Radio communication

[ersickerash 0]

Hi there, this is one of my firsts post in the community, and i know the radio has been suggested in some posts already, but as far as i can see none of those posts explain a radio comm system...and this is how i would like the radio system will be (if it will be implemented):

-You need to use an item called radio station (spawned in military station or hospitals and you cant loot them, static and useable item) or walkie-talkies (lootable like the hunting knife or the matches)

-You need to talk in the right channel, for example you can use from the channel 000 to 999, so you need to know where are your friends or try channel to channel looking for someone friendly.. or not

-The radio station and the walkies have different radius of action, for example the walkies have 4 sectors far from you to communicate, and the radio 20.

-It will be good too, that you need batteries for the walkie-talkies, and if you are getting low on batteries your friends listen you bad or you cant listen them well

And i think thats all, sorry for my english if theres something you cant understand well, im from Spain

Greetings!

Or I could just log in to TS ?

Yeah you could just join ts with your friends, but it will be good i think for the RP players, people looking for others in a apocalypse, instead of using the chat, and for a direct comm with your friends ingame ( because in my opinion external programs like TS break a little the dark atmosphere of the game, and that atmosphere is one the thing i love of this mod)

I like this idea I think they should do away with the general chat and and make using radios the only way to communicate long distances.

But I think you should have a signal depending on your distance from the various radio towers in the game. You should have to "turn on" radio towers to boost your signal so you can talk longer distances.

I also like the idea of different frequencies so you can talk on different "channels" and not everyone will hear you. Also makes eavesdropping on other players more realistic.

I would like to see in this game: radio direction finder (RDF), coder of channels and radio-jammer. (And the ban for Skype :) )

I think we/I pretty much suggested the exact same things as you did here.

Team speak is gay. ruins the point of the game.

even if you do get you and your friends on TS3, you still can't communicate with strangers that way.

with that being said.

you should add Long range radios, I suggested it in my "back pack" thread that's in my sig.

It's suppose to be a long range radio that is portable. maybe 50klick range

they should add short range walkie talkie with 10 klick range and static radio towers that can send out radio waves out to 200 klicks out

In your opinion what is the **no spam links** used for? Do you have a basic understanding of the knowledge about it? If you want to know more about it, then you can stop your step then you will get the information and the knowledge you want.
