Title: Range VOX volume control
Post by: Baumer on September 20, 2007, 05:05:16 AM
I'd really like to be able to control the range VOX volume while in flight. Keep everything else the same just be able to tune range out once in awhile.

just an example but it really does suck when you're trying to listen to squaddies talk and there's continuos chatter on range breaking it all up.

Nail that one. Perfect example. This is a great idea. if it can be made so, maybe a slider in options. HTC if you read this, please consider idea, it would be wonderful thing. Especially for missions.

Have you folks ever thought of squelching?  I squelch whiners, *****ers, and yakkers on a regular basis.  The blathering, whining & complaining does get annoying.  Rather than turning it down, how about a simple on/off switch?  If the only important thing is squaddie talk, this would be an option.  Of course you might miss that one important chunk of info that a non-squad pilot is relaying to you.

Consider a FSO or other event. Your there early, for a half hour your stuck in the same tower as 60 or so other guys. You'd really like to be able to hear what your squad mates are talking about. However the yahoos in the next squad are whooping & yelling like a bunch of drunks.

In half an hour you MAY need to hear the warnings that one of these guys may give.  So you really don't want to squelch them. Plus there is 22 of them, thats a  lot of .squelch gameid to go through.

Just give us a single simple slider in voice options to control range output.

That way we can turn it down when in the tower. And back up again when we are ready to hear them again. Yes we are control freaks, we admit it freely.

But its OUR eardrums and sanity we are looking to control.

YES!
not only would i like to be able to tune it out, i'd like to be able to turn it up sometimes, every now and again i'd love to be able to turn it up during fights or bombing raids.

This is needed in big furballs and in TT...When you are trying to help them by doing squad ops and you screw up because you misheard what your CO said...as Latrobe's example stated.
