My vote goes to Duncan Fisher.

I´m happy, if they give us a female voice! No matter for me, who speaks it. But the voice from MW2 would be cool!

I just want voice. As soon as possible.

[Amarell Renders]

A little nostalgia would be oh so nice. Would also mix very well with the MW2 music I listen to while playing

[1ceTr0n]

Do, or do not. There is no try on this PGI.

Is the pope catholic? And do his priests have fun with little Johnny after the daily blessing?

Voice work? She just record a few Betty lines didn't she or am I forgetting big chunks of the game? Personally I don't see why any of the Betty feedback has to be the same really. Not every aircraft has the same voice...some of them speak Russian and might possibly be male for some reason. Then again I don't see why the Clans and Innershpere would even have the same sound clips either....that stuff usually gets replaced well within the several hundred year span it took them to return.

That said I wouldn't mind her rerecording the lines either. Just seems like it should sound a little different if they did. Maybe even have a few different Betty's.

I agree with this. Different technology, different B**chin' Bettys.


The same voice for ever mech type would make it less real.
It would be perfect to have her voice on relevant clan mechs... when they come around. Or some sort of pitch variance at the least.
It would be awesome to hear the original again though.

i'm all in for her voice or Heidi Ernest (voice of Karan S'Jet) but it would be nice to have different voices for different mech's

[Hageln]

Yes, please! When I first started the game I loved everything except my mech's soulless bleep blooping computer. So much lovely nostalgia upon hearing her voice in that video.

[B B Wolfe]

I vote me, but, you know, I would.

-Update: From the Devs "we are into Recording Now" Voice actress must have been chosen
Also if you like this Forum topic as me as a freind in the forums as we share common interests

What is a good mechwarrior game without the Voice telling us where we are and whats going on or just everything is ok with our mech?

Well Carole Ruggier who did the Original Mechwarrior 2 Voice acting Has expressed that she would love to do the voice over for Mechwarrior Online on her Facebok Fan Page all PGI need to do is ask I see that you had a voice in your teaser trailer so maybe you already have a voice actress lined up just thought id throw this out there What ever the case is i will be playing this game to death

http://wavs.unclebub...om/mechwarrior/ (Link provided by Broceratops)
Carole's Voice are all the Computer: marked Audio Clips


Carole's Voice


Not Carole's Voice to clear things up she never voiced Mechwarrior 2 Mercs that was a diffrent actress although im sure she would use this Script if we wanted it

From talking to Carole i asked her what parts of Mechwarrior 2 did she voice she gave me this responce

"I have no idea! You are the experts it was a long time ago and I confess I never played the game, I just had a wonderful time recording what seemed like hundreds of cues, not long after I'd moved to LA. My first voiceover gig and accidental at that. I recorded a long list which got slotted into the game. I'm more familiar with the 'tone or rhythm' than anything, so I"m not much help."

Hundreds of cues suggest to me she was a big part of the game



When i offical Asked Russ Bullock what he thought this is his responce



Atleast we know the Devs have her on their mind which is always a good sign especially in this late Development stage they are still thinking about her all signs to positives but as Russ said no promises but we can hope

Thanks to everyone who voted on this Poll and showing the Devs what we want to make this the Best mechwarrior game any further news i get i will post here i am hopeful if the Devs keep seeing this Post coming up to most viewed and on the front page constantly we will press our opinions

Once again Many Thanks From me and Carole Ruggier

When Carole was told 76% of you want her back her responce was:


Like + Share With all your battletech friends

Lets Bring that Mechwarrior Feeling Back From 1995 in to 2012

To be honest the actress from Mercenaries was my favorite, but Carol is a close second and I'd be thrilled to have her back with MechWarrior Online.

[KovarD]

Carole Ruggier is clearly giving us signs! \o/

I just screenshoted right before she deleted her commentary:

I really hope Carole makes it back into voicing the game. Man... It'll send chills of nostalgia down my spine.

I'm not sure I really like Carole Ruggier's voice specifically, but I think having the option just for nostalgia sake would be awesome. And I think it's awesome that someone did that much foot work and she seems more than willing to do the job.

Kudos and props to you sir.


That said, I think the best option is to actually have a handful of voice options for audio cues and warnings, though it would require a greater voice actor budget. Give the player a selection of 4+ male and female voices to choose from for personal taste.
Should Carole Ruggier's be an option in that scenario? Why the hell not.

[Viper69]

I am more interested in the mustang in the friends picture on FB

[alpha assault]

That would be my Profile Picture Viper

[CarnifexMaximus]

If it truly is Carole I will be very pleased... But seriously, I would pay major $$$ for special voice packs having certain celebrity voices... I don't seriously think this is gonna happen. But how cool would it be to have Samuel L. Jackson Doing his best "Jules Winnfield" character. "m***** f**** critical hit, internal ammo explosion... Be cool m***** f*****"... I also have thought of compiling audio clips from "cosmos" by Carl Sagan to get his voice edited to get him to say "reactor online, sensors online, weapons systems online... All systems nominal". Carl already sounds like a computer so it would be perfect. However Carl Sagan would not approve of the path humanity has gone down in battletech and wouldnt want to be the voice of a fusion powered death machine.
