If you want to make a cooperative and competitive game. You should allow public chat. How can I coordinate with other people on my team for crucible or strikes without being able to talk? You say it's a team based game, but it can't be team based without being able to talk to comrades. Not everyone has 6 people at a time to play crucible with. So how can we coordinate without being able to talk to our team? If you want to improve your game, get back to the basics plz. Even halo 2 on original xbox you could talk to people...
