Radio commands
« on: June 20, 2010, 04:16:56 PM »
We currently only have Crysis radio commands, which can be accessed by pressing F5-F8 and 1-5 after the menu appeared. They don't fit into MWLL all that much and also fire weapons if pressed. So here's an idea for better radio commands that could replace the Crysis ones:

Acknowledge:
Yes / Aff
No / Neg
Thank you
Sorry
(Hello)
(Bye)

Tactical:
Move out
Fall back
Follow me
Stick together
Wait
Stop that!
Flank left
Flank right
Go passive

Intel:
Mech spotted
Tank spotted
Aerospace spotted
VTOL spotted
Battle Armor spotted
-----
AA spotted
APC spotted
Fire support spotted
Artillery spotted

Support:
NARC planted
TAG ready
Need backup
Returning to base
AA needed
APC needed
Transportation needed


feel free to contribute

Actually, simple "to the north/east/whatever" might be more useful. You could combine messages that way. "Artillery spotted" "to the east", "move out" "to the north"

Guys, guys...you only need one radio command:  "Shazbot!"

Get cockpit sniped?  Shazbot.  Get legged?  Shazbot.  VTOL dancing around above your head?  Shazbot.  The list of its uses is endless.

There should also be death rattles that would play if the person sending the message got killed part way through it, or if someone got killed at all. That would be pretty funny too. 
Something like:
"there is no w(static)"
"bullsh(static)'
"whoa pretty(static)"
"ahhhhhhhhh(static)"
"ouch ouch ou(static)"
"when i respa(static)"
"eeeeeeeeeeeek(static)"
"i hope i go critic(static)"

or something a bit shorter
There is no kill like overkill.

Crysis has a pretty clunky voice menu; something more like Tribes 2's or Planetside's voice menu would work much better.

Well? Also, it would give a menu for those commands on-screen (I never remembered the MW4 commands, i always looked)
People are stupid if they think they can have their own way.

I like this, though I think a few practical and oft-used phrases are missing:

* "Please assist in removing the BA that has landed on my head."
* "Did anyone see where my other leg went?"
* "Can anyone lend some CBills to an old Mechwarrior down on his luck?"
* "There's an Aero howevering out of radar and weapon range."

You could pretty much leave that last one on a loop  ;D

But seriously, it's a good idea to update those files and commands.

fapping. Loled.

Also, if you can't play Crysis, how do you plan on playing Wars?
