The voice acting in this game is pretty bland.

[Reebs]

The units's va is alright, the soldier is a bit cringy but passable.

The biggest beef with the va right now is the announcer. It's literally text-to-speech!

Really, the main thing about RTS is that you should keep in mind is that players are going to hear the same ♥♥♥♥ over and over. You gotta break up the monotony with varied lines.

If an RTS that came out post 2010 doesn't have varied lines, it has a garbage voice direction, and stupidly bland.

I hope the devs will do something about the voice acting in later builds.

And no, unlike other posts where people only complain and bait people into an arguement, i'm actually going to try and change the announcer's voice into that of an actual human civilian colonial advisor with actual emotions and not text-to-speech, then release it as a mod.

are there voices? hmm, I never listened to them , was allways busy with giving orders, building, scouting etc.. I should listen next play :)

Yeah didnt really mind the unit voices. But i too hope that there's a bit more emotion to the announcer's voice whenever he announces an incoming horde. Would be good to hear some panic and fear in them too when it comes to the bigger hordes and outright terrified when its the final one XD.

Yup, which is why i'm planning to make a mod that replaces the text-to-speech with actual human beings. Should be done in a couple days or so, depending on the voice actor's part.

how its soldier cringy, he its just proud to be part of salving the humanity unlike others who just give up.

-Ranger: just want money to smash in the pub.
-Soldier: wanna be proud hero.
-thanatos: local drunk with a huge ego.
-titan: gentleman, who cares about the colony.
-sniper: serial killer, with a head exploding fetich.

i agree ranger voice get extremely annoying very fast.

I just find the soldier to be cringy in a way, hard to explain it, maybe that's just me.

They've already stated that the voices in the game are temporary place holders and will be replaced in the future.

I hope the announcer voice stays. I don't care about the voices of units, but I really like the announcers voice.

[Darkaiser]

I like the Rangers' voices for the most part, especially the part about 'last night was amazing!'

Is there a source somewhere? I actually like the current set personally.

It's not so much what he says, but how he says it and his voice in general. I like his voice and find it fits pretty good as a narrator. The voice lines he has are fine, but I wouldn't mind if they change them. But the voice actor himself, I find he has a cool voice which totally fits.

All of the voices are fine for what they are meant to do.

Except for it being text-to-speech :/

Text to speech is much worse than the narrator.
He has a pretty typical emotionless voice which fits the best for this kind of thing. All he is meant to do is tell you things.
