I did a quick search and didn't see much towards this, but I was wondering if RO2 has or will have some voice messages automated like when you're running low on ammo or completely out of ammo.
I know in RO:CA and RO:Ost you had a voice command you could hit to request ammo from other team mates, but during heavy combat it's sometimes difficult to send out that message, especially if you're trying to run for cover because you have nothing to fight back with.
Typically when someone in battle is running low on ammo or ran out, you'd hear them shout out that they are and someone would come over and drop/hand them a mag or some bullets/grenade, etc. Would it make sense that when you're getting low, your character would just shout out "I'm running low on ammo" and/or "I'm out of ammo!"..... with possibly an icon over head (or not) showing your team who's the one needing ammo?
I know in Killing Floor, when you reload, your character tells other players that you are.... could something similar be done with needing ammo?
I don't think automatic call outs would be needed for everything, but for needing ammo, it could certainly help out the continued flow of gameplay without having to stop and hit a few buttons to call out..... and it would certainly benefit machine gunners the most.
Thoughts?
I do see a possible problem of it giving away your position sometimes, so maybe it might not be very practical in that respect, but I think overall, it'd be a good benefit.
I also know that in the previous RO's, resupplying MG's would give you an extra point, perhaps the same thing could be done for resupplying other team mates, but only when they are actually low or completely out of ammo, so that someone can't just unload a clip and then get a point for one clip resupply..... say only when you're down to one or half a clip of ammo.
It'd not only give people incentive to resupply their team but also keep their team in the game without having to run around clubbing people with their rifles, etc.
