Hey i was sitting here thinking about some more commands like "Cover me" and "Reloading" it would be more realistic and make the teamplay better.ยจ

I dont know if its posible to add new radio commands, and all that like the voice if your setting next to a guy, but i would be nice i think so :P

If it is possible...

"Cover me!"
"Reloading"
"Clear"
"Hit the deck"
"Fall back"
and the most important of all...

"GRENADE!"

Yes!! You hit the nail right on the head, me and my mate were having a conversation about this, and we agree that there should be more sqaud based commands! If your team incorperated that into the game you would be loved by me and many more!!!!!!!! :)

I find it quite annoying when your trying to take a street, and you can't ask people to cover you so yes, "covering fire!" would be a nice one...or "supressing fire!". Also in game you can spot planes and tanks and troops, but it would be fantastic if you could say the type of troop ahead e.g. if there happened to be a machine-gunner ahead covering the street you need to run across, you could spot him, letting your team know the danger, and then working as a sqaud to take him out. *deep breath* i think i have too much to say.
Another useful one would being able to spot mines and c4, as there has been one too many occasions where iv'e tried to tell my team mates thats theres mines ahead, and they've just ran into them...new commands w000 good idea! :idea:

Thanks for saying my idea is good, cuzs it could be very nice with those kinda commands, but i think the problem is the voices like for China and MEC, the team needded some asian and arabian guys to do it :P

In simple terms... get your *** on the ground (ie... go prone)

Hit the deck means, lie down/go prone, mainly used when theres incoming fire or if your team is in danger of being spotted, evasive manuevers and all that lark. :|

"Pop Smoke" would also be handy to get the assult guys to throw out a smoke grenade.

Or something Like INCOMMING!!! would also be cool, but still they need to add voices, thats the biggest problem :)

Indeed, would be pretty cool, having a soldier desperatly cry out grenade, while he scrables to his feet and runs for the nearest cover , a hale of machine gun bullets peppering the ground inches from his feet ...BOOM! A crater apears exactly where he was lying, and he survived, all thanks to PRs new radio commands!!!! w000 go PR!

Yes fitting the command menu onto the hud somewhere would be challenging, i think if the PR team did incorperate this, they'd probably need to overhaul the whole HUD... :|

^^ Yea now you talk about craters, Is it posible to make craters on the ground after Artillery and Grenades? it would look good and be more realistic instead of just a black spot, But that just my oppunion :)

No, i agree totaly craters would be wicked!!! But im thinking, maybe that would decrease the game speed for many people with older computers and lower internet speeds, if it doesn't (which i hope it wont) Craters would be sooooo cool!

That would most likely cause for recoding the game's engine... The closest you can get to things like that (that I'm aware of) in the game is for a mapper to premake the map with shell craters (ie... the USMC MEU is assaulting a beachhead thats been shelled.)

I think these commands would be great but is it possible to add custom commands like that?
