If there is to be in-game radio then I demand a talk radio station hosted by Lazlow.

Who is totally TR by the way.

This thread reminds me of the time to tried EQ1 for a week. After already playing WoW, I wanted to go back and see why the EQ structure became the norm for MMOs. The graphics were horribly blocky, but the one thing I did like and made me scratch my head as to why no other MMO has done it since, was the fact that it had an in game MP3 player. Making it so I don't have to alt-tab every time I want to change some music would be great for PS2.

In a recent Higby interview (I forget which one), he joked around having a music player in vehicles so when the driver turns on music, everyone inside the vehicle hears it. I was screaming at the screen, "PLEASE DO THAT!!!". I'm normally the driver/pilot for my outfit's troop transports and plan on doing it in PS2. If I could turn on some Two Steps From Hell for my friends to listen to so they can get psyched up before going into battle, that would be awesome.

Add the entire soundtrack of games such as Drakengard 2, and the total war games and I wouldn't give a care who's faction radio it is.

I don't want to hear music - I want to hear the enemies footsteps aproaching. I want to hear my enemies weapon reloading, I want to hear the doors opening and closing so I know where my enemies are. This is a war game not a musical. I want to hear war. If for some stupid reason SOE wants to give you music lovers a radio station, I want a button to turn it off and tune it out. But if you NC and VS want to listen to music while I sneak up on you to slit your throat then by all means rock on.

As long as I dont have to listen to music of any sort, Ill be happy.

Only if Vanu can deploy a techno-light show.

Reminds me of playing Fallout. I like the idea of having player made stations. Maybe it's something they'll allow a mod for...

If they implemented a system like in Fallout it would be pure sex.

IDEA: SoE has their own neutral radio station run by a charismatic radio caster that would broadcast thematic news and updates to the game. Explain the changes in game by tying it to in game events. Brodcasts could be looped and start with that line.

For instance, Introducing new continents could be a news report reporting that a new continent has been found. Need to make some balance changes by buffing one faction weapon and nerfing another? Make a report on the one empire stealing tech or experimental designs from another.

Whenever I got into a marauder in ps1 I always expected to hear the beverley hillbillies or dukes of hazzard theme tunes every time, but never happened
