I don't normally resurrect dead threads but this one is quite special and having the ability to up-vote features I found a suggestion that someone else made that aligns with this thread. Whether this be for archival or bringing the discussion back the feature was suggested here: Ingame voicechat - Dual Universe

Glass full of Milo and little milk as well? (Good Luck _Axio_)

I mean why is the Empire Russia?, I would think Australian but I don't know what methods you have used.

I still don't think so, doesn't allow the information to move throughout the universe well enough, as well as align with points made by Warden. I just updated the original post with some of the common criticisms and solutions to them.

I don't think the load is an issue in terms of communication, it can be P2P if needed. I absolutely think its needed when it comes down to the scope of this game. As Warden states encounters are what will really bring the game to life and they must be developed to the full extent, a city cannot be alive unless there is suitable communication and a 3rd party service doesn't offer what is required, getting someone to log onto a 3rd party app and then join your server and all the steps required would simply take too long for it to be effective. A city cannot really operate unless information can flow through it, from hearing announcements, speeches, warnings, a local trader convincing you to buy something to a police officer asking for identification. Of course, this feature isn't required in the Alpha, Beta or even launch (although it would be nice), I would be happy to see it eventually become apart of the game.

I guess it would be expected of me to defend my own VOIP suggestion, But I do not see 3rd party apps conveying messages correctly, you cant have the experience that a VOIP system offers. On the idea for emotes though I think that would work incredibly well, dealing with people from multiple backgrounds can lead you to the basics of communication at times and a simple gesture can be an easy and effective way to tell a message. It could also be further integrated as gestures animated by the player, such as a wave or salute, making some incredible rallies possible.

Still wondering how NQ feels about this suggestion, I haven't read the replies in some time but it seems there is surprisingly a lot of support for the idea or at least the same idea but implemented in a different way. At this rate of development, it feels like a necessity for larger organisations.

This work is incredible, it's concise and to the points delivering a great read and providing a short and simple history.

Good luck, these types of things suck but they happen, wishing you all the best!

Welcome and good luck, I really agree with Zamarus the logo is amazing. Great work!

Please refrain from duplicating our topics, we already have one here: https://board.dualthegame.com/index.php?/topic/10937-the-empire/#entry47763

Amazing work, looking forward to the continued efforts of Evil inc, and the Dual universe Historical Society!
