I know a lot of people are going off about the female voice that gives information on whats going on in the match. Some people are just saying BS comments just because the announcer is female, others saying it doesnt fit the time period, etc… I’m not one of those people. My stance on it is slightly different. Firstly tho, I honestly dont care one way or another that its a female voice.

To me, I feel like the way it sounds doesnt fit the time period. It sounds like I’m taking instructions from someone whos on the Star Ship Enterprise. As is now, its clean and crisp, not gritty sounding to fit like the game. I want my female commander to sound like shes talking to me over a ham radio with the static and feedback. I hope they will consider this. (not that keeping it as is would deter me from playing, but I’m thinking about immersion)

That is all, thanks for reading.

I do agree about the tone of her voice. The way she talks seems like she is from Star Wars to me, rather than Battlefield. But I do agree with people, that she just seems really off, at least if talking about time period, realism or not. Also, announcer doesnt always mean commander.

Not trying to be a , but out of all the threads including the ones with various polite criticism, pointing out details, giving interesting and nice suggestions etc, you agree only with the one that defends inclusion of female announcer? Sorry, but it seems really stupid to me.

Also, still, I am not sure who besides being announcer she is supposed to be, but as I said, realism or not, as commander she really doesnt seem to have a place here, it just seems really really off. As Vespervin said, even if adding her, it still needs to be done the way it feels and sounds more believable, like if its just somebody who contacts you in a base through radio or something like that (though even here, I am not sure if there were females among such roles as radists etc). At least thats what I personally think.

He agrees with his point about tone… please focus when reading.

I’m not necessarily defending keeping the woman as the announcer but changing the way she announces things like OP is suggesting

. And yes, I’m singling out this thread being quality considering most the threads on this new forum have been new players asking for the most ridiculous suggestions.

You can also say the same thing with the announcer in Bf4. No actual commander but there’s still a man who tells me that we are losing a flag…

I am not sure tbh, he didnt stated that he agrees about tone specifically, he just said he strongly agrees with the thread itself which contains a few words about inclusion of female voice itself overall too. But well, not gonna speak for him though.

Read paragraph 2 from OP, that’s what I agree with. Now you understand?

Ah, my bad then, sorry. Well, you do have a point, that there were many pretty stupid and obnoxious threads recently, some of which were even really stupid or made purpousely for trolling, but I actually saw many threads with actually pretty nice suggestions and topics, like about adding various nations, weapons, battles, maps etc, interestinc aspects about WW1, discussions and so on.

P.S. Sorry for doublepost.

That’s expected though for something like DLC, but with the base game, this is what should be tweaked.

_This forum is still in beta, so it’ll be messy as expected.._

Yeah, but whats wrong with that (unless talking about over-fanatical and/or way too whiney people who go out of control)? I mean, people wanting to see more variety, or having various expectations? I myself have high hopes and about base game, and about DLCs.

It’s very early in the game and people are already demanding for battles/map/weapons etc that could already be in the game. Seems excessive when all you see is “DICE PLEASE ADD THIS” or “DICE SHOULD DO THIS” all in the forum…

Well, as I said, there are some people who go out of hand, not gonna deny it, but on other side, again, I dont see anything wrong with people giving suggestions or wanting something to be represented (like same French and Russians), unless as I said it literally turns into fanatism and absurdity, and thus goes out of control.

Female or male, I just want a sense of urgency in the voice. That monotone delivery is just…weird.
