Suggestion type
communication
Suggestion scope
survivors
Suggestion description
Very simple actually,if you have someone on your contact lists and you hear them over the radio you are able to recognize who is saying what,this would enable easier communication and actual chatting between players through the radio rather than calling out random crap through the radio.Don't shit me about realism and unrecognizable voices because of static.If UD was realistic we couldn't see people in the dark but in UD we magically can,!!!so you can suck it.....it would come out as 25.92 MHz: "Yes,Yes faster,faster please!!!yes....(1 hour ago) you recognize it as being the voice of your mother
