Command roles comm overload?

Post by ThePiachu » 13 May 2018, 15:21

I've tried playing in some lower command roles - RO and PO, and both times I felt rather overwhelmed with the comm chatter going on. Is there some way to filter which comm channels I receive? I somehow don't think listening to MPs doing some investigation while flying would be of much benefit...
Gaius Caelus

Often playing Researcher, Doctor, or many other ship-side roles
Amadeus the synth
Zig’Reth (The Player of Games)
Mostly droning as Xeno, OFTEN TALKING IN CAPS.

Also, I'm recording!

You can always use the simple questions topic on the forums or on the discord for these kind of things, but if you hold your radio in hand you can toggle which channels you have on/off.
I play Verena Knox, an extremely unlucky girl, among other characters.

You get used to monitoring all the channels.

I usually play as Commander, sometimes you don't see information, or when someone tries to contact you.

But you do get used to it.

Activate your command headset in your hand to filter which channels you want to hear.
