Are captain announcements text or voice?

Post by BeeSting12 » #360251

If they're text, then netspeak or emojis would be acceptable. If not, then that would obviously be OOC in IC.

I've always assumed they were text since Centcomm announcements are similar and they're printed out. Plus, they're sent to newscasters and can be printed out at newscasters making me think that they're text. Obviously this thread applies to AI announcements, head desk announcements, and any other similar ones.

I personally always thought they were spoken as per the ogg files and music files that depict the captain's announcements as spoken. Additionally, you don't usually "announce" stuff on a text medium to an entire station. Still, I guess it does show up on the newscasters. I'm just not 100% sure since I used a different note as precedent.

I've always assumed console announcements, captain announcements, and centcom announcements were all spoken with written transcripts sent to newscasters and communications consoles if applicable.

They're voice, haven't you heard the recordings? How can they be text? They don't go to your PDA, that right side of the screen is "text" but it's always been "voice"...

They also go to newscasters, which is what made me think they're text.

Captain types the text of the message on the computer, he doesn't actually speak in a mic or record his own voice. Text-to-speech software broadcasts it over the radio. A text copy is also sent to newscasters. This is why anyone can use the console as long as it's unlocked and no one would be able to tell it's not the captain making the announcement.

This means that you can use netspeak or emojis but people will hear them spelled out by the text-to-speech voice. E.g. if you write "I love you crew <3" people will hear "I love you crew less than three". Of course, people in the 26th century are used to this so they instanly recognize spelled out symbols and emojis, and that's why the announcement is displayed in the chat window as the captain meant it, instead of what you are actually hearing.

You know what also appears in that chat? Emotes! But wait, maybe people are smart enough to know that you literally can't say "its text" when everything is text based feedback in this game and we know certain things are supposed to voice. It's an announcement for god's sake. I feel like you don't even believe yourself, you just want to argue for the sake of arguing.

Yes but that's Centcomm reports/announcements. We are more discussing Captain announcements etc.

My view of it is that no matter how or why it's transmitted/sent it should be assumed to be in voice not in text terms. And so using netspeak should not be allowed as per regular chat. I believe we've already had one headmin state this.
So uhh, I'm an admin. Please leave feedback! Oops took me a while to strike that through.

It's different if it's text2speech, which obviously is since you can't tell who is making the announcement. Distasteful and unfunny, sure, but not OOC in IC.

OOC in IC means immersion-breaking. It means something that makes you realize you're playing a character in a game. PA systems across the world have been using text2speech software since forever. Imagine someone inputting emojis in those, yes it would read out as you said, yes it would be amusing and weird. Would it make you question your own reality? I don't think so.

If you visualize the Captain's Announcement as a synthetic voice reading out a text message, you realize it's not OOC in IC to hear "Hello crew ecks dee"

If the captain announcements are voice then you would be able to tell who is speaking, which is not the case as it only states it as an announcement. In the case that a traitor stole the captain's ID and made an announcement, people would just think it's the captain because there is no voice to listen to -- informing them that it is a different person speaking.
