WARNING! You are in range of enemy artillery!
This is a post about me raging over a really tiny nitpick that is ruining automations for me.

I don't know how they haven't changed the frequency of this message in all the time I've spent playing this game. I stopped playing Automations for this dumb message being spammed from across the damn map. It is SO ANNOYING. Every 5 seconds reminding me of exactly what I already know. Thanks, I'm in range and the sky is blue. Why can we not limit the frequency of this message? Mission control can shut the hell up, respectfully. The range of the artillery is like half the map, and approaching it takes nigh forever with a small squad so the message will get repeated 20-30 times before we finally get rid of the artillery. We don't even take out the tower because of the artillery anymore, we take it out to shut up the message.

The second this message comes on we all just groan in unison. WHY?

Totally agree. The only warning I really need is when stuff starts to explode around me. I can figure it out, don't need the 'voice'.

It's hardly that bad. Just go blow up the artillery and drink your Liber Tea

I would appreciate it if the message only played for squad members who are, in fact, in range of enemy artillery.

It isn't that bad, the first few times.

and then it happens again. and again. and again. and again. and again. and again. and while you are being pushed. and while you are overwhelmed. and while you are dying. and while you are chilling. and while you are trying to talk. and when you are trying to listen. and when you are trying to play the videogame.

"just go blow it up" read my original post

Poor Pelican-1 being blasted on the forums for something that isn't his fault. It's mission control that's mic-spamming about artillery.
