobby just like Ash. But being able to use Voice lines yourself would just lead to people spamming them therefore ruining the flow of the game

And it's your opinion that it would fit.
Ash is the only Survivor who speaks because, well, he's Ash. He never shuts up. And even he does not say anything during a match.
The game is supposed to be tense and scary. A Survivor yelling 'Eat my dust!' is goofy and silly. The Survivors are TERRIFIED of the Killers. They want to hide and stay silent.
And Plague is the only Killer who speaks, as far as I'm aware. The clown laughs. ..And no one else says a word. They make sounds; grunts, growls, chuckles, heavy breathing..None of them say coherent words.
Again; this would run the polar opposite to the atmosphere of the game. The Killers make noise because they don't care if they are seen; they are the HUNTER.
Survivors try to whimper and cry as quietly as possible to stay HIDDEN.
This is why they have mute emotes; so they can't be heard by the big thing that wants to put them on a meat hook.

Yeah that's a fair point, you'd get toxic teammates on the odd occasion trying to give your position away.
I thought of the idea after watching this, it just cracks me up..

I disagree with your argument about it ruining the atmosphere of the game, the cosmetics have already done that. DBD is not longer tense or scary and hasn't been for years.
The killers I mentioned DO speak in their lore / origins. They're not all 'feral beasts'.
I agree my examples are goofy, I was providing a variety of phrases to give an example of what could be done.

...Their lore/origins are before they got taken by the Entity. NONE, save for Plague, speak IN GAME. They have been driven beyond their humanity, and no longer need too/can speak.

Dude, you're missing the point, I give up.

No, I'm not.
The point is that making people speak/taunt/whatever would ruin what little atmosphere the game has.
Plus, it's out of character for 90% of the Killer roster and 99% of the Survivors.
Just because I don't agree does not mean I'm missing your point. This is not some amazing idea that the whole player base would agree on if they just understood your view.
It's a bad idea. Again; it does not fit anyone. Hell, the Plague only speaks in her Mori, IIRC. If you don't count the lobby screen. And the lobby screen is where Ash speaks. The ONLY place where Ash speaks.
I don't consider the backstory a reason for people to speak because EVERYONE was talking in their backstory. Because they were human! Interacting with other humans! They don't speak in game because they are trying to hide! Or they no longer have enough humanity left to BOTHER speaking.
See? I get it just fine. YOU don't seem to get what the game is about; oppression and fear. Being unable to speak because the Killer might hear you!

What? Because I disagree, I'm immature? Because I gave sound logic as to why I disagree, I'm immature?
Sounds like I'm not the one who needs to grow up.

Since OP attacks and insults people with a different opinion, there's no point to keep this thread open.
