Payday 2 arrives on the Switch next week, nearly five years after its initial release on PC. A lot of questions have already been raised about how it will be missing a large chunk of the additional content that has come out since 2013, but a bigger head-scratcher remains the lack of proper voice chat.
Payday 2 is a heist game. The whole point is to expertly orchestrate and execute actions like bank break-ins and the safe transportation of drug shipments, all of which require close coordination with other players. On PC, PS4, and Xbox One, this is easy to pull off through built-in voice chat or third-party programs like Discord. Players encountering the game for the first time on Nintendo’s Switch, however, will be in for a rough ride, because it doesn’t have voice chat.
The company has created a workaround for this issue with its Nintendo Online app, a program you can download to your phone and run in conjunction with Splatoon 2 in order to talk to other players using a ridiculous, but still mostly functional, setup. As of now, however, no other game on the system can use this app. Nintendo says as much on the app’s FAQ section on the website. Seven months after Nintendo Online was introduced, it still only supports one game.
