Make it so using in game chat generates "noise" the zeds can hear

[doughphunghus]

I don't know if people use the in game chat (vs discord) but if you do, make it so the volume of talking generates noise the zeds can "hear".  so if you "whisper" its like stepping on trash, but if you talk normally its more like gunfire.  Basically if you wanted to use in game chat for more "realism" (as you can hear people only when close) then when you're going through a POI together talking loud gets zeds going.  or for single player, you can *literally* talk into your mic and wake up zeds.

also: if you're huddling in the dark in an early game and will die if zeds attack, you have to be quiet (literally) or whisper and hope its not too loud

I would use this in single player. One of the tactics for melee builds i follow is to walk into the door, hit the wall to wake up the sleepers, then fight them in the doorway. Being able to "shout" into a room to wake it up would be fun.
