After running by mosques or being by mosques a lot of times as insurgents, I noticed that the Call to Prayer is barely audible. You can only hear it if your so close to the mosque. I recently downloaded Forgotten Hope 2 and I heard the call to prayer on their maps, it sounds AWSOME, it's loud, and it can be heard throughout the maps. I was thinking that you could ask them for that sound file to replace the one we have now. I would love to play on an insurgent map and have the call to prayer in the background. It wouldn't be a constant call to prayer of course, on Forgotten Hope 2 you only hear it after several minutes of silence. Perhaps it can be like the jet flyover on Korengal? Please take this into consideration, the mosque call to prayer needs replacing or retuning BADLY.

the mosque call to prayer needs replacing or retuning BADLY.

nah its ok if u ask me. yes...it would be heard around the whole map. but over the course of 3 hours, if I could hear that thing all the times, I'd go looney.

Id like to see that on maps like Ramiel , Basra, and Karbala. As I having visited a majority Islamic city (Jakarta) I can say this happens regularly. but it always doesen't mean call to prayer. Sometimes they use the loudspeaker for other random jibberish.

Actually, at no point during the game should you be hearing the call to prayer at all. Throughout the game insurgents/coalition are always fighting. In Islamic culture, nobody does anything but pray during prayer time. All the time you can hear stories of soldiers using the call to prayer as a reliable method of moving, escaping enemy fire because their enemies are praying during that time.


Saying that it isn't loud enough is contradictory to reality.



Edit: Here is a video report where marines use the call to prayer as time to extract a wounded marine. Call to prayer section starts at 1:50

That's not exactly true. Muslims are allowed to miss a prayer if they make up for it later. But, it would have to be for a good reason, like while flying a plane, or while coalition troops have you pinned down in a ditch.

It would be nice if it was very loud, but only happened once in a 3hr game.

yeah

I was just going to agree with Waldo, these people are pretty devout, if the call to prayer is going out they should be praying, not fighting.

I'd be careful with absolutes. While I understand what you're saying, that's not entirely true 100% of the time.

That would be higly unatural because in real cities they dont do Adhan (call to prayer) in the middle of a battleground... but there is something i would change.... the Mosque in Muttrah city... in the intrance, the door there is arabic scripture on the ground, maybe religious... i wanna ask u to remove that because it is realy offending against muslims to see there holy scripture on the floor, and u cant find something like that in any mosque in the world.

Alright, even if a loud call to prayer would be unrealistic, something should be done with the one that we have now.

I agree with this, the arabic text should be taken off the ground because its against Islamic religion to put the Qur'an or any Qur'an text on the ground.
