Great Idea for Communication on the Battlefield


(Beatpirate) #1

hello everyone

I have talked the the staff at GC 2007 in Leipzig Germany an I have a suggestion for the Communication on the Battlefield
I have played the DEMO with 15 other players on the activion Stand
and i have noticed the following

  1. I´m inside a tank and i call a request for a gunner. This message goes into the general Team Chat, but nobody has noticed this message. Only Bots !!
    My idea is this:
    Every Tank has a communication range for special messages. If i want a gunner or other players, than i call it over the menu, but this message goes only to players in my team in range of 100meters.

Comments please !!!

The other thing i have noticed is, that when i shoot with a rocket on the tank. I hit the Tank only in the Middle. I see no damage zones !! Why not…
At the Buggy i can shoot tires. Why not a the tank.

Sounds similar to Halo 2’s global proximity voice (other games probably did it as well). Only people within a certain area could hear global voice chats… that was with a mic though and not vsays. I don’t think it would be too hard to implement as you more or less get the same effect when you throw a grenade, only players around near by hear you shout “grenade!”.
