Useless voicechat, V 1 2, should be replaced

V 1 2
which is: vsay_team “enemyweakened”

I dunno, but from playing vanilla or ET, V12 is NEVER used. why? cuz V53 exists already (which is the global version). and ppl only use the “enemy is weakened” voice chat usually for taunting the other team. (like when you just panzered 4 ppl with one shot, or you cleared a room full of enemeies single handedly). v53’s are usually followed up with v57’s from my observations in vanilla and ET.

the only ppl who use v12’s, are ppl who don’t know that v53 exists. I’m sure all of us who have played vanilla found it sooooooo annoying when someone on your team is spamming v12 and thinking everyone can hear it, but only your team is hearing it.

so my suggestions to what it should be replaced with. the one vsay everyone has been complaing about being missing.
vsay_team “onmyway”

on a side note: i think another voice chat that should be added is some voice that that says “Repair the MG42!” or “Repair the machine gun nest” or something to that degree. cuz sure, you can say “we need an engineer” at location K,4. but what the hell does that mean? you need him to diffuse a mine? need him to repair the busted mg42? repair the vehicle? he doesn’t know.

Actually, I have seen the team chat “enemy is weakened” used to inform teammates that some defense position has been cleared. Unless you know the player saying it though, it does appear as nothing more than a taunt.

As for more specific engineer requests, I suppose it would not hurt. But I don’t know if its really necessary either. Just follow your engie request with a specific directive: e.g. “We need an engineer” “engie - fix the MG over bunker”

Agreed.

The “Objective” ones need overhauling.

“Reinforce the defence???”

What I would like to see (in fireteam mode, or just team mode) is more “team direction” commands, such as:

  1. You Go Left
  2. I’ll Go Left
  3. You Go Right
  4. I’ll Go right
  5. Flank them from the north/south/east/west
  6. Setup ambush here
  7. Watch your 6!
    etc…
    etc…

i.e. commands which are “squad-related” in nature; useful for organizing your fireteam.

they could add “onmyway” to the “Talk” Group (Number 4), there is some space there. We just want to be able to use it. I would be happy if we could just be able to bind it to a key.

I’ve always wanted a ‘retreat’ vsay…

Z8 I believe, or Z6, anyway, “fall back” is a fireteam command so it should be avaliable for teamsay aswell.
