Woman voice: "you lost object A"

just get a man to voice act it.. if im not mistaken they didnt let women serve back then.. and when she calls out “the enemies have a baheamith” its like shes not scared shes just like yeah so what.. if a massive air ship is over your head shouldnt the voice actor be freaking out?

no we dont. we only have a call out after the flag was neutralized in bf4.

yeah the point f a pre alpha is letting the devs know what we didnt like.. if we say nothing it will stay as they will assume we like it

Let’s just hope then that this was just a place holder for the live stream event. After all the game won’t be out for several months still, and we should hope that they are and were focusing more on the core mechanics and handling of the game then the objective update voice over.

That said, I agree with a lot of people here. A. It feels to clean and completely out of place, like a voice in your head. Something from an AI telling you that your bubble bath is ready.
B. If they do keep the voice over, then they’ll need to fix it outright. If they want to keep the girl, make her less robotic and add some radio static
C. Don’t want to keep the girl? Then change it up to a General or Colonel, or having a teammate, or even your own character updating the situation. After all, you are playing a soldier, he would want to know or possibly know what the hell is going on. I recall BF3’s soldiers making constant updates on the situation.

Yes we do, but only when it’s already captured or lost, not during the process

It needs Neebs voice. :stuck_out_tongue:

she needs to lose herself

I agree

I’m truly sorry, DICE. I’m VERY hyped for Battlefield 1, but I cringed every time I’ve heard that voice-over during the gameplay.

I’m not saying that DICE has to ditch the poor woman, but definitely re-record with her and make her dialogue MUCH more dramatic and atmospheric (HUGE emphasis on “atmosphere”). Also, add some radio effects like “cackling” or some small “screeches” (nothing ear-splitting) to help improve the atmosphere.

Overall, I’m confident DICE will address this issue. After all, anybody remember the “Be advised!” guy from Battlefield 3’s beta?

Nice

That’s how it should be. That rewards awareness at least.

I hated it, please bring back an announcer for each faction instead, or just something less annoying.

Something like that. I hope the voice is just temporary ‘filler’. I don’t like the new dispatch girl. Apperently miss Juliet is rather old @Peccath ? :wink:
Oh and flag F Foxtrot was called Freddy

I like her voice and it is mainly because she is calm. To me, it sounds way better than the other voice actors that do callouts when something is being done and it sure as heck better than other players doing the callouts

I hope this is an option so you switch it on/off as you like?

We’re losing carrots!!!

For a good minute or so I was confused, and thought I had a tab in the background with audio from another game, before finally figuring out that it was the announcer in BF1.

Not a fan. When I think of a calm and calculated voice, I think of Oracle from Batman, or M from 007. I also got an Unreal Tournament/Quake vibe from the voice, but I’d have to watch it again to figure out why. It just seemed to clash with the setting for me. I’d definitely like to see the lines be redone with more urgency and emotion to them.

I’m not against having a clashing voice, though… but I’d want the default voice to fit the setting as far as hollywood is concerned. I wouldn’t mind seeing the current voice be an alternate option, but then again… I wouldn’t mind seeing a family friendly voice, either:

“Gosh darn diddely, they’ve taken Bravo!”
“Get on B, you silly geese!”
“We’ve captured B, dang diddely! Hoorah!”

Yes we do have one it’s quieter than this one and in the respective factions accent

+1, hope we can toogle it off

it should be mic crackle soldier we are losing objective Alpha get the over there!! mic crackle

It should not sound like it was taken from titan fall 2

female not a problem
