In response to a Battlefield player requesting the ability to mute unruly individuals, producer Jaqub Ajmal revealed that DICE has gone above and beyond with a filter that will censor all profanity in the PC version of the game. While many say a global filter is excessive, Ajmal insists it is necessary: “Players are supposed to treat each other with respect in the chat.” Details on the open beta, available to the public on September 6, may be found at the official site.
Jaqub Ajmal, replying to a player over Twitter, said Thursday that a profanity filter was coming to PC; console users will still have to report abusive player behavior to PlayStation Network or Xbox Live. The player in the conversation had actually asked for the means of muting individual players instead of the entire chat; it’s not clear if that feature is being implemented, but some means of silencing beligerent players will be available on PC.
