Bf3 and VOIP

[[RIP]THOMO]

I heard a rumour the other day in another forum that voip will have a drastic revamp which will include proximity viop where even though your in one team you can talk to another close by to co ordinate ..

Personally i think its a cool idea and would be great whats everyones else opinion...

[Warre353]

It COULD be cool but think about f.ex. Karkand like city map with 50 team mates when 80% of them are stuffed in a small area and yelling warnings/instructions/taunts/whatever at the same time. And 70% out of the 80% are high-pitched teenagers...AAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

If what you tell will be true then I hope there's a way to mute all but squad mates. I'd become insane.

Or people that just talk plain crap and know that everyone can hear em :P

*shudders*

[Blud]

Teamspeak,Ventrilo or whatever. But keep the voice traffic off the game play servers bandwidth.

If I wanted something like that I would play XboxLive...

I use TS when I play so I can communicate with my clanmates. We use a closed server for our TS due to the kids who would get on and, yes, scream in their supersonic tones. Especially German kids... geez, when do they actually grow testicles over there?

lol yelling stuff like: ENEMY SUBMARINE SPOTTED!! on karkand map xDXDXDXD

[GNR_Rosewarne]

LOL :P

I was pretty prolific at that if my teammates were crap.

software such as Mumble feature positional audio, and has evidently been integrated with BF2- so its definately possible and the obvious next step.

Heck, they arent gonna put any effort in to the new models, so we might as well get something.
