General Chat
Talk in the third person.
Use the “Hey [You], this is [Me]...” format if you're talking to someone for the first time. Once you have their attention, you can speak normally.
- “Hey DJ, this is Mil, do you need a turret gunner?”
- "Spartan, this is S7, I have a railgun in this red crate if you want it.”
If you’re talking to everyone or no one in particular, just use “This is [Me]...” format.
- “This is Apollo, I have two extra seats if anyone needs a ride.”
- “This is Mil_freak, I’m incap. Can I get a revive?”
General callouts
If you’ve spotted an enemy, or are taking fire, use the Three D’s (Distance, Direction, and Description) on foot or BRAA (Bearing, Range, Aspect, Altitude) in space to help others locate them/you.
On foot:
- “This is Mil_freak, contact north west, 100 meters, 2 Nine tails.”
- “This is Goliath, taking fire from an Aurora on my tail, just outside of PO.”
In Space:
- "This is S7, have an A2 inbound from 270 degrees, 34km out, 1km high."
- "This is Coyote, Scorpius at 175 degrees, 2km out, below us."
