Anyone else likes the voice command confirmations?

[afrit]

There has been a lot of complaining about the units repeating their commands or declaring their identity.

I happen to like that. The only ones that bother me a bit are the barbarian ones referring to themselves as barbarians. The accents are OK. MTW's sounds are very hard to interprest, especially the latin ones. I wish MTW had them in English.

Anyone else feels the same?

PS: the cathaginian "your enemies are crrrrrushed.." dude is a different story. He must go.

to some extent I like it. I like the idea that you hear the unit commander giving orders, but things like "We're under attack!" reminds me too much of normal RTS.

Naturally, the voices should be in native tongues, and not english-latin like in mtw, proper latin.

I do like the voice confirmation of commands, it really helps me know I ordered them to do what I had hoped to order them to do.

The post-battle voices are a different matter for me. My six-year old son, on the other hand, was thrilled to hear that his enemies had been crushed

I just think it's cool hearing the general actually shouting the orders and the troops responding. It really adds to the realism IMO. I can't see why some people may not like them (except perhaps Barbarians calling themselves Barbarians, but then again, they may call themselves that, if that's how their general classifies them and they don't mind.

I can just imagine a real commander ' shouting ' orders with all the noise of battle...or even simply marching, I doubt he would be heard by any other than his bodyguard.

But let's imagine all his troops can hear him ok..." SACRED BAND CAVALRY!!! " kind of gives away the ambush position to the enemy

To a very little extend I like it.

I really hate them. Why would they be speaking English, for goodness sakes? And I don't want my general to tell me he's my general, I know that darn it!

I don't care for them. If there must be a confirmation sound file for each unit I would sooner have them respond with a simply, "Sir!" instead of the silliness that exists right now. The worst part is that most of the voiceovers for these confirmations are terrible. The RTS games CA has obviously copied to bring RTW to the masses have superior unit confirmation voices than these. The barbarian units sound like grumpy axe wielding dwarves found in virtually every fantasy RTS and rpg game ever made... blech

See my sig for further evidence of my displeasure...

A simple "Sir" or "Yes" or something creative like in RTSs is fine. Stating the name of their unit just sounds retarded to me.
