Doesn't anybody ever...
« on: June 28, 2011, 03:33:03 PM »
Tune to themselves on vox just to hear what their mic sounds like?  Whether it be too quiet, TOO LOUD, or sounds like you are talking through a tin can under water?  Sure doesn't sound like it on range.  Just sayin.

This would be a good item for the FAQ/game pointers that pop up while the game is loading.  I know there's one that says you can do it, but it might be nice to elaborate on WHY you should do it.

I've people tell me to shut up cause I talk too loud then at same time somebody will say they can barely hear me.  I notice that some people seem loud but when I ask around everybody seems ok with it.

would love to have a tunable GV range vox,  sometimes in tank town there is more chatting from the ground than at a W.I coffee break. 

squelching everyone or muting range vox is a little extreme for the pilots who are above the mud and the blood.

Sometimes I tune to myself just so I can hear what I’m going to say next.

LOL, Sunbat.   :rofl

I have to agree, that I have had folks say that someone is too loud and I can barely hear them.  That has mostly been cleared up since the last vox update. 

A problem could possibly be found not only in vox volume, but if players are not adjusting their environmental sounds also.

And one small point of order...  My mic is currently a piece of crapola, and that's why it drops out after a second.  I'm working on talking faster.    :aok

I have used the 'new' db thingy and works great. Then 10 miutes later it has reverted back to default setting with no warning. Anyone else have that problem?  So since that have been happening I always Have myself tuned to...myself, so I can keep checking. it. I want to make sure "No way I missed him, Bullcrap!" comes through loud and clear on range.

really need to work on that mental defect that causes me to push the 'range' button during turrettes outbursts.
