vsays don't work when dead and gibbed

(MrFunkyFunk) #21

Bump, last time I heard it was disabled for “gameplay immersion”.
We don’t want immersion, when I’m dead I still want to be able to do the stuff Mustang mentionned.

Who the heck would say this?

It stopped working when the vsay menu was overhauled a while back (changed to an expandable list), so I presumed this was an accidental consequence of the new code, rather than a deliberate regression.

SD guys on TS, months ago. I kept whining about it because I thought it was a bug too.
Basicly you’re dead so there’s no reason to be able to speak through v-says.

Except you’re not dead when you are just incapped, and at the very least you should be able to call for a medic, even from a “gameplay immersion” point of view.

It would also be funny to have taunt-style V-says specifically for when you are incapped:

“Is that the best you got?”

“Bah, it’s just a flesh wound…”

etc…

With the incap animations now in-game (from what I’ve seen yesterday) it makes even more sense indeed.

lol, is it really dating from that far back?
I didn’t remember it was so long ago they stopped working, I used to spam the hell out of them the first months I played.

Just as Anti-pay-to-win :slight_smile:

Agreed, this is a pretty annoying bug :(.

(RasteRayzeR) #29

Not sure if bug or feature… But I’d like to be able to insult the medic standing 2 feet away from me who leaves me on the ground please :slight_smile:

So this got half fixed, they work whilst incapped, but not gibbed.
