The Voice Game System (VGS) is the communication tool in development in Tribes 3: Rivals . As in past games, VGS is to coordinate attack, defenses, as well as jeer at the opponent. Using a series of simple keystrokes or directional inputs, a wide variety of information may be passed between players.
Two options for VGS are currently available: the Legacy VGS system based on prior games, and Standard system which uses a pop-up with four directional buttons. To use the VGS system, first type V to open the menu, then press the corresponding letters to launch into further submenus. Below are the keystrokes for all the commands available.
