Whisper sound signalisation

In times when I was playing Quake there was very comfortable sound signalisation when someone typed something.

Usaly I miss whispers because I don't want to mute some "channels" in towns/outpost... I know that many of my friends don't notice that someone wispered them too, flood isn't a good solution :/
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"
"Join TS xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server is up"

I think that it could be usefull to add sound to whisper, team and guild
very gentle, short, but noticeable sound.

I could see a twinkle sound effect going in. I'd use it.

Totally agree. An optional audible feedback on party, guild and whispers messages would be nice

Agree. An optional sound for whispers from other players

especially for the team channel during a mission if you need to get a message accross, i know that my team doesn't always see something in the heat of battle

I totally agree, the biggest problem is that every one of my friends miss my tells because they just don't see them. A very subtle "pop" or "beep" would be perfect.

Another option i think would be great is to have team channel word bubbles. So when you are in town or out fighting you can use the team chat and have the bubbles appear but only for those in the team. No one else would be able to see the bubbles because they aren't in the team.

What do you all think about that? I also would like the word bubbles to show everything that is said. Instead of the first 5 or 6 words. These are minor fix's but would help improve the gameplay. Thanks.
