Ello everyone. Don't usually post much around here but I came up with a suggestion I've seen in other servers that I enjoy, so figured I'd pitch it here.
Seperate the dead players' voice chat from the alive players.
Main reason for this, usually when someone dies, with a mic, they start talking right away on either how much of a bs kill it was or just talking to hear their own voice (you know, the ones that NEVER shut up). Makes it harder for other players to listen within the game while they're still in the game. Another attribute would be ghosting, although it really isn't an issue in your servers, but it happens time to time.
I for one don't play with a head set or a mic. Yes, I own one, have tried to play, but I tend not to be the most talkative person and don't really enjoy the headset aspect of hearing. And it gets annoying sometimes when you're trying to play the game and there's a full blown conversation going on. I'm well aware of MUTE PLAYERS, it's my best friend. But I don't mind talking back and forth here and there, it's when a full out conversation gets going that keeps me from being able to hear that prick about to knife me
Just a suggestion, I've seen it on other servers.
Thanks,
Caboose |

Though I can see the logic in doing this, I think it would be more of an annoyance then anything. Nothing would bother ME more then being in the middle of a convo and not being able to finish it till next round. I have that annoyance issue when I'm typing, due to the need of a long-winded comment.
Or... just half the time i wanna say something witty and 30seconds later no one gives a damn so the joke is lost to waste =(

To be perfectly honest....the majority of players who frequent our servers are in it for fun, and the voice aspect adds to that. If you dont want to deal with people talking after being killed, just turn it down in your settings

Was just a suggestion. Not a serious gamer, I use your server and this game to unwind a bit from the day, and last thing I wanna do in my unwind period is listen to someone talk non stop. I'll detune my voice settings, as I've already done. But as I said, I don't mind talking back and forth here and there, just when a full blown conversation gets going and you can't hear anything in game.
And zodiac, some of us need sound to figure out where people are |
