Battlefield 3′s VO Producer On “Dialed Down” Language and Incoming Teamwork “Updates”

MP1st - Obviously, DICE made a number of improvements to Battlefield 3 after data was gathered from their Beta. However, there was one aspect in particular that was noticeably “dialed down” since the Beta.

Yea i noticed i don't hear "Get a load of this @$$hole"anymore.

Also they need to give something to snipers that can help against vehicles like they could on BFBC2.

[cyborg6971]

Yea it was nice that you could call in mortors as a sniper. I miss that as well.

[ThichQuangDuck]

they need to balance mortars so they are not infinite and they cannot just sit in back of spawn mortaring all game.

[Da_Evil_Monkey]

I wouldn't object to ammo for mortars, if they actually made them worth using. They are terrible after the patch.

[Hufandpuf]

They need to bring those VOs back. The game is M so who cares if people are offended. They can always turn off the VOs.

[ThichQuangDuck]

Agreed the game is mature for a reason and it can easily be turned off if people do not wish to hear it.

[damnyouretall]

acually you cant turn off the vo's. but you can change it to german or whatever if you have children around. i think the some of the cursing is uncalled for. "pushing my shit in" i dont need to hear that to enjoy a game. if someone curses too much all the time it gets on my nerves anyways. but thats just me and my opinion

[krazykombatant]

Rated M for MATURE.

Its supposed to be "realistic" view of the battlefield.

Don't really expect to go to war and go... "Oh my GOSHHH they are sooo mean... seriously guysss you sooo silly."

English VO is toned down but not some other languages :)

Just one example: "Nate up your asses, you pricks!" (shouted when you throw a nate under heavy suppression)

[suicidalblues]

Hmmm, by chance do you mean 'nade? As in grenade?

[PixL]

Sure, mistyped that, thanks.

[RememberThe357]

I don't understand why you feel the need to tone down an M rated game. My character screaming slurs always makes me laugh, why DICE would you want to take that from me?

And stop worrying about this sh*t and fix the f*ckin VOiP on my mothaf*ckin PS3!

[SITH]

Even the VO got nerfed

[xxLuckyStrike]

DICE!!! Please fix hardcore mode!!! ITS THE SAME AS NORMAL MODE!!!! Remove the gawd damn Mini map like in bf: bc2.. I don't give a toss if i can't see my health meter.. An please don't allow a 1 foot curb to impead my foward progress for fu€ks sake!!! u know how many times I've gotten hung up and shot because of a fricken 1 foot curb!! Out!!

[elli0t]

lol best stand up about being offended http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[Mikeyy]

They should have at least given us the option to turn the language on and off. Just taking it away is not fair. Who plays rated M games and complains about language? People piss me off..

[PhantomT1412]

I was always surprised how my russian medic needed to throw swearings at the mates he was reviving... not offended though.

[sovietsoldier]

lame just plain lame to take out vo for whiners.
