I found out that "BAIL OUT!" doesnt work on the Mec or PLA Side.

I especially hate when people are blasting off rounds into the ground or into the air just for the hell of it while their Blackhawk is lifting off because the guns are so loud and it's obnoxious...

What I hate is squadmates who absolutely insist that it's "their" tank and that they will operate it by themselves, without anyone's help.
It usually ends ugly when they face another tank.

You can already make them English with American accents. I did that the moment I installed BF2.
Downside is, I don't hear British voices (there are British voices in PR, right?)

Or worse, my squad is moving through out some urban environment, taking great cover, moving behind the enemy lines and trying to come up and supprise them, but no, some dipstick has to fire his weapon off because he's too simple to understand what a "silent" approach means.

I was conducting a recon squad on EJOD, and i had both my snipers and medic in position and was tracking an enemy armoured colum and wiring the location to squad 4(heavy AT squad), via the commander.
Then, all of a sudden some unassigned guy spawns on my rally point, with his GL which was comstomised with an assault rifle fitted(...you'd think it would have been the other way around, but no. When they run out of nade rounds, then they use the assault rifle attachment).
He then desides that my squad is now the armour destraction/bait squad by firing his UGL an enemy MBT, APC and INF. This quickly resulted in my death and if it wasnt for the 30remaining enemy tickets, possibly my whole squad's and rally point.
Also, the blue guy that fires the miniguns from the BH at a shurb in the middle of an empty desert gets on my nerves.

That as a qualy game Mong

.. (I think I were the CO)
Another annoying thing is when somone keeps calling arty strikes on nothing, and then gets angry when it doesn't come saying: DON'T CLICK ARTY STRIKES AWAY COMMANDER YOU F*CKING IDIOT! YOU WON'T GET ANOTHER ONE SO SOON! YOU C*NT!
Well ofcourse I'm happy they're using the request and it rarely happends someone actualy is, but it's kinda stupid after I told him 2000 times on VOIP that: ARTY IS NOT READY FROM YOUR LAST REQUEST 2 SECONDS AGO!

What I hate is when the commander approves arty strikes without looking. I pop out, call an arty strike without the SOFLAM or even iron sights up (because of heavy enemy fire), and miss it, accidentally calling it on myself. Yelling over voip and pressing pgdown usually does nothing, because the commander approves it the second it comes up!

YEah i did that too but a) no british voices when the brit voices are quite good and b) when you hear a "need ammo" scream can't tell if it's an enemy to knife or a friendly
however PR is truly unplayable with arab voices on because things don't come up in text either

Treat every ammo request as a threat unless you can identify them on the minimap
I had my sound detail set to low for a while without realizing it, and I never even heard any voices shouting. The bullet whizzing and hitting sounds were also really weird, sounding like someone tapping their fingers on a wooden table.

If the guy nex to you shouts something, TAKE THE TIME TO TURN AROUND.
IF YOU'RE A RIFLEMAN, THROWDOWN SOME AMMO.
IF YOU'RE A MEDIC, THROWDoWN SOME HEALING.

I played without English Vo for so long, I "automatically" know, what someone wants, when they scream in that arab jibberish...I mean, after getting 20 MECs pwned and they were all screaming "Medic" few seconds before, you had to be stupid not to remember, how the scream sounded like
Yea, and I should turn off my dialog confirm thing...cos everytime someone requests arty, I want to zoom in to check the target, only to click "Accept" by accident...
And what really pissed me off, when USMC capped the East City on Ejod, I shouted "Call artillery on East" because there was like 25 of those USMC fvckers standing there, and no one bothered...then I watched, how the squads spilled all over the city and minutes later, I could actually see the fight with my SOFLAM, cos the USMC got so far...I was in a bunker at North Desert...

If I do coomand, which is rare, I always check arty strikes with the eye of god, to see if 1. its a mistake and 2. I'm not wasting it on 1 guy with an assault rifle.

I think MEC "medic!" is "la harisidan", "laharizchisan" or maybe "halisarichiswan"
"Thanks" is "sukran" and "death to the americans" is something like "al mout lil amerikan", but it's not in the mod yet.

The mini map will give you a clue as to who is asking for what where.
When you ask for medic, all the medics show as a red cross, same as ammo.
If you are Ammo then you see the ammo icon over the person asking, same if you are playing medic.
The foreign voices may be annoying at times but they can save your life too.
