It’s fun as a pickup with randos or playing with friends. As long as people try to talk that is

That's about what I figured. I'm not that great with strangers, and English is my second language. I've tried other squad based games that rely on voice comms to be enjoyable, and I only really enjoy them when playing with a group of people I'm comfortable with.

You would be surprised how much you can communicate by just pinging stuff. I've had many missions with randos where a single word wasn't spoken, but we were all actively pinging high priority targets and putting markers on the map for our intentions.
