VreebieZ Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 When player type a chat, it's like his/her character says something. OfCourse this don't have to be inside the balloons, but a small text near the player's character would be very helpful. Benefit: 1. Easier to indicate 2. "Talking" Feature What do you think, folks? -vZ Link to comment
Boss Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 (edited) That's a great idea but that should go by a second button chat. You'll have to ask on the chat where's someone to meet up so you can speak privately in-game with the second chat button. Edited January 9, 2006 by Guest Link to comment
Guest Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 Good idea, but at least private messages will do it. Link to comment
VreebieZ Posted August 11, 2003 Author Share Posted August 11, 2003 Exactly.. So it'll need more button to: 1. TALK: Text displayed near character 2. BROADCAST: Current chat mode 3. PRIVATE/WHISPER: Kinda like chat mode, but for pre-set recipient. -vZ Link to comment
Guest Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 I thought about this too, it's a great idea especially if you like to do RP. Link to comment
kev/n Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 im not sure if this was mentioned but what about a voice mod.. like you could hold down mouse3 (scroll button) and use a mic to talk to people [just like in counter-strike] Link to comment

I thought of that too, but I was worried if the Audio Stream would take an extra bandwidth. But, yea.. I would like to see this feature to be implemented too! I'll give my vote! Link to comment
Twink Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 so I'm gonna have to turn around occasionally to check the guy behind me is talking? I think there should be team chat (when teams come) and whisper which is sent to anyone within say 10 metres of you or something Link to comment
green1152 Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 this will all be put to an end in 0.2 Link to comment
Leviathan Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 I think the voice mod is a good idea (for the one who has a microphone - I have) but you may configure the voice button (not MMB becouse some players -like me- are using that button allready) by yourself Link to comment
VreebieZ Posted August 15, 2003 Author Share Posted August 15, 2003 so I'm gonna have to turn around occasionally to check the guy behind me is talking? Very Good Critic! Maybe for player that are behind/not visible, a text just appear with player's name before it. Thanks for pointing that out.. Link to comment

I hope MTA:VC could have its own button assignment, apart from the in-game one. < Link to comment
VreebieZ Posted August 15, 2003 Author Share Posted August 15, 2003 That would lag a bit That's the consequences.. But I think a very low-quality, well-compressed mono-audio will do just fine.. Link to comment
RYS Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 This reminds me of Quake III. When you're in "chat mode" You have a little blue thingy over your head liike this[i will insert pic here check back later]...implementing this would be cool. Link to comment
slush Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 if you want to talk to other people in game, use ventrilo, roger wilco, or team speak. There will be no chat bubbles. -slush Link to comment
