I need a NARCed warning

When Hit with NARC
‘Warning, Foreign Object Detected, Radar Silhouette Compromised.'

When NARC finishes (note shouldn’t mechs with hands remove NARC beckons faster)
'Foreign Object Removed, Radar Silhouette Passive Masking Restored’

I agree completely an audio warring would make more sense.

I would like the messages to 1) start with the important information and/or 2) be spoken faster. The incoming missile warning is an example of the problem.

Opening and closing weapon bay might be useful.

At the start of the match while powering up I would love to hear my BB tell me the Planet I am on, the Ambient Temperature, Local time, and any other information listed about the planet. Posted Image Posted Image

Yes I agree Bitching Betty needs an expanded vocabulary especially when it comes to foreign objects/NARCs. As for the voice why not give options for voice styles like a clanner/IS version and even faction influenced versions.

Missile bay doors would help me A LOT, especially with my splat builds in CW so I know whether they are open or closed without having to ask a teamate or dance with my shadow.

Found this thread when looking for a way to disable that annoying "weapon jam" warning. I KNOW THE F#&*ING WEAPON IS JAMMED WHEN GLANCING AT MY WEAPON LIST!

That would be awesome, just like MechWarrior 2. I would also love it if Betty replaced all of the Clan announcer voices about mission details and status. She already says "base is being captured", so it would make sense to extend her role to messages like "point alpha: secured", "enemy progress at 50%", and "mission successful".

The developers should seriously consider adding more dialogue to Bitching Betty, such as:

Enemy Mech Destroyed
Chain Fire Engaged
Group Fire Engaged
Mission Successful
Mission Failed
Weapon Door Open
Weapon Door Closed
Arm Lock Engaged
Arm Lock Disabled
Enemy Power-Up Detected
Internal Ammo Explosion Detected

Furthermore, players should be allowed to configure what audible warnings we get from Bitching Betty (checkbox list in the Options Menu). Thoughts/Opinions?
Ammo explosion is already a line
