[Req] Combat chatter

from Sins Forums
I was wondering, how hard would it be to have combat chatter? It doesn't have to be anything significant but just something to at least make these fights seem a bit more epic. Like, I would enjoy hearing fighter pilots talk during engagements, brag about kills or even warn another pilot he's being followed, stuff like that. Or even, I'd like to hear frigate commanders give orders/complain about damages.

One thing I loved about Dawn of War was how there were all these battlecries. It made it seem realistic and believable. For instance, there would be imperial guard fighting against Tau, and there would be all these explosions sending firewarriors into the air, but the Tau would say stuff like 'Keep firing, keep firing!' and that kind of stuff.

I wouldn't mind doing this myself but I have no idea where to start.

To quote Blair:


Battle chatter won't make it in for the initial release though we do still intend to include it in a future patch or content release. It was scheduled to be recorded along with all the other voice work but it didn't fit in the time allocated and the unit voice work was higher priority.


With any luck, it'll be coming. :)

As far as fighters are concerned only TEC fighters/Bombers are maned.
