Will the French Forces speak in French ? Like for the reloading speeches, calling trans/crates etc ? If you lack some diversity in the voices, I can volunteer because French is my native language.

Can't wait for 1.0 :D

Oh yeah, I've forgot that BF2 came with French voices lol... They look so retarded that I've always been playing with the local ones :p (Arab for MEC, Chinese for PLA, etc...) and with English UI ^^

Edit : But BF2 don't have voices for the crate calling and all the custom speeches of PR ._.

PR doesn't have custom speeches? Though we're using unused vBF2 voices, perhaps that's what you mean. The French should have those as well though.

PR don't have custom speeches ? :shock:

Well... I've heard the "We're getting wasted ! Fall back !" speech in PR, but not in vBF2. Same for "Affirmative a vehicle is on the way !" etc...

If those were just unused vBF2 files, then it's normal I've never heard them :p

That's all included in vBF2. There are even more voices in there. Including the spotting of an enemy wheelbarrow :p .

That played when you spotted a car sometimes, and after that you would hear laughing. :lol:

New French voices would have been good, but only real French voices, not French Canadian ones. ;) (the current ones in the build are the vbF2 ones which sound as idiot as the British voices must sound for British players).

I must admit I like your accent but it doesn't suit very well a French soldier. :mrgreen:

Im no expert, but im guessing its like the difference between American and British accents. Same language, said differently

Indeed smiddey pretty much, but the difference is a bit more emphasized. Accents are completely different and french canadian uses a lot of different words with a wrong french grammar hahhaha

Well, I can easily forge a British or American accent, I thought it is like BR Portuguese and PT Portuguese.

I think Zombie can easily forge the French accent.

While I was born in Montreal, my two parents are French (dad from Paris and mom from Niort) and I can speak with the two accents :p

Pwn'd ^^

Edit : Also, don't worry, I don't speak like everyone in Quebec, and I'm a grammar-god compared to what I've heard deep outside Montreal :-? I won't start a debate about Quebec's school system, but trust me, it's horriying how I'm more educated than some teachers at some schools in the province. (By the way, I went to a French school : Stanislas, and the French school system is way better than Quebec's. I can compare, I've been in the two :mrgreen: )

They're in the "Common_client.zip" in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2"

You'll need a program to extract and read them, follow this tutorial here : Guide to Extracting Sounds from BF2 - BF3S Forums

Have good laugh ! :p

Edit: you just need WinRAR or 7zip (or anything else that can extract files) and a player who reads .ogg
