Are you going to use the voicechat device they showed at E3?

That is something that we talked about. I don't know if we're going to use it or not. It's one of those things where it's so new and we're at the point in the project where we need to know what we have to play with. I think we have already established that we probably won't be doing the 1:1 ratio. It was at E3 when they announced that, and it was at that point where we were already too far into the project to retrofit it.

I thought wii speak would be combatable with the conduit! This can't be true.

I remember reading a not-so-long-ago article that voice chat would be in The Conduit.....I hope I remember correctly :)

Too bad Nintendo couldn't have added support for bluetooth headsets.

I'm betting once WiiSpeak is released we'll get third party headsets that use the same technology.

If you have online with any modes other than Deathmatch, you need voice chat. Voice chat for online games should have been a requirement since 2002.

I thought they said they were using some type of voice chat though. Still, I don't really care either way, I'm not impressed by this game, not yet at least.

This just proves that even when 3rd party developers say that a game will do awsome things that they always chicken out at the end. Regardless it will probably still be good.

Well, he kind of contradicted himself.

Right now, we're still getting it networking. We're still seeing what our limits are in terms of environment sizes and weapon sets and how many players we can get in there. It's still early, early on the multiplayer. We're just now wrapping up the single-player. We have a whole (different) cycle for (the multiplayer).Article


Why would the need to "retrofit" something they've just started?

Why would the need to "retrofit" something they've just started?

They would need to rewrite the engine the game runs on. Meaning that their approved engine would need to go through all the checks and balances it did before, just with the 1 foot space algorythm replaced by the full-body code.

And if Nintendo didn't provide them with full-body code, it would take 2-3 weeks researching to develop the data to even make the code usable. It would be another few months to make the code fun. That would push the winter 09 window to a summer 09 slot, which would be death for the timing of summer blockbuster action movies.

That really reacks... They promised voice chat... And now they might take it away... thats bs... Even though my online doesn't work... I'll repair it before the game comes out... And all get voice chat... But if they take it away... That will totally suck... I will still buy the game thought...

I thought it was confirmed that the Conduit would indeed use WiiSpeak? I know I read that somewhere. That's why I was thinking Nintendo was publishing it since it was the first game to use it besides Animal Crossing.

i can answer that question for him. it just docent appeal to him like COD4 or halo games does to him. the game is very low standard for him and he feels that the graphics lack art. in my hand, i think the game looks really good and feel that with or without voice chat the game will be successful.

Halo 3 had very bad graphics for an xbox360 game but hey at least the water look real.

Halo 3 had very good art, so all is forgiven....all i ask is that the conduit devs put some effort into the art..i would gladly buy it, if that happened
