Server Suggestion Transparent / hidden phone (While on teamspeak)

[H0xton]

Suggestion Title: Transparent / hidden phone (While on teamspeak)
Suggestion Description: Make is to there is an option to make your phone hidden or transparent while using teamspeak, I dont like having 25% of my field of view covered of my phone, its even worse for the ppl playing on lower res

Why should this be added?:
-QoL change that has been asked many times before

What negatives could this have?:
- I cannot think of any other than new players being confused on how did they just make their phone hidden while its still active but if this feature is only for when teamspeak is on then this wont be an issue

What problem would this suggestion solve?: It would simply make playing the server better (for people in orgs) by removing screen clutter, try playing siege or cs with a black box on the right side of your screen, some ppl might not think this is a big deal but that is because they got used to it, I did too and now when I started playing again it just feels bad

I’ll repost my opinion on it

I don’t like the idea of completely hiding the phone or limitless minimization, because using Teamspeak has always had that trade-off between gaining better comms vs having a diminished view in combat. Like a sort of stand-in sensory loss of surrounding hearing if someone irl were wearing headphones or earbuds while in combat.

So should we also add a massive black box on the screen for PD and other jobs with access to radios?

They generally do have some sort of junk on their screen like the incident alerts. Some resolutions are awful for the phone, so resizing it to some degree would be a decent alternative

you hold your phone in your hand whilst speaking in teamspeak in first and third person views as to signal to others' that you are communicating with people not in your immediate area
