so... when will all of these make the return??? xD
I know no where near on the 'Majorly important things to do' list on PS2 but still curious about it :)
(PS1 Voices and macros - I always had Greenhorn)
Don't be put off from the first few minutes of P1

Planetside Voice Emotes/Macros (P1) - YouTube

Planetside Voice Emotes/Macros (P2) - YouTube

Found these and wanted to share - brought some good PS1 memories back as well as just being funny :)

But being serious - I would like to find out more about firstly *IF* there are plans for extending on current macros, and to what extent will they be extended to with how many and what they will be aimed at (taunting/social/gunplay/teamplay/etc)
As well as if more voices will be brought out (with that in mind, will you be able to change your voice through payment)

I want a "hello," more taunt variety, "All clear," and "Yes/no".

I want to be able to shoulder my weapon and throw a salute, for Chrissake.

More voicemacros, different voices, and alternate appearances are all crying out to be available in the store, earning SOE money! There's a genuine need here, people!

Absolutely want "Hail!" back. I occasionally would hail a vulnerable NC trooper if I had the jump on them. If he said it back I would let him go :) Never could show mercy to VS.

How about some VW macros where the W is 'where' to supplement the new player experience and given how confisubng it is the newly new player experience too.
VWG - Where is the generator
VWG - Where is the spawn room
VWF - Where the F did he come from

Or the F macros?

VFD - WTF am I supposed to be doing?
VFG - WFT is the point of this?

**Edit being serious we do absolutely need 'Hail' or 'Hello' back

I'd always 'Hail' and 'Cease Fire' and send a tell for a knife fight when in the same area of another enemy - only to be gunned down violently and disappointed :(

Always up for giving it another go, but with many CoD/BF players joining the game (not meaning in a bad way) I'll just be lining myself up for more disappointment xD

Edit: @ Figment - Good read :)

I liked to sneak up behind snipers and say "GREAT SHOT!" when they fired, regardless of their aim. Was such a passionate voice-emote.

It was always "Repair Our Deployables" and "Destroy Their Deployables" for me.

(PS1 Voices and macros - I always had Greenhorn)

I loved the Greenhorn because he sounded so panicky.

Warning Sniper! "ok dude it will be ok... just one guy with a gun and a long reload time chill out"
Defend our Generator! "Are you crying? Seriously get a grip"

My favorite V-C-F "Follow Me"
in the roughneck voice is sounded like an old drill Sargent... hell yeah you would follow that guy... the Greenhorn voice? Uh... no dude you're just gonna die LOL.

That and the uh... limp wrist-ed V-V-E "Super"

probably one of my favorite parts of ps1 not gonna lie

if you macro'd at someone you always got something back... and you could make hilarious convos.

"Defend our vehicle facilities!" or "Defend our Spawn Room!" for me. :p

Or Med Term. Defending and attacking the Med Term always helped win every fight!

The old memes are the best.

There are no badass voice emotes in ps2. :/
I miss my Stalwart, I don't care if he said "Fabulous".

They were one of my favourite features too Bags. PS 2 has removed 3 of my favourite features from the original - Voice macro's, Cloakers, dedicated mag driver.

I swear the devs were out to screw me over.......:rofl:

I actually forgot about these. And yes, at certain times in the game they could be hella funny. I too would like them to come back. It would be ideal if they expanded on the number of macros - while also building in a bit of random "flavor".
I always wanted a macro that escalated in sarcasm. The word "Really", then "Really?", ...then, by the 5th time in a row that you hit the same macro - it would have that obnoxious Jim Carrey (Ace Ventura) over-enunciation. ......I know, it's a dream.

So, I vote to add:

"Really?"
"Whatever" (also escalates when repeated)
"Bite Me"
"Are we there yet?"

(imagine a long Sundy ride...with everyone spamming "Are We There Yet?")
Good times.

What about Voice macro spam? Sometimes certain guys could make it damn annoying....still, worth adding. People gotsta find & maintain a sense of humor....
