"It has been a slugfest today. Only two left standing. No surprise to see Spectre on the field. He spends more time doing victory laps than fighting these days."
^.^ just got this one makes me happy

[famguy1]

I would spend hours in Solaris just to hear Duncan Fisher talking.

[CCC Dober]

There was a suggestion to have him broadcast Inner Sphere News, which I'm perfectly happy with for the time being. But there can be no doubt that he is in fact the voice of Solaris. You simply can't have one without the other. That man turned MW4:Mercs into a fantastic experience with incredible replay value. You'd be hard pressed to find a comparable person with his voice talents and being into the MW franchise. I dare say it is impossible and that's a good hint for PGI right there.

[Scorpioneldar]

i read his quotes in his voice but never out loud that ruins it for me

[William Petersen]

I understand that this game is set 36 years before MW4:Mercs, but I, for one, am content to accept that mild discontinuity to have The Best Solaris Announcer return.

"... And Specter ka-pows them again!"

Can't have solaris without Duncan Fisher.

[Tedarin]

Here's Duncan Fisher in MWLL.

We sure do need Duncan in the arena matches!

Him doing ISN would be great too... He could add extra flare to the commentary when reporting on border raids or updates on the Clan invasion...l would like to hear what he would say about the Mad Cat...Something snarky I would hope!!!

Lol @ "snarky".

Love Duncan Fisher! Solaris won't be the same if he isn't there :,(

They can just rename him. I would love to hear him again while I play in the lightmech matches (my fav arena was light mechs).

[Nomad Wanderer]

He also did the Solaris voices for MW4:Mercenaries. It was very cool to get a 30-45 second commentary about the Solaris arena during matches.

It would be an excellent way to add additional depth.. I'd love to see something re-occurring.. and extra 2-3 minutes of voiceover added to the game every few months... commenting on what's going on in Solaris/the rest of the IS.

If there is a top 5 voices from MW.. He's on the list, he'd be an excellent addition to this game.

[Landeraxe]

I've played MW4 so many times now, and I always loved Duncan Fisher announcing the fights. I'd love to have him back!

[Uzi Foo]

"Welcome to Solaris, now let me show you the sky!" Was one of a favorite quotes.

Well then just go play a Solaris match in MWLL. Duncan Fisher is alive and well in the MWLL Mod.

[PhelenWard]

Solaris. YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TimberJon]

I vote yes but also give someone else the opportunity to get in on the action. For an interstellar sport event like Solaris with how many people tuning in? It should have two anchors. Duncan and a co-anchor. So they can take turns calling things out or banter with one another. Someone can type up creative summaries of what they said in last nights epic match and post it in an ISN newsflash.

For MW4 Mercs, it made sense that there was only one announcer. But full blown MMO style Solaris? If it takes off, two announcers would be nice.

[vettie]

Never cared for Solaris - more team oriented player here, BUT, I played Solaris matches over and over and over in MW4 just to hear the voice of Duncan Fisher and his wise cracks.
I dont know if he wrote the material he used, but he certainly did a great job with the voice.

I am thinking the timeline is off in MWO IF they have a Solaris, but that doesnt mean we cant have a slot for Duncan Fisher (George LeDoux) somewhere in this game (hoping so anyway). Like suggested if he does the ISN news or maybe in city battles (like today most cities (especially here in the south) have some sort of earlier warning broadcast system (stuff on TV or horns screaming across the tundra) maybe Duncan can be the voice shouting to the city that it is under attack - evac - blah blah - the Devs and George is very creative COME UP WITH A USE FOR THIS VOICE. Duncan Fisher is legendary in MW video versions!

[SnowWolf25]

DUNCAN!!! YES!!!!!
