eartharioch Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Also, for anybody that has played The Secret World, pretty much anything from Illuminati HQ would work. As would old-school hip-hop in the Cantinas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantazm Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 It's quite funny how people hate it when they play on Rep side but they want it on Imp side... Probably explains a lot about Imps. "Welcome to Taris. I'm Governor Saresh. On behalf of the Galactic Republic, I want to thank you for joining us in this historic project." Every single time. this is why they need a load of announcements to scroll through........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OddballEasyEight Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 When no events are on it could spout out more generic Totalitarian propaganda, recruiting drives and so on. I would LOVE that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undiess Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yes, the announcers for both imperial and republic are quite nice to have an provide more substance to the atmosphere in SWTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aries_cz Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Cite. Nobody I know hates it, so I can't justify taking your word for it. I should have written that "people who hate it usually hate it because it keeps repeating every time you set foot in Taris spaceport". I was not saying that all people hate it, but why do most people, who already hate it, hate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dacentabaal Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I'm 50/50, On the one hand its great and makes the fleet feel alive and not quiet dead emptiness... But, on the other hand,, its repetitive dribble of annoyance when heard so often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't take too long to record 20-30 messages. And I seriously doubt she is a high-price voice actor (no offense to her, she's good and all, but I don't think they'd use someone expensive for that) so it shouldn't be much of an expense. Just pop a few dozen lines in there about whatever and have them randomly play every 5-10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unibim Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Make her fleet world boss, and if people managed to kill her, she will be silent. I love jumping around fleet, but she is so annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

errant_knight Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I like this idea. Anything that adds to immersion is a good thing and the announcer is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infernixx Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 In order to keep down on monotony, there should be far more than 20-30. I'm thinking in the neighborhood of a hundred or two hundred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and it doesn't have to be the same announcer. There could be a couple of them, both male and female announcers so that you have a variety.

There could be a couple of them, both male and female announcers so that you have a variety.From the movie Airplane!: Male announcer: The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone. Female announcer: The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the red zone. Male announcer: [later] The red zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the white zone. Female announcer: No, the white zone is for loading of passengers and there is no stopping in a RED zone. Male announcer: The red zone has always been for loading and unloading of passengers. There's never stopping in a white zone. Female announcer: Don't you tell me which zone is for loading, and which zone is for stopping! Male announcer: Listen Betty, don't start up with your white zone [expletive deleted] again. [Later] Male announcer: There's just no stopping in a white zone. Female announcer: Oh really, Vernon? Why pretend, we both know perfectly well what this is about. You want me to have an abortion. Male announcer: It's really the only sensible thing to do, if its done safely. Therapeutically there's no danger involved. Edited August 8, 2014 by Thoronmir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PavSalco Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) /signed One line each 10 minutes wouldn't annoy anybody. The amount of lines could be at least 10 as well. Edited August 9, 2014 by PavSalco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
