The big differences in german speech in SHIII are because mods usually only change the german speech files. :up:
For example the 'message received'; in german speech for me, there´s the sound of morsing (is that even a word? :) ). |
German speech all the way, mann :up:
I'm not a German sprecher either but after playing SH3 for a year in Deutche only, I understand all the commands and reports as soon as I hear them without reading the English translations. WWII wargaming helps too, you can't help but gain some understanding of German military terms. With SH3 I have added the naval aspect to my limited German language skills. :know: |
German speech all the way here as well..
I dont speak any German as well but with the English text I can see what they are saying..Using the English speech is simply a total immersion killer.And I am also learning the commands and reports without the need to see the text somewhat now as well. |
I honestly never thought about German speech in the game. No wonder something seemed weird about the sailors speaking in English! :lol: I guess I'll go switch to German in that case.
|
Im Dutch, of course I have German speech on.
The thought alone of hearing English on a u-boat makes me cringe almost as much as hearing John Wayne speaking German in Western movies. :D |

I speak barely enough German to understand enough to not know what they are saying :rotfl:
I have used german from the befginning and one quickly can understand what the few thing relayed are so do not need to read the text. Once I did a reinstall and forgot to set it to German :huh: I can not imagine playing this with the pathetic english voices. If they had quirky German accent English I might understand some doing English but it is so pathetic and an immersion killer, IMO To each their own, I guess. Wulfmann |
All I hope is that they can at least find a good, authentic-sounding American voice cast for SHIV :yep:
|
Really dont care for yank voice over's, to many games with yank voices as is (that the 1 thing thats making me cringe about SH4), but luckily like always, I can redo the voices to English and/or Aussie. Did it to SH3, will do so to SH4.
The first time I head the german voices in SH3 I yelled at the PC "ENGLISH - DO YOU SPEAK IT MOTHER FÚ¢KÉ®" (I hadn't corrected the options to english, I did right after that) :lol: Yeah I have a short fuse ;) |

The moment i got the game i turned on the german speech and shortly thereafter the text went to german aswell. It really makes it a whole deal more of fun and seems to give it a little more as what one seems to be getting in english.
I did once try the english though, but it sounded so lame i instantly went back again. Being Dutch and living next to Germany i suppose makes it conveniently more natural for me anyway but after seeing Das Boot how could one play this game with the English option on ? It just is not the same... |
*shrug*
I played SH2 and now SH3 with English. Honestly doesn't bother me. When I'm being hunted, it doesn't much matter. Either there's tension from that or there isn't. Being in a tense situation and not understanding what's being said could certainly add to the tension, but I don't find it necessary. Maybe the game's just too easy for everyone else. ;) |

I also will never use the English files in a U-boat. SHIV will be another story, of course. |
Well, I certainly respect everyone's opinion, I guess the authenticity of the voiceover just isn't that big of a deal to me. To each their own, as they say.
And on that note, for anyone who does get a kick out of frighteningly authentic voiceovers... you must, must, hear the Chinese crew voiceover in Dangerous Waters! It is quite simply, the gold standard. :smug: |
