Improvement: Additional voice macros

[Captain1nsaneo]

"Shazbot!" Is one pseudo curse that I know my friend enjoyed from Tribes.
"Bombs!"
"Target on the nose" or similar for tankers and their gunners
"RUN!" as V-V-M never seemed to convey the right tone when in a buggy
"Breach!" For entering doors
Make all the V-V-S commands sound honest.
"And your father smelled of elderberry!" Additional taunts as the two we had just didn't work when you had mowed someone.
*Laughter*
"Enemy tank on the left/right/port/starboard"
"Enemy aircraft on the left/right/port/starboard"
"Enemy infantry on the left/right/port/starboard/fore/aft" As a driver I like to know which way I shouldn't go and wish my gunners/passengers could tell me.
"Full health" "Half health" "Almost dead" "Shields down" "Target Health?" I'd like these to be on as few keys as possible.
"We can take them"
"Droppers!"
"MINES!" ah, the number of times I've gone past friendly tanks and wished I could have warned them.
"Dr.Lancer's cure all." "All plasma half off!" "Headshot" "Oil our treads." "That is the happiest sound." "Bang bang, bang-bang-bang." "GERONIMO!" "Feels like a monday."

Keep in mind that whatever you give us we'll find a use for, specially the nonsensical stuff. V-S-A-M was one of my outfit's favorites for example.

[Bruttal]

well I had this whole thing typed out then I go to hit post and it said i wasn't signed in so am just gonna make a quick post this time and i hope ya understand.

I would like the Ability to customize what is being said for a hotkey or something. some kinda GUI VM hotkey that lets you select words you wanna say with a max of 5 words heres some of the things i could think of

"I" "Need" "a" "Medic"
"We" "Need" "a" "Medic"
"You" "Need" "a" "Medic"
"Incoming" "VehicleName" "Direction" "Number"
"Escaping" "VehicleName" "Direction"

Problem is inless the Voice actors say each word a million different ways it may sound segmented but I think i could live with that

[Shogun]

i would like to have an "out of ammo!" automatic call for vehicle gunners. or even a "low on ammo, need resupply"

and besides the "c´mon you dogs, do you want to live forever" we need a panicing "we all GONNA DIIIIE!"

i am not sure, if it will be needed for ps2, but in ps1 a "tr/nc/vs incoming" would have been nice, to warn squadmates on a lonely cont, that the enemys start responding to a ghosthack or such.

[Straws]

"Clear the area"

Other than that, I'd go with some context varations. A version of "move" because someone is in the way, another for inciting your team mates to "move up" for example.

[Graywolves]

"Move up! Get up! Go!"

[Killerobe]

When you see Higby running at you...

"INCOMING VELOCIRAPTORS"

[Senyu]

VS
"I love the smell of Plasma in the morning"

"Hey, Listen!"

"Make it so"

TR
"Shoot 'em dead, Make 'em Red"

"Lock it up grunts! Were crashing the party!" (or NC)


NC
"Viva La, RESITANCE!"

"Bringing the Thunder"

"Easy Peasy"

"I could use a drink"



Some of those could also just be generic general for all but here are some more in that category

"How cute, their trying to fight back"

"Want a boot up your ass?"

"Rolling rolling rolling"

"These nanites are itchy"

"Bring on the guns"

"About to give you a bad haircut"

"Lets take a little off the top"

"Prooo-ceding"

"See this bullet? Your about to get a close look at it"

"Nice day to kill"

[BaneofMortality]

"DEFEND OUR TURRETS"

and

"I WILL ATTACK THEIR TERMINALS"

by far got the most mileage out of these.

along with "I DUNNO!" and "HEEEELP" also... keep the hands waving above the head animation for VVV. Priceless.

[NewSith]

I guess we need "ADV medic here" voice macros for a medic:
"Stay down, I'm coming!" "Medic's here, hang on!" "I'll be with you in no time, just try not to lose it, alright!" "Step away from the light, Medic says!"

Also some sort of stressed auto-voice while on ressurection rampage:
"This is madness!", "So many, hard to keep up!", "Would they JUST STOP KILLING US?!", "AM I THE ONLY MEDIC HERE?!" "

AYE, and btw we need Follow Me voice macro. Or to be pricise it should be moved to a common pool VO's instead of squad-only...


Also some Empire specific kill-taunts would be cool, like:

VS:
Insignificant. No evolution could've helped you.
Technology. Equals. Might. WEAKLING!
We are the future. And you're now... past.
Vanu judgement is absolute.

NC:
*haha* You couldn't even take our lives...
You gotta try harder than that
Your best is my worst
...Basically all PS1 taunts would only fit NC in such case.

TR:
Glory to the Republic.
You're plague. And we're the cure!
And so you fall like all enemies of the Republic!
You're red now too... *hahahaha*

Pull up!
Nose Down!
Mind the Treeeeee!
10 Seconds till drop zone.
Eject...eject....eject!

[Fuel Truck]

Random movie and misc quotes..

"Are you just gonna stand there and bleed?"

"A day without killing... is like a day without sunshine"

"Pain is temporary, failure is forever."

"I fight where I am told, and I win where I fight. "

"I ain’t got time to bleed!”

"Let's do this! LEEEEEEERRROOOOOOYY JENNNKINS!"

[FIREk]

Let's try to stick to stuff that would actually be useful, guys.

One thing that wasn't mentioned, I think:
"Drop, drop, drop!" for hotdropping - I think Ostekake coined this phrase, but I might be wrong. Ideally using this voice macro should display a tooltip with "press X do bail vehicle" or something, on every passenger's seat.

[Sentrosi]

I'm all for the Galaxy pilot to have the controls in hand for the hot drop. I know in Planetside that there was lag between the hot drop point and some players. So much so that some missed the building entirely when I screamed, "Drop, drop drop". We solved it by trusting every passenger in my Galaxy
A) have Teamspeak
B) knowing when to drop
This way the passenger paid attention to his mini-HUD map and, when he/she was over the drop zone, they bailed.

[Traak]

I really didn't like the UT auto-voice-macros. Especially the ones laced with profanity.

I suggest the devs make up some new epithets for Planetside. They may start out being corny, but you know we will end up adopting them into our vocabulary.

Oh frak!
