    Custom Announcer Pack (Pack Mixing)

    Considering the wide variety of announcer packs, their prices and the fun factor added by them, I would like to suggest that custom announcer packs were allowed, using the voice packs owned by the player. I will refer to it as "Pack Mix".

    What is it?

    It is the possibility of choosing (among the voice packs you own) which voice pack will be used for each event ocurred.
    Ex: I own MsPudding, Pimp and Badass packs and I choose that bloodlust will be announced by MsPudding, Humilliation by Pimp and all the rest by Badass pack.



    Why should it be implemented?

    Every person has a favorite voice pack and is more likely to buy it first.
    Due to the fact that only one pack can be active at a time, very few people are willing to buy another pack, after they've bought their favorite.
    If Pack Mix were available, players would be more motivated to buy extra announcer packs, in order to use their favorite lines among all of them. That way, the announcer itself would be a much more interesting and fun perk and players would be more willing to buy and use this feature which so much effort was put on to make


    Best Regards


    (Sorry for any redundance or grammar error. It's late in the night and I'm sleepy :P)

    I think voicing your own pack would be worth doing. it would have to be screened first to avoid inhealthy attitudes and language, but would be coool.

    That's impossible. The space required for the voice files of everyone would be way to big, since every player has to have these files in their own computer to listen to them ingame.
    If it is for your own use and you listen to it alone, that's already possible. Record your samples and use some mod your game or replace the files of any voice pack you own (even standard).

    It would be fun, but would cause a lot of confusion about who is getting the streaks. :/
    Sorry no support here

    Wow... read the battle log! You mean you aren't able to tell who's getting the streak when more than 2+ players have the same annoucer? Kinda weird... considering there are 10 players in each team and less than 10 voice packs available.

    +1 from me. I want this long time ago. The irginal announcers' "annihilation" sound is still my best from all.

    Ikr! I wanted to use some sounds of the new pimp pack... there are some nice things there :P

    +1 on that idea. I would use the TOUCHED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME from pimp, KISS MY ASS from badass, etc etc.
    Retired after the deportation system announced by S2 games. If you are a latin and have any self esteem, uninstall tthis game and play something else.

    It's an excelent idea.
    You probably won't believe me, but I came to this section to create a post with exactly this idea. Luckly I decided to check out a few posts to see if i could find something close to that and here I am.
    +500 for your post.
    I really think this can work and I ask S2 to read this thread with good eyes.

    Cycling announcers would be cool, each time you die the next announcer pack is activated. So you could select a few different packs to be loaded.

    That would be a less-customizable alternative but would fit the purpose
    I'm not very aware of how announcers are loaded at the start of a match... but depending on how it's done, loading many entire voice packs (instead of specific lines) might become a little heavy to users with low-end hardware.

    won't work since it it way to hard to implement this for S2, everyone will need everyone's announcer wich will be impossible, a sound is a lot bigger then a small pic so it will be impossible to get this working.

    and then there is the problem about bad words, S2 would need to get a full team to have all the words checked out and this team would include people who know all the languages.

    in other words: funny idea but will never work properly and will cost S2 way to much.
