Three new videos (German/Russian and mutliplayer).

At first I was against English voices, but then I thought about it...

In game, people will speak English/German/Russian over VOIP regardless of what team they are anyways.

Hearing Germans speaking German-accented English in RO2 won't be any less immersive than hearing some guy from Texas drawling over VOIP in RO:Ost. So what's the problem?

Unless i feel the urge to participate in the public conversation I'll have voip volume lowered or turned off completely.
For the most part i'm using Teamspeak/Vent for conversation with folks i know.

I was just about to write that listening to or speaking non-german as axis and non-russian as allies with/from other players should remove that immersion anyway. Not sure if you agreed with him or not heady89, but if you were disagreeing with Dwin: If you speak to your mates in TS/vent, then you kill thet immersion anyway.
(unless you do it in russian for allies etc.. )

There are no subtitles for the battle chatter... only for commands and player-generated voice.

And do you speak German on TS/Vent when playing Axis and Russian when playing Soviet? If not, that aspect of immersion has already been removed anyway.

Awesome footage!

The only thing I don't like about this is that the left arm looks copy pasted when throwing a grenade.
But I might get used to it anyway. Small price to pay for such an awesome game.

Thanks for the reply Wilsonam

Maybe an idea would be a way to activate a 'quiet mode' on your avatar, so he wont shout out randomly? for when you are a place you need to be quiet, Even if it wont trigger if your alone.. You may be hiding with a 1 team mate and both wanna be quiet. :IS2:

EDIT: Hurp, nevermind, missed the last ten pages.

You'll hear plenty of German commands on the 305th Vent. It may not be a constant stream of fluent, unbroken German, but it sure beats everyone sounding like Schultz from Hogan's Heroes.

That is unfair to the TWI sound guys and the actors that make their career doing voice overs. It doesn't sound bad at all.

 

[LugNut]

Glad to see more ingame footage, especially MP! The game environment looks great, damage and suppression are looking well balanced too.

I have to voice a little disappointment with the player animations though, they look pretty stiff, awkward and weightless/floaty. I was hoping that they would improve as we got closer to release, but I'm a little worried now. And the karate chop German hand has got to go, pretty silly.

Even I say stuff like "Geradeous und dann links mein herr" etc when I play as axis ^^. But then again, if I take gaming to that degree that I use the authentic language myself, why do I need the game to do so too? I can just mute the voice in the game and go 100% on the 3rd party stuff where I and the people I play with all speak german for instance.

Saying that you speak german in vent/ts3 as a counter-argument nullifies your first argument that it should be german in the game to begin with =).

 

[SiC-Disaster]

Perhaps I will be corrected if I am wrong, but Ramm already said that your allied soldiers will speak in whatever language your copy is localized for.

E.g. if you purchase a German or Dutch version, you will hear those languages and not English.

Which would be like the Grebbeberg with a Mosin instead of Stalingrad in winter

i have been whitnessing the rape of my motherlanguage in realism clans that try to be german so hard...srsly...( and really no offence ) its horrible.
At least make an effort and actualy ..ah wahtever...go ahead...

 

[Homuth]

Even for me, a Dutch guy, German is really hard. I've had 5 years of German in High School, but I can barely get into conversation with a German here in Zeeland unless he asks directions.

 

[Hypno Toad]

This is some platoon **** right here

No credit to me for this one

 

[Homuth]

I always knew the German's were full of mud.

Blood effects are fairly unrealistic, it generally is mostly a dirt/vapor puff that you'd see. Still, it would be better if it were a bit more pinkish.

 

[Salaheddine]

Shame, I hope that option will be available "native voice".

sry for my english, use google translation

Wasn't it like that when you were shooting someone and specially in stalingrad you would see the material from the winter jackets flying around. Also blodd isn't spreading in big clouds when you shoot someone

 

[Salaheddine]

too bad, need a "native voice" option please TW.
