PR Video Idea - Chatter

Gigman · 12-12-2006, 12:08 AM

(This was posted in the info form and im not so sure if thats where its should go, so I made a new thred, but I don't know how to delete my other post! Admins Help!!)

OK sorry for that onto my idea

What I think can make this video a lot more appealing. Voip chatter. Like cut to a chase view of the cockpit of a plane and then you hear like "Bravo Six this is Fox One, Bogie on my six requesting support" and then you hear "This is Fox Wilco Six " and then the pilot proceeds to fall back and totally destroy the other plane. And you then hear "This is Fox One, Tango down". This is just an example of how the VOIP could be used and more importantly recorded; it even could be put in after the pilots have flown using more "professional" voice actors. Just PR is about reality, and a real military talks to each other... a lot. Like I said this is just an example, it could be done in helicopters, tanks, APCs, cars, and on foot too! Just there is a felling of professionalism implied with Voip chatter and real solders/pilots/drivers are professionals.

haha yeah ill do it with my pneumonia that causes me to sound like a 10 year old chain smoker

Well thats the thing, if you were a really good pilot, you could fly and then later during the post-production you could add the voice actors. Any one think this sounds cool?

Just in case you were wondering, I just relized that I never said that this was about the PR promo video...
Sorry!

I think the "Bravo Six this is Fox One, Bogie on my six requesting support" is a tad misleading since I have NEVER heard anyone talk like that in PR. I think painting a false image of PR is a bad idea and could cause some upset with player's that download it expecting such articulate comms.

A sidenote. Bad idea to give a fighter the callsign fox one since thats the callsign for an AIM-9 launch, and it would be "Splash" when you take down an emeny target. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't "Tango" the callsign for terrorist's?

If you want to hear stuff like that, try Lockon....it's actually like that. When your on VOIP with the American's it's like your in a film, but I digress. Don't make stuff up to make PR look better!

Honestly I would speak like that if PR required it, but it doesn't.

IIRC neither is the map, or for that matter, have you ever seen people flying in formation?

Maistros · 12-12-2006, 10:23 PM

yes, actually.. I usually try to start a pilot's squad with people i know are good pilots then we fly together.

From what I gather in movies...

Unidentified aircraft are called bogies
Hostile aircraft are called bandits

Tangos are usually not used to identify aircraft.

Exactly, but that was an EA/DICE concoction, assuming you are referencing the lies that was the first BF2 trailer. The current background PR video tells no lies or implies nothing that isn't there.
