Radio chatter beeps

Post by charliegrs »

At the end of generation kill during the end credits you get to hear some real recorded radio chatter of the marines during the Iraq invasion. One thing ive noticed when listening to military radio chatter is there always a beep at the beginning of the transmission. Watch this video and you will see what i mean

YouTube - gk ep 2 endiing

So im curious if this could be implented in PR? Now i know voip is hardcoded, but i dont know to what extent that is because youl notice theres a beep when you talk to the commander. so maybe its possible? i think it would be really cool and realistic, when your squadmates are talking to you it would sound like they are on real military comms and not just some person at home on a mic.

I am against this becuase most of voip chatter is done to people a few meters from you where radio comms would not be used. This beep would get annoying i know it. I mean it annoyed me just watching that video.

Heh, this kinda shows how different the game is from RL.

In PR. If we want an Arty strike we pull up our binocs, click "Need Area Attack", and the commander even says yes or no.

Here the whole 3 minute thing is them calling in some kind of support, probably arty.
Everyone wants to easily kill their opponent but nobody wants to be the one easily killed. That line of thinking escalates weaponry to the point where practically every soldier has a shoulder-mounted nuke launcher that when fired, automatically displays the text "pwnt".- [R-CON]Wolfe

no thanks. In the squad you should be close to each other you would not be using a radio to communicate in the squad. Therefore I dont think that this would be a good idea.

problem is most times you talk in PR its with your squad... you dont talk to your squad with a radio ;) you talk to them because they are close to yo. it does it for the commander now because he is far away...

So, imo, I think its not worth it and not realistic... and would get annoying...

yeah it does, and thats why i thought it could be implemented even though voip is very hardcoded.

and maybe it could be made so you could turn the beeps on and off? that way anyone that wants them can have them and the people who are annoyed by them can turn them off?
