Russian System Sounds and Sounds
« on: April 16, 2013, 01:15:25 PM »
Hi!

Just to make a small suggestion here.

When I played EF, I noticed that there is not a lot sound or speeches found in Russian Units, except on the gunfire and some speech volume which is quite smaller in terms of voice if compared to the others in the same sound setting.

Is it possible to add or change a few things:
1. Add the system sound when a unit is lost like "our unit has fallen to the fatherland", "unit down", "we are receiving casualties" for the original Tales of Valor,
2. Add the system sound when the enemy unit capturing sector/ sector that has cut out from supplies like "the yankees are capturing a sector", "the jerrys are capturing one of our sectors",
3. Adjust a bit for the system sound so that no need to increase the volume when playing as Russians (it seems that the voice setting for Russians are a bit lower compared to the original units)
4. Change the Russian speech to English + Russian like the German armies like "Crew! Achtung!"
5. (Maybe) if it is possible add a few speeches like "under fire", "XXX is taking hit"

I see that there are a few topics that barely talks about that and hopefully this can be taken into account when the new version is out :>

What I wanted to suggest regarding the sounds was, and I have no idea of even whether this is at all possible, but take the voices from coh2 and apply it to the mod? That would take away the russian language and enable us to hear the comments like artillery incoming etc...

Go play COH2 if you want bad Russian and German accents.

I don't think Relic would appreciate us ripping shit from their new game. Besides, the voice acting in CoH2 is just plain disappointing, doing our own voices isn't totally out of the question but would require a hell of a lot of work.

I haven't played coh2 yet so can't be sure of how it sounds. But was just an idea floating around in my head at work.

I really like the voices as they are now.

I absolutely hate the CoH2 voices. You have no idea how annoying it is to hear them pronounce "товарищ" in such a horrible way.

I have no idea if there is Russia in COH2 but I hope that the DeV team can make a few additions (the current one is OK but I have no idea what is happening when they said something).

And yeah, it will be nice if it is not from COH2 (since it is like mimicking) so I agree with that as well.

A 2 cent from me:
The sound samples can be similar to the PE or British (they still have the accent and including their own language as well).
