The setting for removing your voice from other peoples' recording is still there as it relates to game recordings or streaming; there is a separate moderation only feature where all voice chat is recorded in a rolling five minute period that can be used to send reports to Sony.

Going by this thread I'm sure there'll be a thriving community dedicated to hacking out their DualSense mics for :tinfoil:

There's likely not many IRL or goon or whatever friends for all of your games. If you want to play multiplayer you're likely to have to do so with randoms, especially on console.

What's the best-case scenario here? They were using this as a soft launch for the new party system to see how people liked it and they have a more traditional version ready or close to ready? Otherwise they're either rushing to make last-minute changes or the PS5 comes out with an IOU

I'm pretty sure if this is a major concern that someone will start selling a little dongle you can plug into the bottom of the DualSense that thinks it's a mic and switches to it but doesn't actually capture anything. Annoying that it's needed at all, but I think you can avoid going to the extreme of opening 'er up.

They don't have to make changes to the party system before launch, probably expect meaningful changes to that in the first year after they have more feedback.

I dunno, with the DS4 track record of people opening them up to disable features in hope of extending battery life...anything's possible!

Best five bucks I've ever spend.
I remember playing on private goon servers and having good fun way back in 2004 or so when private servers were much more of a thing. Private servers have almost entirely died off for popular releases, with most new games using match-making instead. Gamespy (the software) and All Seeing Eye are relics of the past. Playing with goons is more of a hassle then it used to be, and it's also on a much smaller scale. We are filling up 64 player Battlefield servers or 32 player CS servers with dumb custom maps anymore, as far as I can tell.

Because you want to play the videogame you bought. Playing with random goons isn't much better.

I assumed for the longest time that they were just going to do an Elite DualSense with all the bells and whistles, but it doesn't look like that's happening any time soon.

When you reach a certain age, your friends start having kids and stuff and then they are not available anymore to play games with you.

cursed age. more likely they are desperate to play games with you because they've been quarantined for 7 straight months with a newborn, a 2 year old, and 3 cats

Absolute clown.
The inbuilt mic on the DualSense is actually great because wearing a headset is the worst loving part of playing with people. At least I managed to convert my boyfriend to just calling through Telegram and putting it on a speaker.

I’m usually a fan on Beanposting but spending multiple pages dunking on people who don’t have friends and would like some modicum of social interaction via gaming in this hellworld seems unusually mean-spirited and cold-hearted for someone whose spent the last year getting gassed by cops every night trying to fight for their community.
