Voice communication


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello Tankers...I have played other online games where you can, for example press the "B" button to talk with head set to your team mates. I think it would be awesome if Tanki could implement such a feature. I know a whole team of 10 on a big map would get a little "loud" maybe squad feature so a small team with in a team could Talk to each other. In DM I guess you don't need it but in a team game it would be a valuable tactical asset to be able to talk with your team. 

 

I know there is Skype, Teamspeak and Ventrilo but peoples team or clan are not always on at the same time. 

 

Anyway just an idea,  the game is awesome the way it is now too

Interesting idea, but I think if voice communication was added, the game would lag many times more. Voice communication is a huge amount data sent across the wires between all the players, the traffic would be terrifying, and many people would not be able to play at all.

True...I used to play BF2, of course it was loaded onto my PC. It was a huge program and it had VIOP and it was a  very cool feature. Maybe some day though...

 

*presses the "V" button "LOOK OUT fool4krist he is coming up behind you!!!"   you press the "V" button  "thanks Dirt...that was a close one"

Well we literally do that in our Skype calls, but it's true - not everyone is always online and you may want to talk to your team in the present game. I have a worthy computer that can handle plenty of memory-hungry applications, but my internet speed (especially upload) is not really good. I know there are plenty of other players with bad internet, who already complain about lags as it is - with such a feature the game would be unplayable for them.

Yeah he is right. Instead of voice communication we can use skype when playing with our clans or teams.

My voice sounds really funny when its recorded, so I think normal chat is okay.

 

Besides, what would your parents thought if they heard you shouting at the computer, "Watch out behind you raper2334!"

*Sigh* No, read what fool4krist wrote before you, I don't think this would work for an online game.

I have used such a feature in online games with great success. It was squad based so you could talk to the members of your squad with multiple squads per team. seemed to work well for me and at the time I had an average computer. It can work, I don't know if it would work for Tanki but a feature like that I would  like.

True. About every online game runs on Steam and 1 thing steam has in its games are built in microphones for you to talk to your teammates. It would be very useful in tanki, though most of you would say

Skype is waaaaay better.If tank could make a built in microphone program (which is actually possible through flash player), then there would be no need for skype.

Here's what I think from this--I think this can develop into a great idea. However, you HAVE to pick who you want to call (by double-clicking their name when clicking tab), they would be able to see if someone's calling them, and whoever started the call and conversation would be the ONLY ONE aloud to add or subtract people. If this wouldn't happen, then everyone will be aloud to have personal conversations--let me give you an example of what would happen if the original caller didN'T be the only one aloud to add or take away people---

 

 

Example---skitee wants to call hogree. hogree then wants to add beer.me to the conversation, but skitee doesn't like that. skitee takes out beer.me from his conversation so his voice is only talking to hogree. hogree is talking to both players. So, while skitee is talking to hogree, beer.me is also talking to hogree but skitee doesn't know that. hogree has two people talking to him at the SAME TIME!!! It would be very frustrating for hogree. Therefore, the decision of hogree adding beer.me didn't work out well at all. 

 

Additions to this idea--you of course are aloud to take yourself out of the conversation. You CANNOT, however add anybody in a new conversation who is already in a conversation. What do you guys think of this idea, all of which are trying to make this work.
