[Sco]

What taunts and threats would you llike to hear in game? - I would love to hear something like http://youtu.be/OHKDRXdxa3I

Lot's of good stuff on this listed here ---> Additional voice macros (http://www.planetside-universe.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37349&highlight=voice+macro)

Ahh cool, good thread - maybe its not just what is said, but how it is said - big gruff scottish voice - need more of that!! :)

taunts are for kiddies, what's the point?

PS1 was had quite a few taunts etc. I was thinking PS2 will no doubt have some - whether they are for "kiddies" or not is irrelevant - thats my point.

I really hope PS2 doesn't become a jokefest with taunts and voiceovers that you can buy in the store, similar to TF2, HoN and Battlefield Heroes.

I fear f2p games for this very reason. Customization is a good thing, but there is a fine line, when crossed can ruin the integrity of the game.

Thing is, they're going to put that stuff in there simply because it sells. I absolutely DO NOT want a cash shop for this reason. In TF2, fine, it's a goofy cartoonish game, that crap fits in there. I'd bet my bottom dollar that they will put in capes, death effects, unfitting emotes, mounts, and more. It may take a month, it may take years, but I bet it'll happen. I can't explain it right but PS2 feels like a "serious" game, and they don't just buy sweet camo upgrades and XP potions from a grocery store in the middle of Auraxis.

Hey, we're blessed with one of the few games that allows cross-faction communication. Send your own taunts and threats.

[Sco]

I guess you are right Vancha, with cross faction chat people can do as they like - i just made the assumption that there would be something similar to PS1 - perhaps clarification as to what will actually be in the game should have been my first question before making an assumption.

I don't really think any extra taunts are needed outside of what we had. But since where all getting to pick what we would want to hear. Just for fun I'll take some Duke Nukem please. :rofl:

10. Take that, you dirty rat! 9. Ooh, that's gotta hurt 8. I'm gonna get medieval on your asses! 7. Eat @#$% and die! 6. Suck it down! 5. I ought break a broom handle off in your ass! 4. Heh, heh, heh... what a mess! 3. Blow it out your ass! 2. Let God sort 'em out! 1. Your face, your ass, what's the difference?

Could you imagine running full speed into a group of TR or VS yelling "I'm gonna go Medieval on your asses!! in your best Duke Nukem voice. lol and give me the cigar in the item shop for the added lawls

Yes I'm just kidding about all this. but it would be funny.

Would be sweet to have this taunt in PS2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ7z5CUsrbk

Oh don't get me wrong, we may well end up with voice commands again and I'm sure if taunts are part of those there'll be people who delight in spamming them repeatedly every time they kill someone, but it just seems a waste to use them when you can send something so much more imaginative.

[Espion]

PS2 needs more voice macros that can be heard by enemies. The VV menu just wasn't enough :(
