valid Tank emotions

[Maf 32,300]

Obviously only a tiny fraction of registered forum users actively participate in discussions (and this one in particular), but still it's wise for the developers to discuss a potential upcoming with the players because they can still get some unexpected feedback that would help them improve the idea. More importantly, it shows that they want to interact with players and get them involved in the shaping of the project, which is good for gaining people's trust  :ph34r:

Great, idea hazel, but why are you posting it here, you work at tanki's headquarters...

Scary angry faces all over the battlefield! Still better than anger in the chat.

lol if that happened I would just change battlefields

Everybody likes to suggest, so do I! Let's see how it goes..

 

As long as most of the players think that in TO universe they are the tanks I suggest making emotion icons over tanks with quick chat commands to support this attitude.

 

Let's say you want to say "hi". You press a button (or combination) and system do this for you. Not only it sends a message "hi" on suitable language to battle chat, but shows a bubble over you tank with "hi" icon. Same thing will happen if player would like to express anger, thank or call to attack enemy base. Localized chat message + bubble over tank so you can see who calls.

 

There also should be passive emotions when a player self destructing, chatting, changing equipment, pausing, taking gold etc. This will make tanks even more 'alive'. Probably, upon using or picking up a supply box icon also should be shown (without chat message).

 

In this case, tanks will gain their own emotions so the game will support players idea that they are the tanks, also it will make international communication much easier.

Realy like the idea , But wouldn't the FPS from a player with a bad computer be even lower becouse of this?

Another idea is to add smiley's to the battle and main chat so it will be easyer to express yourself.

For the unaware, sure. For those like myself, it can be transparent. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the section, its just not what it could/should be.

 

 

To get back to the discussion: In what circumstance would visually displayed text/emoticons be absolutely necessary?

That will be a bit annoying..!! If a player says 'Hi Sweet Heart' then you can't kill that innocent boy/girl.>!!! LOLZZ

My suggestion is that new Smiley "facepalm" would be added on Forum.

Yep.

[Indra_Otsutsuki 329]

I think the bubbles will be unnecessary besides having emotions in the chat will be more than satisfactory  :D  

[Indra_Otsutsuki 329]

If you are gonna give a option to enable/disable emotions please also give us a option to enable/disable chat emotions.
