Ok, None of you can disagree with putting a Legend Arena Radio Station! All of us could upload songs and it could just play random 24 hours a day, and of course you would have to tune into it. It wouldn't immediately start playing once you logged on, you would have to option to listen or not. Lets do it, I know all you SOB's would love it!!! =) So lets make a poll shall we?

i guess im down even though I just listen to my media player or slacker. its be cool to see what others upload to listen to. but there would have to be a max per person. otherwise youd ahve people tryin to upload their entire 2k song list.

You still haven't made me want to listen to your crappy music.

So much to be done to the game and you suggest this (face it) terrible idea. If you'd say maybe a PodCast with content along what Mhuahaha did with the LA News it would be good but what use is this? Absolutely none. What makes you think that the music you like will appeal to others? I don't want to waste bandwidth/space listening to your Hip-Hop or teen angst bullslap my bottom and call me sally music. And even if you've got a way to host/play music outside the game server I fail to see how this would fit with the mood of the game. Seriously, terrible idea.

What's wrong with listening to your own music in Winamp?

1st of all, i love the judgment on which music I/WE like, but its just a suggestion and i don't know if you know how to count but the votes sure seem to be going towards accepting the idea, these are just fun things to brighten up the gameplay. It wouldn't be very much bandwidth. for god sakes its a TEXT BASED GAME. I would like to hear some of the different cultural music because i know there is a lot of people from different parts of the world.

If you want to hear different cultural music then, go ahead and download some.
I'm certain that if something like this gets implemented it would be no more than crap music 24/7. Yes, I could chose not to listen but seriously, is this needed? No. Will it ever be needed? No. Would it make the gaming experience more positive? Hardly.

For the ones who want it, isnt it possible for an external radio station to be built on it?

I would personally welcome it. I mean it would be likely it would be hosted somewhere else. Plus it would be awesome to listen to something different for once.

there are better ideas that should be done before this

I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

That is a quite weak retort, please try harder next time.

Yes. Creating a ShoutCast radio is pretty simple. But listeners wouldn't be able to upload their songs, it would have to be a request based system (listeners request songs they want to hear and the one controlling the station downloads and plays them), it also needs a computer to be on 24/7 to broadcast it.


Also vanders, while you're at it why not create a LEGEND ARENA TV! Yay! HOW COOL IS THAT? PLAYERS UPLOAD THEIR VIDEOS AND AWESUM! WE ALREADY GOT THE NEWSPAPER SO THAT'S THE ONLY THING LEFT!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Stupid ideas are stupid.

I'm with Brithor. Music streaming takes up a massive amount of bandwidth for one thing, and we've not got to legality either. Not to mention a sheer lack of need. How long d'you spend on LA at a time? Ten minutes at most, if you've got a good chunk of stamina to use? You'd get maybe a track at most. If such an idea was EVER implemented, the default would HAVE to be off.

It would have to be a separate thing and not on the LA server as you must know why..We dont have the bandwidth to stream music to all the players let alone have the space to upload 30 megs a person..So if this was the case it could be a link that was added so your browser could open a shoutcast Or whatever..That would for sure give you the option of listening or not..I fear it would go the way of the chat or the DODO bird though as I agree I have no desire to learn what music you like...If you want people to know what songs you like post your favorite top 10 songs and if someone really wants to hear them he can open his own player and see if he has them..If he dont he most likely dont want them does he?

sounds good and all, but dont we have enough of a load on the servers without adding more to it? Wait until later in round to activate with your levels. Karmina Radio, get extra GC or stamina to log into it LOL

I actually agree with Brithor. I think it's stupid. If you want to listen to music, play it on the computer yourself. It's kind of pointless to put a radio in game when you can play your iPods and your MP3s and there's alls these websites you can play music like aol radio and even youtube. Waste of space
