Less "Enemy Spotted" = awesome

radio spam is intolerable in bf2v, nice to know that is not the case for pr.6

sofad, jaymz, db, egor, KoC, etc... all did some amazing work on this stuff.

I absolutely hate the constant radio spam in older versions of PR (which we inherited from vBF2).

I think it's quite outstanding in v0.6.

Thanks for the explanation, Sofad!

What I still do not understand, though, is why you created custom sounds - they are custom, right? Or did you simply edit the original files?

I just liked the originals better. It is of course not a big problem, though. It just puzzles me why you would take time to create new sounds.

Ian, if you are still playing 0.5 you really need to get the 0.6 open beta. To put it bluntly, it is in another league entirely.

there are ALOT custom sounds in PR!

but if you speak about the radio chatter..

well, i changed the original radio files long time ago from the very clean and mass-market radio chatter files to some more dirty and noisy, more to reality sounding, voiceovers.

roles that use the radio ingame, sql and com, still use these original improved radio voices like they are since 0.4 (or 0.3??

)

the second thing was complete custom british grunt voiceovers, clean and radioed voice.

for 0.6 i did in addition a volume boost for all clear voicefiles that we use much more now in 0.6.

so, wich sounds do you like exactly in original better?

well, i dont know how are the military radios , but 3 years ago I was in a patrol car from the police, and i hear the radio , thats was pretty undertandable , even with the sorrounding sounds , but in PR they are very undestandable and "low" (and is way worse if you are in the MEC or PLA).

maybe some edit for the next version?

Post by **sofad** » 2007-07-01 00:50

with low you mean quiet?

hmm, maybe we could increase the radio volume a bit, now that we cut the radio chatter amount down by about 80%...

Post by **77SiCaRiO77** » 2007-07-01 01:00

yeah , they are quiet . IMO increasing the radio volume will not solve the problem completaly , maybe incresing the voice over the radio , not the distortion , coz.... .well i dont know

, i mean , know that we dont have more radio spam , more cleary sounds will be very welcome

Post by **77SiCaRiO77** » 2007-07-01 06:13

Post by **77SiCaRiO77** » 2007-07-01 06:25

Is that a future medic in the making? I think we need a female medic model (meaning in-game player character) in PR, and then use a sexy voice

Next step: taking out the remote scouting by spamming enemy spotted everywhere

that would result in no autospot anymore..
you then have to select manually via RMB the type of enemy you have spottet, and the minimap icon will stay on the minimap and dont move with the enemys real position anymore.. (and it will stay where are you aiming at, regardless if you real "hit" the enemy with your spotting)

^ you say that like that's a problem
imo that would be an ideal solution

Here are some funny things they should say:
"I've already checked you out commander."
"You want another physical?"
"Turn your head an cough."
