"Commander under attack" voice in SupCom compared to TA

Postby Flynn » 29 Jan 2013, 12:37

One thing that has disappointed me about SupCom aside from the forgetable unit styling was the lame sounding "Commander under attack" voice in SupCom. Compared to TA's simple alert siren the voice that says "Commander under attack" sounds seriously lame to me and I was shocked and embarressed when I first heard it.

should be a big deal to change this for yourself, just replace the soundfile (i'm pretty sure it's one of the .sbx/w/v whatever files in the instalation folder)

i have never played TA.

how does the siren work there?
can you hear it ALWAYS when your com is under attack, or just when the attack begins (like in FA)?

it would be a great improvement to hear a sound when your commander is under attack (i mean a constant sound).
in FA when your com is under attack, you hear the warning sound ONCE. when your com gets constantly attacked by something weak, you will never hear the warning sound again!
my com had to explode a couple of times until i realized that the warning system is pretty messed up.

+1 for the blinking commander warning

In one game when playing as Seraphim my comm was under attack by multiple stealthed Sera T2 PD and I did not realise this until it was too late as no "commander under attack" warning sound played. I was also zoomed out far enough not to be able to see the turret laser effect impacting my commander so was completely oblivious to being hit.

Do other factions commanders always play a warning sound when hit by PD etc? Can anyone else confirm their sera comm doesnt play these sounds when being hit by certain factions PD? Maybe I am imagining it. Will have to test this...

Sounds like a bug to me.

And it's turret, not "turrent".
