I've seen some topics containing ideas about music. However, I couldn't find one about this specifically.

There should at some point be an option to broadcast server specific radio stations. This would borrow a few other peoples ideas to make radios carry able items, of course. I feel like the radios should get reception based upon the condition of the radio. You can turn it on from your inventory screen and adjust the volume with a wheel scroll toggle. More to the specifics of what I'm thinking.

A fixed location that controls the broadcast over the radio. Players can take it, hold it, and fill the wastes with either magnificent music or rants and raves. If you want to hear something different on the radio you picked up, you have to take some buddies and go take the tower(s) for yourself.

Also. If a player doesn't have music to play, or things to say. They could select from a number of pre recorded podcasts or user created programs that could have updates. Updates about game developments, bugs to avoid and players to watch out for. Maybe a goodies station, a baddie station, a neutral station, and a personal station that allows you to either pollute or enrich the atmosphere of the game.

To prevent spam stations, you could let the community vote upon which three pre recorded stations would be an actual in game option. This vote could take place monthly or yearly, or weekly while were at it. I just think that music would do so much for this game.

Thoughts? Suggestions for my suggestion?

Peace.

I've wanted to make a radio station, just haven't found a walkie talkie yet.

 

It's really all you need though. Anybody with a radio could have a station, right?

No. How I'm thinking of it. The only way to broadcast would be from a fixed, player controllable location.

Handheld radios would be separate.

Separate as in they can't receive, or cannot transmit over the same frequency?

 

Perhaps range could also play a greater factor in radio communication.

Separate because of frequency. Direct, global, walkie and the broadcasts would all be separate.

I agree on the range. Realism is a thing after all.

My biggest question is, where is the radio's that was shown at E3 that played music?
