HOOAH!! and ALLAH ACKBARR!!

charliegrs · Post by **charliegrs** » 2007-05-01 23:50

many of us who have seen the various videos shot by the marines/insurgents in iraq know that both sides tend to be very vocal with theyre excitement after making a kill. the marines, often after calling in an airstrike, or watching an abrams blast a building housing a bunch of insurgents, will hoop and holler at the top of theyre lungs. like HOOAHH!! and HELL YEAHH!! like this:

the insurgents are the same way, after setting off an ied or downing a chopper, well, you know what THEY yell, ALLLAAHH ACKBARRR!! but no im not gonna link to any videos like these as im american and its hard to watch.

so my suggestion is could we add the ability to yell like this into the game? i really think it would add alot of depth to the game and immersiveness as well as psyche out the other team.

perhaps you could bind this to one of the unused keys, or add it to comm rose. and i would definitly say limit it somehow, like you could only yell twice per life or something like that to keep people from spamming. and make it loud enough to hear it for a realistic distance you would hear a yell. and randomize it so you dont keep hearing the same old yells from each side.

just imagine sitting being hunkered down on a rooftop in basrah with your marine squad, and across from you is another rooftop full of insurgents. out of nowhere a cobra unleashes a barrage of rockets upon the rooftop where the insurgents were gathered , totally wiping out the insurgent squad. HOOOAHH!!! you yell along with your squadmates orr..

your an insurgent hiding in a building waiting for a vehicle to drive over the ied you have planted on the road. you hear the sound of an vehicle and you look over to see a hummer with a full marine squad, as it passes over the ied you hit the trigger and boommmm!! ALLAAAHH ACKBARR!!!

mec could use the same yells as the insurgents. i dont know what china says when they yell, probly something in chinese lol and britain well i think they are quite a bit more composed but im sure they yell too.

does anyone else think this is a good idea? i mean it happens in real life so i figure it would be perfect this mod.

kind of like the taunts features in other games, and it sure beats having to type out allah after every jihad.
I like it

If you have a mic you can yell whatever you want to your squad mates

The whole point is having everyone hear it. If you're the only marine to survive and ambush, and you hear 5 insurgents yelling about Allah's snackbars, you're going to be a bit nervous.

yeah you dont yell it so much so your 5 other squadmates can hear it, you yell it so everyone in a given area can hear it.

Which technically should be your squadmates but................

Lol I like this idea.

Yes TAUNTS thats the word i was looking for to describe it, i wish i would have thought of that earlier.

also, i have roommates, and if i was to be yelling ALLLLAAH ACKBARRR at the top of my lungs they would be both weirded out and pissed off. i bet im not the only one with this problem. thats why this feature would be so nice, not to mention THE OTHER TEAM WOULD HEAR IT

i would think most soldiers scream for the hell of it wether or not theyre killing something. Although if you want to implement that, it might be a radio call (hold down Q or T etc...)

On a similar note: I've always thought that there should be a radio call for "Good Job" with variations like "Nice Shot" or something else complimentary. Unless the guy is in your squad (VOIP), you have to type in order to give him a compliment and I hate typing in game.

I would love this feature! They had taunts in Battlefield Vietnam, as well as some mods for BF1942.

Well there would be a limit, or you will get the "blocked for 30 seconds" message.

i dont think we will any time soon due to race/religious reasons...

Make the insurgents say "durka durka durka durka!" then.

Bad idea too... Imagine if PR had taunts in game, then the start of teabagging will rise in PR... Just imagine an insurgent running up to your dead body, starts crouching and standing up 50 times yelling radio taunts... I don't want to see that happen... Didn't Battlefield Vietnam have taunts?

Och it's not that bad, shouldn't take teabagging seriously or personally, they always have a chance of getting shot anyway.
