So that's what that says.

What's it say ontop of the hotel? The really tall one?

Hmmm, we need someone who knows Arabic to make the MEC field dressing.

Could you do a translation that makes sense in Arabic?

You do know, in PR terms, you just volenteered to translate and voice act everything from scratch? :D

English with an arabic accent would make so much more sense in a game...

If this idiot can learn what "MEDIC IDI0T" is in BF2 arab, then the rest can learn anyting. ;) :D You know, just RTFM.

Seriously - There have been comments on the chineese specter, but I can't remember arab. Any input would just benefit this mod. Or give them grey hairs. What ever comes first.

Edit: Ever afraid of insulting anybody - I got to put "smile" behind every funny.

The current Chinese voice is horrible too. Lots of mistakes made because DICE took "literal" translations word for word, which in the end, doesn't make a lick of sense.

Once I talked with a guy from Saudit Arabia and tried use some words from BF2 with him. To my surprise, he understood everything.

Something like "Chucran u brutan" means "thank you brave man". I don't know about the chinese, but I belive Dice has done a good work with the arabian voices.

Ah, so that's what the machine gun says. I always wanted to know what it says. Yeah, at least they actually have an actual Arabic language, real or not. You don't see much games with Arabic in them. At least they tried.

Btw i know russian and it really annoys me that those militia guys on Mestia say: "I've spotted enemy helichopter" when you spot infantry. Its the one that sounds something like this: "Zasek vertolet protivnika" Can you guys somehow remove that?

DEV's? ;)

No, the militias drinks Vodka all the time and therefore sees small helicopters everywhere.

PR = realism. ;)
