[Suggestion] Voip in Blockland, Voice chat.

[NakedBanana]

Hey, i was just wondering if someone could make the ability to add VOIP in blockland. So that you can talk to each other without typing. Please also make it so that you can toggle VOIP on/off at the Server Settings... This would be really awesome for Large TDM's and perhaps Jail's.

What about a WalkieTalkie / Radio, that you have to select from your inventory, and when you hold your left click it allows you to talk.

Would probably require extremely hacky implementation with an outside program if done by anyone other than the developers. And that mod would definitely be fail-binned if released.

It's one of those things you just have to cross your fingers for in future updates.

an outside program would probably work best

but for me text is ideal
because everyone who uses mic sounds horribly distorted

then i'm always like "what?"

[shyGriff]

this has been requested 100000000 times
it is most likely not happening

[Grassy]

Alright lemme tell you why this is not gonna happen.
1. Kids. Now I'm not going against kids in Blockland, they found a building game, that's nice. BUT when kids get mad and stuff and they start raging they turn on their mics (Tf2, gmod, that stuff) and burn everyone's ears.
2. Mic spam. This is when someone puts something annoying on the mic and spam it over and over. Self explained.
3. T.R.O.L.L.S, what does that spell? Trolls. We all know what these friends do, flame someone till they piss themselves with rage and get them banned.
4. Badspot's Decision. He's gonna fail bin it, simple as.

The last one is really the only legitimate reason and it'd only apply to an add-on implementation.

[Lesrock]

just use skype or steam or whatever voip program that you use

[Setro]

perhaps Jail's.

User 1 voice chat: FREEKILL OMG HE FREEKILLED WTF

if you ever played jail break elsewhere, like in gmod or counter strike, you'd quickly find out how important voicechat is, since anyone who's a guard w/o a microphone would have to type to communicate, allowing prisoners to get an easy kill, right now its not a problem since for some reason almost every prisoner currently have a short attention span, but if we get more older players, it could be a big issue, not just for Jailrps but for tdms as well

skype/steam works great

but if you want to communicate with people in the same server that you don't know?

These are all bullstuff, it's the same thing as chat spam, just ban the offender.
And all those games have a mute function

That's exactly why an ingame solution would be awesome.

it's important as hell indeed

but they're mics suck
and sound like static

then they kill us for not listening to instructions

You obviously haven't been on a tf2 server with a troll and 3 kids.

Right, and that's every server.

You're really making a this more important than it needs to be.
