If someone says "Move ******!", I will cry if the character doesn't promptly bend down, pick up a few sticks, tie them together and move them.wooty said:
Call of Duty: Ghosts Will Feature Kinect Voice Commands
- Thread starter Cognimancer
- Start date
Well, with all the focus on sports on the Xbone reveal, I think they are drawing inspiration from that area. Although that would be a bad idea, as trying to voice-command a sports broadcast have a rate of effectiveness just barely above that of videogames.Worgen said:
Is there an explanation on why Kinect is required and not just a headset? Did they really put a whole dog gimmick in the game just to promote Kinect?
Because MS believes that it can't get anymore immersive than arguing with your HDTV as if it were a real person that just insulted your mother.Worgen said:
Now there's an idea for the ultimate collector's edition: your very own attack dog!ciasteczkowyp said:
Who needs some lame figurine when you can sic your irate canine onto unsuspecting pedestrians? "Go, fetch the balls!"
Well, I'll admit that, with good voice recognition, controlling your dog squadmate with voice is probably a lot better than trying to do it with a controller while being shot at.
Of course, it would be better still if you just didn't have a dog squadmate. Or any squadmates you had to micromanage. Because it's not an RTS.

While I couldn't be less interested in taking advantage of this, it is interesting to point out that a lot of people do enjoy shouting while playing Call of Doodie (aaah, that was beneath me...) but that's in multiplayer. It'll be good market research (that will likely go over their heads anyway) if people still don't like using the voice commands in the single player, just because they are not talking to anyone real.
Well MS shot itself in the foot making a TiVO with DRM console and I guess Activision is shooting the other foot with this nonsensical crap that wouldn't even work as a gimmick on the Wii.
I'm calling it now. This is going to suffer the same issue all other voice command systems suffer, not everyone is going to speak in a "pleasing North American accent".

Some people are just plain going to be difficult to understand, and not only because of accents or speech impediments or what have you, and that's especially going to be a problem if you're speaking in a situation where loud gunfire is emanating from the speakers and you're speaking as quickly as possible because saying a command generally takes longer than pressing a button.
I mean, I'm a very softly-accented Australian, and I could still never get my voice commands to work on SOCOM years ago.
Terrible. Maybe this appeals to some people but I don't want to have to bark commands at my console.
We are a point graphically, and we have been since the current generation of consoles, where animations are MUCH more important that poly count or details like arm hair. How that hair moves, sure, that is important. How natural someone's gait is, clipping issues, collision issues, these become much more important than adding 30% more polygons to a model. Hopefully that is something that will be improved with new development tools in the next generation.Dr.Awkward said:

My Kiwi accent problem is too far gone. I sound like a god damned Robot and voice commands still don't work a shit.badgersprite said:
Please make it happen. That would be incredible. I would adopt a dog, just for that.ritchards said:

Of course it will. Just like it did with Steel Battalion.
