The Two Towers is an online multi-player game, and the greatest benefit
of being multi-player is that you can communicate with other players. We
offer many ways to communicate so that each player can fully express
themselves.
Communications to Players in the same Room
Say
The backbone of communications is the say command. Beyond just saying
the message to all in the room, the extended functionality on The Two Towers
allows you to designate your manner of speech - you can speak slowly, or
with remourse, or in any other method which you designate. You can speak
in the common language which all players understand, or the language
which your race was born with, or any language which you have learned.
Whisper
If you don't want everyone to hear, you can whisper a message just to
a single person. Keep your secrets, keep them safe.
Soul Emotes
Express yourself by describing your actions. Smile. Smile happily.
Smile like the cat who ate the canary. Fully immerse yourself in the
environment with as much or as little detail as you care to fill in.
The built-in "soul" provides hundreds of built-in actions that allow
you to express yourself.
Custom Emotes
If the built-in soul emote aren't expressive enough, you can make your
own with the emote command. Limited only to your imagination!
Communications to Players anywhere in the World
Tell
With the tell command, you can send a message instantly to any player
anywhere. Keep in constant contact with your friends and fellow
adventurers, even if you get separated!
Mail
The Two Towers has a mail system built-in. Register for a mailbox
in the town or city and you can send and receive mail to any other
player who also has a mailbox.
Communication Lines
Using a communication line, or comm for short, you can send a message
to an entire group of people at once. There are communication lines
set up for the free races, and another for the evil races. Each clan
and guild gets a private comm line as well. There is also a single
mudwide comm for discussing general out-of-character issues with the
entire community.
