Vehicle Direct Comms Idea

Recommended Posts

Short and simple, on some military vehicles (land and air) add loudspeakers which can be set as a separate communication channel and have massively improved range and volume over standard direct comms. It'd be useful for players in helicopters mainly to communicate with people on the ground such as giving instructions to people (read holding them hostage and listing demands).

This is something I've wanted for a while. Maybe in SA you could do some kind of wiring to connect speakers to the outside of vehicles.

I think loudspeakers in places in general should be a good idea. If you look, firestations have sirens. Wouldn't it be smart to, oh, I dunno, set off the siren, attract a whole bunch of zeds, then blow the firestation up with your cleverly-placed satchel charge, thus eliminating a large threat?

Or, having a microphone, so say if you take over a town, you can communicate, "YOU ARE IN A CONTROLLED ZONE. SIGNS OF HOSTILITY WILL NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY! PLEASE GET OUT OF YOUR CAR!"

It'd be good in vehicles, but other things, too. Also, what about exclusive police radios, or truck driver HAM radios? If you found all the police cars you and your buddies can communicate secretly without the need of 3rd party software, or, just other randoms you team up with in-game.
