And besides, mm3 doesn't give that much help in aq2, it might help you if you're in a 1on1 situation, but then you probably know where your enemy is, if you don't you're probably dead before your brain has analyzed and understood what your mate actually said. I've played on lans a few times when my mates have yelled the enemy's position too me and it just made me confused. BUT, I understand why all of you others want limchase2 on, and I respect it.


I dont think voice program is cheating. With licmhasecam 2 enabled it wont affect the game that much. The only thing tho is that your teammate can tell you where he died... and where the enemy was at that point. Thats the only advantage as I see it. That and your teammate can say if he has low or high health.



And Jazzie, voice helps out alot if you are using tactics while playing. Instead of typing the location while you are alive you say it and save some secs here and there.



The only sad thing tho is that some clans doesnt say it to their opponents in regular cws.

Does anyone want to buy a headset :P



Ok so i voted it should be allowed. Not that many people have mics anyways. With limchasecam 2 you cant tell where the enemy is. Only thing is you can tell youre death, and guess what % of health the enemy has. Disadvantage is that it might distract you or you might not be able to hear your enemy walking.

I cant believe this. As I'm writing, 'NO' is actually leading the poll.

AQ2 doesnt have any built-in voice communication program like Counter-Strike, and that by itself should draw a line for whats allowed and whats not.

There will always be people who look at voice communication programs as a cheat, and since AQ2 doesnt have its own unique program, it should be considered as a cheat.

Does this mean that if I could manage to turn 60% of the community into considering brightskins as legal, that its gonna be OK to use them? For Gods sake, programs that allow for voice communication in-game is your worst enemy out there. As of today, theres no way to find out if your opponents are using these kinds of programs. The only protection you can use is limchasecam, but that allows the opponent to use a regular wallhack since you cant watch how they play from their field of view.

*So deeply dissapointed by this poll*

bah..It sucks that AQ2 people want the game to be the old game we used to have. Just because AQ2 ain't as huge as CS it's great that people takes it more seriously and plays it more serious. The voice communication just shows that people take the game more serious and that to me is a good thing.



My opinion is that if AQ2 starts getting more and more serious it will get a greater and bigger reputation, and more people will start playing. The voice communication just makes the teamplay greater and the competition bigger if both clans use it.



And again..if limchasecam is on, what is the big deal? Of course, if you die you can spam where the person is, but other than that there's not that big advantage :p

btw. there's a poll in aq2suomi website (it was submitted 29.11. and now, three days later, 202 people have voted) where people can vote should mm3 be allowed or not.



"No" ~75%

"Yes" ~14%

"What is mm3?" ~12%

How you gonna know he's bandaging? (unless you're on a cheap limchasecam 0 server :roll:)



As you probably already know, we play matches for a laugh. We have a laugh on TS too, for example I will make fun of Goldblade when he misses a jump or something :p
