Voice activation on teamspeak was much more reasonable and accurate. Discord's is always either trigger happy or drops quiet speech.
Also voice activation is a boon for competitive games where you can't spare a hotkey and finger during play.

I don't think they hit anyone, but they did unplug the foot pedals from their PC the moment they got home.
Worked great!
I've been playing competitive games for 15 years. I think you're overstating how difficult it is to press one other button. It's also contradictory to the common practice of clans/scrim groups having a PTT policy.
I think people saying "Well X does it better." are missing the point. It's always been a problem. Ventrilo, Mumble, Teamspeak, etc. If you've never considered it a problem there is a good possibility a lot of people around you were just tolerating it.
Why? That's just a bald assertion with a butt load of evidence to the contrary.
>and what's "competitive" level for you
I'm pretty serious about competitive play. Started with CS 1.6, moved to SC2, then RB6:Siege, then GO, and now OW. I've consistently ranked in the top tier in each of those games. I moved my gym time to my lunch break and run when I wake up so I can play games in the evening and scrim when I'm on teams. It's an addiction.
>PTT is shooting yourself into the foot just because you can't find not-infantile teamplayers
I like how instead of addressing the technological merits of voice activation you just call people "infantile" to avoid actually discussing the subject.
