Is Arnold Schwarzenegger on my boat?

[Syxx_Killer]

This is really weird. I started playing the game using the German voice dialogue. I left the text on English. It does add to the immersion factor. I noticed, though, that when my sonarman reports a hydrophone contact he sounds exactly like Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's disturbing, really. :huh: :88)

[SteamWake]

I think it actually depends on which crew member you assign to the station. I have never really noticed.

He'll be Bock !

[Ducimus]

For some reason im picturing that voice from AOD....

"Depth charges in the water!!" followed very quickly in the same sentence by, "Its not a tumor!"


"Crash dive, all hands forward!, Do it! Do it now!!!"

[Abraham]

I'm sure it is Arnold. My sonar man said: "Hasta la vista, baby!" the other day!
Besides, he has the physique - but so has my whole crew...
:D

[Der Schatten]

Gee, I WISHED mine sounded like Ahhhhnold.....mine sounds like Pee Wee Von Herman.

[capt_frank]

i get the arnold sounding guy when we're under attack or was that when we're taking damage...nonetheless...he's there

[Nopileo]

:rotfl: Yeah, I got a bit alarmed the first time I heard the sonarman after installing patch 1.4b. He sounded like a woman, or like someone high on caffeine or Helium (more likely).

But one thing I've noticed. I also play with German voices, and when I order a full stop, the CE replies 'alle maschinen schtock!'. My German is a bit rusty, but I would think that he is supposed to say 'schtopp'...? I'm sure he says it, as I'm playing with a headseat. Don't miss a heartbeat with those... :ping:

I know that the crew members have a setting for which voice to use, so different crewmen will (well, can) sound differently at the different positions, depending upon who is where. :)

I still want to know if it's intentional that my crew (in English) sounds like nervous little girls sometimes when there are depth charges in the water :) Is that a function of morale?

Yes, if you are going silent and/or you are being followed by warships, the game sets a mode so that the crew sound like a bunch of wimps... :ping:

But I think something is not right in there somewhere, as sometimes my crew yells out incredibly loud, when they're supposed to be quiet! :damn:

I'm thinking of taking away their caffein coffee, but I'm not sure if de-caff was invented at that time...

Tell us the name of your Schwarzenegger crew member, Syxx Killer, so we can all assign him to the post and get a listen. :)

The sonarman's name is Karl Creutz. He is a Chief Sr. W. Officer.

[Patboot]

I've got "Mr Whorf" for a weapons officer.

That deep growly "Solution ready, Sir" sounds like he wants to swim out and sink it with his bare hands, LOL

In fact it's (re)invented in these days called Ersatzkaffee or Mucke****....I tasted it once and it's :lol: terrible, very bad for morale. :nope:

:rotfl: :rotfl: I've just imagined that :rotfl: :rotfl:

[jonny211]

that's odd... I can't see photon torpedoes in the weapon loadouts?!?

[Zie Chuckinator]

my sonar man yells "Enemy ship has been terminated" :rock:

[August]

Does anyone know what voiceidx number the Arhnold voice is?

[Sawdust]

Does anyone know what voiceidx number the Arhnold voice is?
I just looked up Herr Creutz in the crew roster and he uses Voice number 5.
He does sound like Schwarzenegger, more or less, depending on which message he's saying. :D
Maybe it is just the Austrian accent.

Much obliged. My current sonarmans voice sounds like a looney tunes character..

SHIP SPOTTED.. GET TO THE CHOPPAH!!!!

SHIP SPOTTED.. GET TO THE CHOPPAH!!!!

LOL :rotfl:

[satmax]

OK, this made me laugh so hard that I know destroyers on the surface could hear me...

Anyway, the default (well, seems like MY default) voice for the sonar operator is always the same and is very recognizable. In his German voice, he's telling me "Warship closing" blah blah blah. Well, we're waiting this DD out for a long time and he starts getting tired... I switch him out with a fresh operator.

Next report I get on the DD is now the same voice with lots of helium added! I just about fell out of my chair!! ROFLMAO

Now, this should be an undertaking for someone good with soundboards. Make an all Arnold voice crew.

My favorite would be when you abandon ship...

"Get to tha CHOPPA!"

Order to go to periscope depth and the Chief asks you,

"Who is your daddy, and what does he do?"

Smart ass crew.... :)

[Twitch]

when ya get DCd he starts up the

"theres a bomb aarrgghha arrgggghhaaa TAKE MY HAND!!! aarrgghhhh"

[Twitch]

my radar op sound slike some mid puberty teenager with a cracking voice and waining self esteem... i can see it now

"Grim news, the entire crew has been lost, it appears the rarar operator Seaman first Class Wendelhoffensthiner, left his station to go beat off in the head, and Class C pwned them like a bunch of n00bs... *cough* .. mein furer"

[gonzman]

My Radio guy has the really deep voice.

I've hired a new Watch Officer before he sounded more like a chipmunk.

I get the feeling the devs only recorded a few voices then went and modified their pitch a bit to create new voices out of them!

[Damo1977]

I have this really evil looking soundman, and everytime I ask him a question he looks at me as if to say not my problem I would rather be elsewhere
