It's got the potential to be a good idea but those current voices just don't really work sadly.

Its something different at least. What and because this doesn't satisfy your opinion of a story that it can't be a story? So you want a whole new section of the forum set up just for him because you don't think it is a story?

Who's the melon now?

You are, if you describe the use of that Sky Sports News reporter set-up as a story.

Wow. It's something different. It doesn't necessarily make it a good idea for this because it's rarely been used. And no, I'm not suggesting we set up a new section - I'm suggesting that although he tried, this isn't the way to go on improving 'stories'. This will simply keep them at the incredibly low standard that they are now.

Don't reply unless you have something productive to say - You have your ridiculous opinion and I have mine.
 
If you had a story where Stephen Hawking became manager this technology could be used to awesome effect! ;)

Your opinion is the ridiculous one - I think you'll see that everyone who has posted thinks it is a good idea and you're the only one being negative, we are all just trying to help him get it right and you're jsut criticising him.

Just stop posting now unless you're actually trying to help.
 
OKay guys tried the highlight idea, its really sketchy, needs work, but it could work i have done almost everything i can so i guess ill just have to record my own voice and just change it up to make skysports mans voice diffrent, and commentator and last manager:

You keep disregarding the main issue. I will break the problem up into simple sentences so you can keep up:

To be a good, appreciated story on the forum, it must have description. Not just transfer information and 'this manager has taken over here'. It should contain a deep and engaging backstory.

Now do you really think that can be gained from editing a still frame of a Sky Sports Broadcast? It's simply not a possible task as this can only get across the opinion of the News Reporter.

When people read the stories, we want to empathise with the main character of the story - and this is done through detail in words and actions that cannot be shown in this set-up.

Do you understand where I am coming from now? This isn't a good idea for a story. It's a good idea for a News feed.

Didn't it occur to you that you can use both?
 
i think text will always win as it helps you use your imagination and makes it feel more realistic and less of a game

That's what I'm saying though, using this in your story won't improve it. Doesn't matter if you slap a bit of text with it.

When writing stories, people should concentrate solely on the depth in their text, that is the important part. Though I can't be asked to argue with you. It's simply terrible and although LGFIRE had a good idea, it just wouldn't be sufficient for a story in my opinion. But meh, I'm sure nobody cares if I want to read their stuff or not.

What i ment with Revo.. stories was to add technology and just make it more intresting, its not set to tell the whole story. Thats were the person becomes more creative and adds newspapers talking about the main character ect. but i see what you mean it isnt sufficient for a story, and i agree its not, its just to add a "relistic" touch :) <3
 
Okay, now ive done a simple press-confrence, and thanks to mike atleast atm ive been able to put a better female voice, i will try to get a better male voice and it will seem better so heres the Video:

Now im missing Skysports graphical features, anything else i could add to these ideas?
 
Last one was good mate, I think I'm going to trial run it in my story.
 
No-one will ever use this in there story, it's just too much, just stick to normal stories.

Yes, in my opinion, sorry I don't agree with you, like everyone should.
