Worthless chatter

I think we should get rid of all the worthless chatter that is in game. I mean, the stuff like "Ammo here!" and "OK buddy, you're good to go, get.....blah blah" All that stuff is worthless.

If you are giving someone ammo when you are in the middle of an assault, you aren't going to yell out, "AMMO HERE!!!" so the enemy can here you. If you do, you've given away your position. Every time I give ammo, I cringe

because I have possibly compromised my teams position to the enemy.

If you want to yell, something like "GOGOGO!!!", thats one thing. But to be forced to yell out, everytime you do something, is rediculous. What do you guys think?

Yeah i discovered awhole sqaud in mashtuur city because one guy was running around throwing medic bags, i throw up two grenades on the roof and BOOM....4 nade kills

i like your idea, but they should not remove the "Frag Out", but ad some new commands like "INCOMMING" or "GET DOWN" i would love to yell INCOMMING!!! when there was and tank firing close at your position or if there was an artillery strike going on

ya, I was on Karkand vanilla a few days ago, and heard a guy around the corner saying he's throwin a frag nade, ran around the corner and ventilated him...

If I was in his shoes, I wouldt want to get found out cuz I was talking to myself when nobody else was around warning myself and the enemy I'm gonna throw a nade to flush him out...

Well, medics can't throw bags anymore and if in a non-safe area, don't throw ammo, just approach friendlies like the medic does. It takes longer but is silent. If a Medic revives you, I'm fairly sure somebody knew that the downed soldier was in that position, I mean someone killed him right? So tact isn't crucial there. I hope that the ammo tossing stops like the med-bags did. It will slow down movement, stop constant grenade spamming, and force a squad to stay togther.

We're working on this one guys, hopefully look for it in the next release

It will be much nicer than having text on screen trust me, the audio will still be there, but in a way that will be new to many of us!

Awesome, great idea that I think should be changed also.
Thanks for the update JS.Fortnight.A, can't wait. For now
I'm really enjoying .254!
