Re: A Proposition to those who hate the Brit accents

How about the SAS sounding like the Gumbys from Monty Python?

I could never understand a damn thing they said but the way they said it was silly enough to coax a laugh.

...and as for the codes.. SAS soldiers are called "troopers" if theyre at the lowest rank so i dunno where "fox-hounds" comes from

I thought foxhounds were arty. :0 I really have no idea what any of that stuff means.

* medium-sized glossy-coated hounds developed for hunting foxes

Re: A Proposition to those who hate the Brit accents

In all seriousness its pretty lame the way EA has handled this.

Its not even a question of them 'not getting with the times' SAS soldiers have NEVER spoken like that mainly because the vast majority of Britiush SAS soldiers are Scottish in origin and trained in herefordshire.

Also the music is lame. I mean why is it when the USMC win a round you get the american national anthem but when Britian wins you get some odd peice of music i as a englishman have never heard of ? Where's god save then queen for goodness sake?

And why is it that the British and the Americans never fight in the expansion? You could say because in real life they're allies (not that real life comes in to it with BF2) but if that was true then how come the Russian spetnaz fight the Brits and the Americans? The Russians are Americas and Britians allies too.....

Because Communism is bad!!!

Urbandictionary says that starlite is:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=starlite

Really makes you wonder...

Starlight also makes cases which are apparently very durable, so maybe the brits are asking for some bags to pack so they can go home and watch some BBC?

Play as a brit, and hit the left mouse button. I think you say Starlight my position. I think thats when you die, you face up, and see starlight...but not in broad daylight...

Re: A Proposition to those who hate the Brit accents

I had a thread that talked about all those weird words last week

http://www.totalbf2.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42733

ptegan had the closest explanation

This extract is from a diary of a WWII British officer :

"I can't stay here all night with this lot," he moaned, indicating his bullet-riddled arm.
"It's all right, mate," I hastened to reassure him. "I've already radioed for Starlight jeep. It should be here soon." I had seen him brought in and had radioed immediately for a medical officer. The man nodded his thanks and resigned himself to waiting.

This seems to be better than my crap reply concerning cases. In WWII a 'starlight jeep' was a 'medic jeep'.

so I guess starlight means medical supplies...in WWII jargon...

DICE still using old timey 40s accents with old timey 40s jargon. get with the times you silly canadians. =\

Re: A Proposition to those who hate the Brit accents

ok, anyone play the DCX mod for bf1942? It added the brits and the sounds were great.

Just curious, is it possible to just replace the sound files like you could in bf1942?
