Using the Speaking Trumpet as a hearing aid

  • Sometimes when I'm trying to talk to another crew, their voices end up being very low, even with the game's sound settings maxed out. Using the system that writes on the screen often doesn't help, as the technology is good, but my language has a lot of commonly used slangs, so sometimes it's hard to understand what others say.

    My idea would be to use the speaking trumpet as a hearing aid. Instead of using it to speak quietly with another crew member, change this option to put it in the ear and be able to hear the sounds with a greater volume.

  • Really this would be fantastic, it would help a lot in the communication between players, I support this idea.

  • Do the others use the trumpet so you can hear them?

    Even if they use it often the sound is absurdly low if they are far enough away.

  • @targasbr I guess this could be a good alternative then.

  • I'd love this, it can be so hard understanding people when they're quiet even using the trumpet themselves. Mixing in different accents, etc. this would be great to have!

  • Trumpet to trumpet

    CAN YOU HEAR ME?

  • I do like this idea.

    Would be great for eavesdropping on other players too!

    How would they add a third functionality - LT currently puts the trumpet in whisper mode…

  • I have some friends that cant hear me... but hear all crew from my ship...
    .

    I dont understand why...
    .

    and most part of time people (newcomers) Harrasss over the gameplay... making Role Playing and community very sad to be.
    I Thank to all RARE support that could solve our Problems everytime!!!

    Targas.. i will not put the trumpet over my ear.. when i put it on my mouth!

    Love Love Love
    xD

  • What default key binding do you suggest?

    The same one we used to turn him around and speak quietly.

  • @ollieoxenfree holding both LT and RT?

  • genius!!

  • I like the idea, but don't want to lose the whisper function - I like the LT+RT idea - LT is used as a modifier with the weapons, so it makes sense concept-wise.

    My only concern is if someone uses it hear while another person uses it to speak loudly to them - it would double the volume.

    So, in order (softest to loudest):
    [1] No sound
    [2] Whisper
    [3] Whisper w/hearing trumpet
    [4] Normal voice
    [5] Normal voice w/hearing trumpet
    [6] Loud voice
    [7] Loud voice w/hearing trumpet
    [8] "Your supplies must be dwindling by now!"

    I thought about replacing the speak quietly option myself, but having a third option holding both buttons is a great idea.
