Oh wow. Most of you have no clue about anything of what blockland do.

Most of you should watch this before saying loads of nonsense. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nckXgZFtp0

I don't see what point your trying to make. Everything said in there has already been said in this and many similar topics several times.

It is currently not possible, the only way we can get it is to convince Badspot that it would be worth his time. Considering that a majority of players will end up just muting voice chat, you're not going to have an easy time convincing him.

Skype game overlay. Done.

Too many Mic topics, for the last time, it's impossible.


/Lock it.
Stupid idea, So lock it.

And have eight-year-olds scream at me every second I'm in a server?
No loving way.

Make mute button.

Mute button wouldn't help. You'd have to mute half the people in the server and then people would stop using text chat and then when you mute them you wouldn't hear some things you might need to hear.

1.This can't be done.
2.This shouldn't be done.

Instead of full range chat, why not chat rooms?
Some people chat in one room, and it's private.

pay him 500 dollars to put it in the game, he might consider...

I find it odd that all the people that want voice chat come up with bullstuff methods of countering the many, many problems, and yet cannot produce a single good, irrefutable reason for having this.

Okay, I'll give it a try:

Bad:

~ Noobs spamming nonstop in your ear, making you want to overdose on Advil.
~ little 8 year old kids trying to be "cool" and cussing everyone out.
~ teenagers discussing nasty and inappropriate material.
~"LLAAAGGGG!!!!" goes right into your ear, and probably it would be like 8 people screaming at the same time.
~ Need I say more?

Good:

~Useful in TDMs for discussing strategy and giving orders to teammates, no one ever hardly chats in a TDM because they're getting shot at!
~ You don't stop whatever you're doing to constantly type messages to your chatty friends.

All in all, I voted "no" for this. Don't get me wrong, it's an interesting idea, but it just couldn't happen. Poor Badspot would have a lot of complaints about chatty noobs and all these other problems that arise from the voice chat.

~Useful in TDMs for discussing strategy and giving orders to teammates, no one ever hardly chats in a TDM because they're getting shot at! Would there even be control to see who gets which voice chat? Sounds like an even further extent I wouldn't see come about.
~ You don't stop whatever you're doing to constantly type messages to your chatty friends. Speaking can also be distracting in its own ways. "BILLY! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!" "NOTHING, MOM!"

Poor Badspot would have a lot of complaints about chatty noobs and all these other problems that arise from the voice chat. Everyone complains about everything. If he ever implemented this, it'd be so background.

Note none of what I said above is for this. I'm extending the points made and directing that this is an absolute no.

I think that blockland should have a Microphone chat in their next update...it would make chatting more easier and quicker instead of typing.
I love the idea.
Too many people? Mute all but one you talking too! Screamer? Mute them. Sensor? Mute em! Can't spell right? Use voicechat!  There All problems solved! Ideas for voicechat: Sound mixer, changes voice! Recorder, easier to do interview! And keep reg chat too so you can post links!
