warnings in audio

Post by slicky » Wed Dec 17, 2008 2:20 pm

I just thought about another idea. Maybe we can try giving out warnings in audio, like plugins.

you mean warnings for swearing-breaking server rules? in audio?

do you mean by using microphone or by playing a pre-recording audio clip that warns people?

either way, i think it's a good idea, because when new players come sometimes, they don't know the rules, and in the heat of an intense battle in trying to upgrade their undead to level 2, they might not notice the admin spamming lines of text saying

[-.40calgames.com-] SERVER # WHATERVER > DO NOT SPAM WALLS/BOXES/CRATES! DO NOT SPAM!
[-.40calgames.com-] SERVER # WHATERVER > DO NOT SPAM WALLS/BOXES/CRATES! DO NOT SPAM!
[-.40calgames.com-] SERVER # WHATERVER > DO NOT SPAM WALLS/BOXES/CRATES! DO NOT SPAM!


because they are too excited and engrossed in the round.

but for regulars like me who know the rules quite well...there's no need for htis :mrgreen:

We can try, but whose sexy voice will we record to use?

Ummm, I can do the "snotty radio dj voice" very well....in fact, I was one, lol....and pretty good utils (compression/expander/limiter, etc.) to make it stand out....

A lot of people play with voice off though.

I don't think its a good idea, I think it would become annoying very quickly to players and members.

I honestly don't even think the binds are a good idea, I would say pming is your best bet.

Agreed, that would be too much of a distraction. I think using the mic for giving warnings is the best way.

Binds are good to inform and remind everyone of the rules.
