Thoughts about live (voice) RP (events) in cRPG

[Bjord]

I much prefer text-based roleplaying. You expect me to listen to broken and butchered English?

Don't get me wrong, I really like RP. I just think this is something that will most likely sink on its maiden journey.

But the idea is good, I'm not dissing you at all. Perhaps it could work if <insert secret project> had in-game VoIP with 3D sound, that way more people could speak at the same time.

BTW I just remembered, Teamspeak has this 3D sound thing. It might actually work, but there is no dynamism in it as you have to manually move your "character" in the menu.

Anyway, best of luck.

Well, here, i found a Mumble tutorial link. VoIP 3D sound in-game.

But i have to agree with broken and butchered English issue, though it's not players' fault - few of us ever taken speaking skill lessons or taken part in theatre plays.

Roleplay isn't complete without the sexy brit accent 


Sorry Cas you sound too much like a peasant they need posh accents!

That is the first time I've ever been called a peasant! How very dare you sir!

Go to persistent world servers. C-rpg is for fighting.

Obviously you didn't get it, did you? Why bother commenting then?

P.S. PW is bullshit.

I've got more class in my bollocks than you have in your whole body, serf.

I find both Casimir & Crymoar somewhat sexy even tho they're britmy old friends. Don't know why, tho......

Maybe its subconscious since I once saw Casimir's picture and I'm hoping that Crymoar too is such a nice lad with that classic decent schoolboy haircut...also that british accent mmmm.....

Interesting idea, it can be done, as there's a native server completely dedicated to it
I love RPing, but I would prefer it to be typed-based or Atleast one where I don't have to talk.

any way, I'd like to get some more information about it all, then ill say my opinion

I assume by butchered English you were referring to Casi? It's horrible, it gives me ear infections!
If you want THE English accent, you can have me. Only £9.99 an hour!

This is great!
I can actually remeber those RPs, they sometimes were a complete mess, but were always fun no matter what.
Btw for later RPs we even created a separate module to allow wearing different clothes. cRPG is perfect for this!

About broken english - it is never a problem, everyone can get a role: you can be a foreign trader or even some assasin who isn't good at local language. In one RP I've been an enemy scout group member and we were mostly speaking between each other.

Also, voice RP is great, for example one time we could spy an official meeting, it was rather hard to hear but that is just an addition to fun.

Another part of greatness in these RPs is that even though roles are predefined, only organiser knows all characters: you won't know if there is an enemy scout group, or how many guards are in a village.
Yeah, there are a lot of things laying on organisers, but even if plot isn't very great, people rule that event and it is still interesting.
