Voice packs - additions and reminder

[Seawied]

OPEN THE GATE!   <----most used voice command on maps without gates.



I played no small part in making this one go full spread 

[Largg]

As it has been said, there are far too many voice commands currently. Most of them are hardly ever used, at least in the right place, and the useful ones are drowned in the mass of unuseful commands.

I don't know if anyone has tried hl2 mod Age of Chivalry? That mod has some textbook class voice acting, I remember how I loved spamming those hilarious taunts over and over again, giggling at them. I've even ported some of the voice commands used there replacing the ones in c-rpg. So much more fun.

And bring taunts! Battle is no battle if you can't mock the opposing teams' skirts 

[Cepeshi]

Yeah, simpli simplyfiy symplif making things more simple could never hurt. I barely use anything else than QML, QMV and QQF. The command system has great potential, if tailored well, but as i barely do command others, i cannot offer any suggestions what should be there or not.

Seems like there is nice community here, that is not shy, so maybe, just maybe, you could try to arrange making several different accents I mean, i personally would love commands with russian accent, those are just classy, like: Defend the wall, comrades!

edit: reading back, why on earth would i want to defend walls? 

[Odion]

i like them,

sometimes no one reads chat and it can be irrelevant. (e.g if your team is split in 2 and you type enemy is behind us, which group are you talking about)

i like how the sound is louder as you are closer to the person that say it,

my favorite commands are the incomming inf/cav from behind/left/right people do turn when you use them.

you just need a cool down to prevent spamming. like if you use 3 commands within 3-5 seconds you cant use it again for another 30 sec.

So, considering that the voice pack has been out for some time, I was wondering
a) what people think of it
b) if anyone wants to do another voicepack (we'd desperately need a female voice actor)
c) if there are commands that you think should be added.

we will soon add another voicepack, so you can select your voice via website. Once we use WSE you will also be able to select the pitch of your voice.

I like them and I use them quite a bit. Just takes time to learn them and memorize the most important ones so you can say things quickly on the battle field.

1. Can we add some Direction commands?

For Example - Infantry - enemy cavalry incoming - 7 o'clock


2. Also, can we add another color for simple small distance command, for teammates that's really close to you?

For example - check your back
or - help me
or - I need your clothes your boots and your motorcycle

It would be great if we can make this command simple. As simple as Whistle in previous versions


3. Can we add some time commands?

For example - archers - supressing fire - 90 seconds
or - Infantry - hide in hay - 20 seconds


4. Last idea for today - can we make different voices pack for low and high strength characters? I wanna hear Burrick's roar and peasant's chirp.

[okiN]

Fix the broken ones! E.g. the flank attack command. If you redo the layout, be careful not to have any impossible overlapping key combos again.

[Sultan Eren]

What about the formation commands are only usable by top five?

[okiN]

Nah, terrible idea. Good players aren't always good commanders, and conversely spending time commanding will almost inevitably hamper your score. Classes also greatly influence scoreboard placement, as does level. There's zero link between the leaderboard and leadership skills.

except that the scorevoard leaders are often quite experianced players and therefor know enough about the game to command decently

[Sultan Eren]

And i hate voice spam.

Not a surprising comment from such a successful cavganker, but I'm not sure I'd want to take orders from you.

good thing is im way to humble to start yellin commands unless i see ppl beeing total retards.  and if so i wouldnt bee using the commands anyway,  cause clearly my iq is insufficiant to fully gasp the system

[Magikarp]

The whistle thing could get an easier way of doing it, it's the simplest voice command I could imagine.

[Jacko]

I can never be arsed to do the voice commands when it's usually faster just writing "inc cav left", "inc bd", "help bd" and so on.. And people tend to listen more to written commands *shrugs*. Maybe I'm just lazy.
