I noticed quite a bit of people not knowing you can opt out of the dead voice chat recording (where it transmits your mic audio when you die for a couple of seconds).

When I installed the game there was a prompt that asked for an opt-in, that was pretty short to read.

Do you think people automatically click "I consent" or is the prompt not very clear?

There is very clearly a message upon install that tells you about the feature and that you can turn it off in the future. Cant be more clear than that. But yes i think most people just consent to every form they see starting up a game because its usually just EULA garbage

The death chat was part of what drew me to the game in the first place. It's like playing an old school FPS from the early days of console gaming online

Not critizing the feature, I use PTT on local voice chat when I die. I'm mostly wondering about ppl that didn't know about this being enabled, and I remember the prompt being relatively short and clear.

For example, JackFrags didn't know that in his video

Ah I see now, I misunderstood the questions as being "if you use death chat, why?"

I choose to use my ptt when I die instead of open mic

I did, I didn't read it much. But I disabled it once I realised what it meant.
