I cant get it, why russian players dont have voice chat?
If u say its country's problems or something like I can say you are lier, because I can play with voice communication in other regions from the same place.
Someone please can explain this?

    hokoykt There is new law in russia that forces riot to record everything in voice chat.
    1: That violates other countries people laws who doesnt want to be recorded and have the right not to be recorded without permission.
    2: Riot is not obliged to do this cuz riot isnt russian company and they can do what they want with their product.
    Thats why they just decided to close voice for russian people. Russians can only blame their laws for not beeing able to use voice chat.

      animeholywarrior You dont get it mate, I told you that I can play on other servers as russian player with voice communication, you mean our laws dont work on these servers but work on EU servers? Sounds silly. Also if u say like = go play on asians servers, I cant speak indonesian, or japanese, or chinese, whatever.

        hokoykt u r first russian player who can use voice so idk. i know if your acc is registered from russian federation ip your voice will be blocked. in any case go ask your president why your laws is like that....if it wasnt like that you shouldnt have any kind of problems like this.

          Why have Russia not got their own servers by this point? It's unplayable with the lack of communication. I understand there may be some language barriers sometimes and then the in game communication does come in handy but at this point i'm sure that the majority of people have learnt to speak basic English and therefore are able to communicate with names of places on the map. It's not even the fact that they cant speak to us because we are competent enough to check our angles its the fact the majority of the players I have come across will not and therefore need to be babysat and told where the enemy player is. I'm not angry at the Russian population, it would just be a bit more playable for all people if we are able to communicate properly.

          i just dont get it if russiasn cant use voice chat why dont they play alone you know not that i try to be rude or anything but when a player from any other country then Russia comes in a team full of russians the game is basicly lost because of no comunication so it suck for players who are better but they cant come high on ranks becaus evry second game is with russians

          Christej91 this is exactly what ive though. its not to offend the russians, i have no problem, but it is a serious problem when players are being matched with others who are not cabable of giving any info midgame while the opposing team has a full team with mics. its happened 6 times this weekend alone for me that we loose to lack of communication because 2-3 people on our team ON AVERAGE is muted due to ip. Riot seriously needs to find a solution, make a seperate region or something for russians. Its not like the russian playerbase is too small. And this is seriously a big problem that riot cannot ignore.

            HersK Yet they still do ignore it. What is even more curious, all other games are completely fine with voice chat. CS, COD, APEX and many more have no problems with voice chat for russian players. Would like to know why. We need transparency from Riot.
