ok.. this is going to sound dumb but oh well im going to put it out there i was thinking we could have a voice chat bord insted of typing just talk to every (hands free) so there is my idea let me no what u think

good idea, but i dont think the shout box suports voice? and alot of ppl dont have a mic.

One other thought...how would you keep out certain words, terms, etc. that are considered bannable offenses of one sort or another? It's not like you can bleep them out like you can with television.

could always use TeamSpeak - Welcome to TeamSpeak
i could easily host a server for it, did for a different game for a while in the past

theres also plenty of other 3rd party chat systems, like
Roger Wilco -- Voice Chat for Games

and a few others i'm sure
i did know of 2 others, but they seem to be gone now since there sites no longer exist.

This statement makes no sense to me...they are far away??? WTF.....they have a keyboard don't they? Not that far away.

IMO...voice chat is lazy....if I wanted to hear the other person I would call them on the phone.

Besides...I am not using the sites limited bandwidth on a voice chat feature that could also potentially slow the site down.

ok thats fine

**freakzilla** · 07-02-2008, 05:00 PM

it could always be user hosed and non site realted if you guys wanted dah

**biohazard** · 07-02-2008, 06:49 PM

thats why i said msn....or even yahoo

**ryan** · 07-02-2008, 10:55 PM

the point was not to type and so everyone in the game could talk together

**zaroba** · 07-03-2008, 02:25 AM

although freak seems like he wouldn't mind doing it, i personally wouldn't like listening to a voice chat anytime i'm on to hear if somebody is breaking rules.

unlike the text chat where i can leave it on my 2nd monitor while doing other stuff on my main monitor, having to monitor a voice chat would make it impossible to listen to music, play a pc game, or watch movies/whatever while on.

This has become insane....I think voice chat would just be out of control on here.

+1 on what Bio has been saying....

**biohazard** · 07-03-2008, 09:07 AM

and on that note...
