What are Degrade Zones?

Degradation zones are areas like tunnels, underground areas, or mountain valleys that would experience signal loss in a realistic scenario. Custom voice effects will distort the audio more as signal loss increases.

Open the menu with the in-game /radiomenu command and select Degradation Zones
