Cloofter Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 How do you communicate on TMP? With the CB/Voice or the old fashioned typing? x The correct Discussion title should be "How do you communicate to other truckers? Voice or old fashioned typing!?" x Since May 2015.

Millennium1001 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 When someone approches me in text I'm answering in text, when someone approches me in CB I answer in CB. But when I approach someone I always use text, this is why I also voted for this option Why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazvanRO15 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I speak both in the text and in the voice, it depends which is faster. Discord Group My Discord: Razvan#4428 Steam Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum. Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I never ever use CB radio for general driving, always use text. The only time I ever used CB radio was when I was managing big events, it is much more effective to use CB instead of text in that situation.

P h o e n i x Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 The CB radio is way too easily abused, so I avoid it entirely 99% of the time I usually keep my CB on channel 16 because its a usually clear channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Tea Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm using both. I'm writing in the chat and speaking in the cb. But when I've been activated the cb, im not in channel 19. In channel 19(the standard channel), are the most abusing players. These sounds are not good for your ears, when they are screaming or whatever^^.  It's better to change the channel, or deactivate the cb funk complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SammyCat Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I prefer typing before speaking on the CB unless really needed. I tend to mute the CB when people are shouting down the CB because it gets irritating after a while.

Koneko Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I stopped using CB a while ago, it's rare that I use it. Most people are just toxic and screaming around, even on other cb channels, sad to see it abused like that... but the chat is still an good alternative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[WT] Bingo [CH] Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 In general i prefer the chat to communicate since I've made the experience that most people have the chat enabled so if you want to contact them your chance to get an answer is pretty high. As other users already mentioned many people turn off their CB because of users abusing the CB. I changed my CB to standard Channel 9. Mostly I encounter german people there since in Germany Channel 9 is the official CB-Radio Channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polyxena Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 For the fact that I am a keyboard driver as well I use the cb radio channel. Like @[WT] Bingo [CH] I also use channel 9. I love adding a little bit roleplay into ET2 so the cb radio is kinda must have for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolts Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I muted my CB because whenever i use it there is someone always screaming down it in some foreign language. so i use the traditional chat haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phon Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I have CB on normally but only to listen, not to speak. I used to do a lot of CC so it's useful to hear participants reporting collisions and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylаn Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I don't personally use the CB and always have it muted as people scream and play music down it (abusing it) and it gets annoying. It's a good thing to have and some peoples in VTC's or convoys find it helpful to communicate with others. I always use text chat as I know the message will be seen and just easier to use without problems.

Courtz49 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 i type and use cb depending on whether their in the same cb channel as me. I find the CB really useful in some cases Steam | TruckersMP Profile | Twitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Night Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 The CB has its uses, and sometimes you can actually have a good conversation on the CB too. it could do with more than 20 channels as the real life CB has 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The B3AST Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 For me, it really depends on the situation. If I see someone I know or if someone says something to me directly, I'll respond via CB. But normally, I just use chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
