aitor Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Looks great guys Would be nice to hear some ambient sound, car honks, people, general city noises, and maybe sometimes at the ground the sound of a siren.Btw, the voice will be ingame or it is just for the video, would be great to hear it ingame And Times Square, is great!!! but needs it's typical hustle...

rettungstier Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 The sirens are great, but I don't like the lights I don't know why this is the closest to "real" that i could get 'em if you're too far away it seems to glow too much, if you zoom in you'll see the rotary effect.if i'd reduce the "glow" you would see too much of the single coronas.so this was just a compromise but of course it'll stay a w.i.p. even if the mod is released. i might find a better solution...anyway, i like 'em greetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwpirate Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 So, the unit confirmations ("It's Okay", "Central, I'm 10-51...") are a hodgepodge of generic UK and Los Angeles accents; will there eventually be a switch to either pre-recorded chatter from a live dispatch, or voice acting? It's been a while since I've heard a lot of FDNY chatter, so I'm not sure what they use, but where I'm from (6hrs from NYC), our chatter would be things like "Responding", "In Service, Returning to Quarters" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtmdragon Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Great work guys I’ve been watching this mod evolve and develop while plenty of other mods have fallen by the wayside, I can’t imagine the time and effort you all must be putting into it. I hope the server doesn’t crash with all the downloading when you finally release it! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FDNY Squad 55 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Rotary lights, they rotate, without any explanations nothing we can really do haha, I think they look awesome! hahaWhen I said I'm not sure if I like the lights I had in mind that most of the time the camera was close up and consequently the lights merged and enlarged. Do not take my comments as criticism.Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PD-Freak Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Just a question but in the other videos the buttons that bring up the units had fdny or nypd on them but not this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakethejake Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I'm going to be constructive here, so don't kill me. First. The map, buildings, and vehicles look great. Nice job. The sounds are not so good in my opinion. Of the mods that I have played, I still think that the LA Mod has the best siren and air horn files. I would rather that you copy those than use what was shown in the video. Also the dispatching. I would rather have the British dude than the computer sounding guy. But surely you can get someone to do a voice over that is more realistic. If not, contact me, and I will try to help out. Also, I realize that you guys are not going to put a lot of traffic in this mod. But the streets do need to have a ton of parked cars on them. After all, it is NYC! At no time are their streets empty.I know you guys are releasing soon, but I would wait and tweak these things. I also would not use the aerialscope as an engine company! With MW3, Battlefield 3 and a whole host of other games out there, I think that the "fall" release date can be tweaked without too much complaining. If you need more realistic siren and air horn files, I may be able to get you some. I definitely have the access, but converting them is another issue. Anyway, this is just my $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd15 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I don't really like the siren either. FDNY uses more of an electronic siren, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camhesse1 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I on the other hand, am ok with the sirens... thats not the part that i really fully care about... i really like how you got the engine to really back into the station... i have seen any stations that worked with just the front door, and backing up into it.... it just goes in straight lol. i want to figure out how to do that script? can you help me maybe?

rafaelmfernandez Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 these obviously arent the final sirens , we know what were doing. We realize what we need to do with sounds and ambience especially. With the traffic you havent seen anything. Theres more than enough parked cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 The video is more a demo of gameplay, saying this is how it's going to be, obviously there's things people will and wont like. The sirens aren't final (although I plan to use them for my private version cos Qs rock haha) but yeah the siren was more a demo of what I plan to do, the siren has startup tones before wailing, will be the same in the Eq2b version .As for parked cars and traffic. Again everything we do is a compromise between gameplay and realism. Having too many parked cars ruins traffic scripts and blacks up roads making it harder for emergency vehicles to overtake (even with firelanes haha) so there are still a lot of parked cars (but mainly on side streets) whereas all the action of yesterdays video was shot on hightstreets . As for the traffic, it's hard to explain but I'll say yes, after playing for a while there is plenty of traffic, but not too much as when you block a road the street isn't instantly filled haha.Hope this answers a lot of questions, and please (I'm trying to be friendly about it hha) don't give us 'advice' on release dates. Is kinda patronizing being told 'oh you guys shouldn't rush in' or whatever We know when we are ready, we will release when ready Dysonx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wkboy714 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 People shouldn't worry about sounds, as they can be easily replaced I loved the video, the lights were good. Shame there were no police calls though. I can't wait Are there going to be "call (unit)" commands like in LA mod? Didn't see them used in the video. And therell be a police patrol option?

EmC-Unit Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 No neeed to mentiong that your work is stuning and amazingMost i like radio near the baseGot a small suggestion - you could change window with dispatch system with a radio speaker (something like this) and add some static so thats a radio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrol will be added, currently is not, one of the details left to add Edit - @EMCunit I agree, static would be nice, however those vids take agessss to make haha, so will re-do the vids once the mod is done, but will release these ones at the same time as the mod (they are optional btw haha) P.s. thanks for your praise, always nice to have praise from other developers Edit 2 - @Cadetforce, I may do yeah, although I would prefer to have one host, cos' I love getting filefront up (the previous server) and checking how many downloads :') but we'll see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
