The Letter W Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 There is very simple idea. When Wes is supposed to say something, he will do his typical pantomime bt the text will appear.Just think about all those cartoon characters that say only one word and everybody else understands them. It could work here like that as well. For ex. Wes meets Wilson and wants to ask for some food. After typing message Wilson will see Wes pulling invisible rope and text above him like: "Could you share some food?". Simple, isn't it? However to make things harder for him everything he says would act like whispering (which means everything he says is only visible to players on screen). Who would see his pantomime on the other end of the world anyway? I figured the Whisper sort of text only would work, as then he can still talk but it remains that the other players would be "interpreting" his pantomiming as they have to be able to see him to read the text.

Soar Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I propose a morse-code system. Invisible box for 1, Rope pulling for 0. The remaining actions would be for vital things like warnings. Time to learn morse-code then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could always just be handwaved as Wes communicating through pantomime, which all of the other characters are somehow able to understand perfectly all the time. "Ahhh hell, it's him" "Yeah, another [CENSORED] game of Charades!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNaxeros Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Wes forever alone. Well... He is meant to be harder and so he must be less cooperative than other characters, am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
