My thumbsticks will be your Doom.... sorry 'bout that.My Stats
Well last weeks update mentioned something juicyTimmins has voice communication working in game for real, and has done some very neat stuff with player CENSORED and team voice stuff.Now I'm as excited as all hell for Halo 2 over XBL especially so I can talk to my friends from across the country while playing the game we all love but with all the xbob games coming out that have basic voice recognition do you think Halo 2 will as well? Either to command Marines and ODST's or Cortana (which would make sense wouldn't it?)?I also remember in an update (i think the week before last's) Frankie saying something about there being 4 times as much Combat dialogue. I love combat dialogue. Hearing your Marine buddies say "get up so I can kill you again" and "Class dismissed" in about 8 different tones of voice is amazing. I love it when they react to "nice toss"'s, "nice shot"'s and "i think i saw one wearing a skirt"'s.... uh well you get my drift. What are your wishes for voice commands? And how could we have 4 times more combat dialogue? What could they possibly have to say?What could you possibly have to say? [Edited on 6/10/2004 2:52:15 PM]
(BUMPa licious)I was just playing Silent Cartographer and after that first assault up the beach -while your waiting for Foehammer to bring in the Warthog- you can shoot the Marine who's talking to the pilot, -he'll stop speaking mid-sentence (especially if it's a headshot). In fact he'll grunt into the com. Then Foehammer finishes the dialogue as if nothing happened! Man that's cool. i don't know why. but it is.
somebody please vote! this is my first poll and if no one votes then I'll never run for re-election as president of the newbs.
Don't bump, or the mods will lock the thread.As for voice commands, I don't think it would work well. This is a fast paced FPS, not a squad-based game like Rainbow Six, SOCOM, etc...
It can be for fast pace. It doesn't take that long to think and say were you want them to go. But It seems hard to implament to me. But if they had it, the game will be that much better. It annoys me that people don't want to put things into the game that they don't absolutly have to use. If you don't like it then don't use the during Campiagn mode don't use the microphone[Edited on 6/10/2004 3:05:29 PM]
Jason Jones has confirmed himself that you can not give voice commands. I dont like the idea anyway. Halo (2) is a first person shooter, not a squad based game.
Posted by: haloruler33Jason Jones has confirmed himself that you can not give voice commands. I dont like the idea anyway. Halo (2) is a first person shooter, not a squad based game.Why can't you have squad based elements in a FPS?When/where did Jason Jones confirm this?Can you think of other uses for voice recog?
I would rather have a couple controller based commands, like even if it was just telling a certain marine to get in/out of a vehicle would be great...
