Soundproof Walls

An obvious reason for these would be to keep noise out cause sometimes outside noises can get annoying but maybe you don't want to turn your sound off, but what if they were also used for keeping people from seeing what you are typing. For example you and someone else could be in a soundproof room disallowing others from seeing what you are talking about.

Edit : Just realized another good use would be for playing instruments so that unwanted sounds stay out

Edit : Ya maybe chat would be to much considering there is a whisper feature. I didn't realize that but anyways glad to see you agree with the more conventional way of use.

maybe just a device you put in a room to make it soundproof would be enough

 

Well mobs that camp outside my house do get annoying..... Im all for it!

 

well the soundproof to block chat is nice, so you can discuss things in private without chatdroppers (not eavesdroppers lol, its all about the chat)

 

I support this. As i want to make a strict roleplay server i'd like to be able to seperate chats : someone inside a building won't be able to listen to someone inside it, this would be not logic. Same happens to visibility but this is another subject.

 

As a musician, I approve of the use of soundproof practice rooms!

Perhaps even allow for certain degrees of soundproofing based on several factors (i.e. distance from the soundproofing, how many layers of soundproofing the wall has).

 

I like the idea

 

I'm strictly for the idea blocking chat messages. In the end, what we type is what our PCs are saying. And something you say makes a noise, a sound. So soundproof walls would hinder you reading messages, if you are not in that same room. Maybe standing close to that room would let appear the chat boxes with small letters in it, whereas the boxes would be empty. Y'know. That way you know that someones talking, but you don't know what. ^^ *upvote*

 

I like the idea, but they should only block sound, not messages. It wouldn't be fun if someone you were playing with was being mauled by chickens desperately seeking backup while you were just jamming out on the guitar.

 

Sounds like a pretty good Idea actually.. I like it

 

To be honest, that's pretty original idea for 2D game. I like it, I hope it'll be realized.

 

I really like this idea!
Personally, I'd go for diffrent kinds of soundproofing walls. like one kind that takes out background noise, so you'd just hear people talking,
Or one that blocks out people talking, so you could focus on listing to what's around you! Also, sound proofing of dffrent grades, allowing for better noise reduction! Since your average soundproof room doesn't 100% negate all noise, an explosion would still be heard, so you'd get better soundproofing!

Or what about a Banshee-like monster! it's scream gives you a status defbuff, so if you have a home on that world, you gotta have soundproof walling, to avoid getting a debuff in your home!

 

they need to remove shared sight first before they apply bullet poof walls

 

I agree. Although I was thinking if they were to add this they could make an option that you could check off that would enable soundproofing for messages. That way you could choose if you wanted it that way or not. I think it would make for a really dynamic feel in servers that just have random people getting on them. Maybe an rpg style server. Plus it would be cool to use for like a pvp game like capture the flag or deathmatch. I think the sp walls would really be cool if implemented in the right way.
