SomeBull 0 Posted January 22, 2014 I was wondering all the equipment that there is in the game. One thing that surviving game needs is walkie-talkies.I know there is TS and so on but that is for pre-formed groups. It could be cool if you could find walkie-talkie or other communication equipment from the map and the trying to contact other survivors through the channels.In best case scenario you can try to call rescuers to help you escaping from the building where you are being pinned by horde of zombies. In worst case scenario you give your position to the rotten eggs out there and get killed/robbed. I don't think this would even be hard to implement because there is also voice communication in the game. So just if player has active communication device activated other players with the active communication device can hear him. There can also be different channels, maximum distance to signal to travel, addons like headset, etc. Comment what you like about the idea... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir.Jackson 2 Posted January 22, 2014 You can get walkie talkies now in the game, however they don't work yet but they're coming! :) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash Arkin 266 Posted January 22, 2014 Walkie-Talkies are actually already in the game, that being said they do nothing. But i hope they allow global chat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Otis.Driftwood 204 Posted January 22, 2014 Cheap walkies talkies have a range of about 2 km or less, more expensive one almost 30 km radius, so i dont know if can it be global....depends on the model and it cant cover the whole map. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crit 46 Posted January 22, 2014 No use anyway...thanks 3rd party coms. This is true that clans/friends will still use 3rd party. However it would be fun to just randomly broadcast on channels just to see if you get anything back. You never know it may be an easy way for friendlys to start playing together, or banditsruining somones day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandman77 3 Posted January 22, 2014 I like it, I hate TS so this would be cool. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcnools 5 Posted January 22, 2014 walkies would be very nice, maybe both long and short-range, that way you could get in touch with other players in the area who also happens to have walkies and meet up/lure them into a trap etc. could be interesting in many ways. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
