Interesting little bits old but found

Bkdbear1991 passed this to me today, it coveres a few things we've been wondering about.

"One new addition to the series both in the online and offline modes are vehicles." Up to this point we haven't been sure if they were offline only.

"USB keyboards will be supported for PlayStation 2 players, and Sonic Team is trying to also get headset support in, but at this time they$B!G(Bre not guaranteeing anything." Hopefully the voice support is one of the reasons for the hold up.

Now our fear of rampant cussin' and perversion has come one step closer to being realized. Huzzah...At least I can yell at fools across the globe for their stupidity in a language they don't understand.

You're assuming that the regional servers will be linked. Unfortunately, there hasn't been any word about that yet.

Had to be a Killjoy, didn't ya?

I wonder how much Sega plans on getting these prehensiles involved. A bundle pack with headphones would be quite the surprise. It'd be unlikely addition but if Sega says they're as in it as they say, I wouldn't rule it out of the question.

The mic would be a good addition... if there's NO voice lag like in The XBox Ver... Ad no loud Jackasses in the lobbis blasting music.

voice chat = no thanks
ive never had a good experience with voice chat EVER

[zandra117]

I will be ok with voice chat as long as they make it proximity chat. Proximity chat is where only the people that are within a certain distance around your character can hear you. That way if someone is being annoying you could just walk out of their voice range. If they follow you you could just block their voice.

Well with the announcement of the Force10 thing and them teaming with Sega...maybe Servers will be linked because there WILL be a mass amount of JP players and (hopefully) US and EU players as well.

[Olskooldatru]

O trust me US we will have large amount on ppl.
