Ok, we've all seen and heard it in other FPS right?
The dreaded, yapper who can't shut up and constantly has his stereo or TV on in the background watching My Little Pony and fapping it to Fluttershy while he plays the game right... and he has his microphone on Vox so EVERYBODY and THEIR BROTHER CAN HEAR EVERY SINGLE LAST NOISE!!!
Right?
Well, then CCP kinda fixed that and made it so if you want to talk in DUST, you have to basically purchase talk power with real money (Aurum, micro-transactions). Then they restricted it further so that you can only talk to those people who are in the squad or whatnot with you.
Only oonnneeee little problem with this.
This is supposed to be a decently realistic ground combat game right?
Well, in REAL COMBAT you have the freedom to talk to WHOEVER is on your team at the time... and anyone ELSE who happens to be on the same channel as you.
Well, here's my suggestion.
Set the voice chat system so that you have separate voice chat channels. Each channel will be a different squad, team, platoon, and Company. Teams (called Squads now, which should be properly called Fire Teams) will still be the current 4 player grouping, but Squads should consist of 2 Fire Teams, a Platoon consists of 2 Squads, and a Company consists of 2 Platoons.
And so you can build larger and larger teams from there.
Now, the Voice chat, should be broken down into these separate unit designations, so that Team 1 Squad Bravo (or B) First Platoon, Alpha Company (A Company) (or Abbreviated; t1sB1PAc) would be able to communicate with each of the members of their team but, would also be able to switch up to the Company Channel and talk to the Company Commander and pass intelligence reports.
CCP you have taken this game too far into the realm of FPS, and not enough into the realm of Strategy Gaming.
If you want this game to truly stand out from the veritable CROWD of other First Person Shooters... then you need to introduce a means by which strategy can be executed as well. |

Some changes are coming May 6th. You might want to check those out.
I don't think this one is although it might be of interest: they are discussing being able to overhear local Reds. Maybe Blues for all I know.
As far as the Little Pony Loving just Mute said character. Then announce you did it while telling the New Berries on Team Speak how to accomplish it as well. |
