yes but they already use the 10 numbers. Not sure how the devs would Implement it. Would be nice to have a no. Or maybe a "change position"; "front"; "behind"; "left"; "right"; callout for when inside vehicles.
A Tribes game interface with their 3 letter command would be awesome. I've used them a ton in Tribes and Legions. You can string commands together to form new things to say. It isn't too hard to learn over time surprisingly. If well crafted, a sentence can say one thing and a second word can finish it to define the meaning. They could implement it as a new currency unlock so people can interact in fun ways on Sanctuary, or those without mic can also speak in proximity.
Noteworthy idea for sure. But it might be prudent to add minimap functionality to those as well, so when someone says "follow me", this person is then marked on the minimap, maybe with a little XP bonus for things done in a 10m radius or something (not more than 5-10%, otherwise this would be heavily abusable; we would want an incentive for cooperation, not spam). Or when retreat command is given, that the current area around the one giving the order is marked.
Just give us back the voice command system Planetside used, it was basically Tribes' system. It was infinitely better than what we have now. The ability to call out whatever you wanted, whenever you wanted, instead of having to aim at one thing and press Q on it, was so much more valuable than what we have.
