Speech recognition UI

[dasquared]

And should this be moved to "General Discussions"?

[Rozak]

NO. PLEASE GOD NO. NO!
DON'T COPY ENDWAR ON THIS. They were the first RTS to NAIL this, let's not leech.

sounds interesting, but I never played a game with speech recognition...

could be good but could also destroy a good game...

Sounds cumbersome and unpredictable. Mouse and keyboard are precise and quick, I can't see voice commands actually being better. I guess I don't see a problem with optional ones, but I suspect it would mostly put someone at a disadvantage to rely on them.

[Rozak]

Well, I take that back. Wouldn't be too bad for the Mass commander, one problem is your only commanding one unit so you could say "Company Alpha, move to LZ Primary" and it could do that. :P

Examples
"Company Bravo, capture LZ Forward"
"Company Charlie, move to Shadow Revolution base"
"Company Alpha, capture Critical Location" (Dialogue stolen from Dawn of War: SoulStorm )
