Mumble Overlay ala PR 1.0 and Local key preference

Heskey · 2013-07-15, 14:43

Hey all,

Just on my way home ahead of a full evening of PR!

Is there anyway to get a name overlay of Mumble talkers ingame like in PR 1.0b?

Also, what key do you guys use to talk to your squad, and local?

I've been using V to talk to squad, like my old VoIP key, and a thumb button on my mouse for local, but I'm thinking of switching them over tonight as you should use local in a fire fight, and not having to hold down a mouse button whilst moving it round to shoot people should make firefights easier.

Might unbind B tonight also, my PR commander key. Servers disabling voip and forcing mumble is the way forward (from a previous mumble skeptic!)

I switched from using two buttons on my mouse to F for local and V for squad. It doesn't feel quite right yet, but it's better than having to lose a firefight because your grip on the mouse is bad.

C for local, Alt for squad.

I use C for cycle view (mounted weapon zoom) and F for map (handy for on the fly orientation)

I do think mouse binds are to be avoided as you say... Might just just V local and B squad then, that'd sort it!

That's what I do. V local, B squad. Mainly because I'm too lazy to remember new keybinds and V and B already used to be VoIP keys anyway.

B can be a bitch to reach though.

Heskey · 2013-07-15, 15:56

In a pinch though, you're pressing V to speak locally, and only local people can help you when the fire goes down. When a situation is more relaxed, i.e. separated by spawn and requesting orders, you can stretch your index to B.

Sorted!

The overlay question is outstanding though.

i use V for local and Alt for squad chat, works like a dream.

I use alt for local and the left windows button for squad. I cant imagine playing any other way.

I prefer C for squad chat, and V for local. Sometimes C messes me up if I'm gunning or what not, but I'm usually just INF.
