RE: [Suggestion] Game immersion...

The problem with peripherals is that people want to succeed, and if they know that the monster can hear you on a mic, they're going to add an element of muting/muffling the mic to gain an immersion-breaking out-of-game advantage.

EDIT: just like they used and abused the pause/menu button to collect themselves when shocked and scared.

Frictional always ignores these posts

Do they?

I agree. I really don't think they do. They seem fairly involved in these forums.

True, but that's more a player problem that's just going to take self discipline.

Or you'll just embarrass yourself more than you already have. When all the posters in a thread are against you, that's a sign it's time to leave quietly. I won't do anything to you, except warn you that you're risking any last shred of dignity you still possess.

RE: [Suggestion] Game immersion...

there is a bad atmosphere on this tread, please remain calm and keep the coolitude of amnesia forums ! I'm counting on each of you ^^

and for the author : are you realising that you are suggesting something about immersion to immersion masters ? no, jocking, your ideas are great, but a studio can't accept people's ideas, exept if they are mentionned in the credits of course Wink

That's the wrong approach to take. It's a legal requirement to not respond to suggestions for a commercial product, otherwise they'd be liable for legal action. Anything to which they respond, they would have to then go out of their way to NOT implement to protect their company, because then that person would either have to sign legal waivers, because people own their own ideas.

I'm saying that what you most want from a company is for them to avoid posting/replying to your or any suggestion thread.

RE: [Suggestion] Game immersion...

Great idea, but the only problem is that what if the microphone has that kind of buzzing noise in the backround? It would then pick it up and broadcast it though the game, you would be making nonstop sounds. And on the other hand, your friend might just want to be a dick and yell "HEY MONSTERS! OVER HERE!" while your playing Big Grin

I hate to sound like an ass, but that's utterly stupid and lacking any logical bearing.
