What about a limited amount of needed voice/wavefiles?

Lo everybody,

last time i played i recognized that the usage of the voicecommand is clearly the best function of aq2 :D

There is just no better way to taunt other players n stuff...
The only disturbing fact is that you never know if the other players on the server do have the wavefile, so i am just too lazy to play the waves... and the amount of available soundfiles is way too big too be sure the others have that explicit soundfile.

I guess the voicecommand would be used much more frequent if there was a limited amount of wavefiles which is required, maybe by the server, maybe only inofficial, organized by aq2world.com.

In my opinion it would increase MY PERSONAL FUN... and sometimes... i even play aq2 for fun. Sometimes. Maybe you just poll what you are thinkin about, then we will see if/what is done.

I really think voicecommands are annoying, because they are often abused .. :(

[21:27] <n99> dnb`maGro, what is your point - you want there to be a mininum amount of REQUIRED wavefiles you can annoy me?

I wouldn't mind to see voicewave see more use as a teamplay helper, so maybe custom teamplay waves for relevant info on your homemap or something. But 'mininum required'? I'm voting no, sorry.

maybe a standard voicepak would be good, only if you could do those in teammode, meaning, if you play newbie.wav on a match you get complains from both teams (trust me ;D), but.. somekinda pak for those who wanna have it :)

that is what i was think of. think voice is disabled in matchmode anyway.

I like voice sounds a lot because they make game much funnier :) One bad thing about this is that you can play any sound in you quake2 dir which is bad. ex. faking fall damage etc. it should be limited to user directory only.

I made a pak which is big more than 26mb I think and it has a lot of nice sounds from movies etc :) If anyone wants it just feel free to msg me on irc #aq2world (of course :P ) nick Stric.

The most immature part of aq2 is .wav files to be used as voices.
but I accidentally voted Yes. heh.

It's the best. OK the usage of it should be limited or something, but it really makes the game funnier..
I also have like a billion of these sounds :lol: Hope they will make some uber pak and put it on the page - aq2world of course.
