sorry, when it comes to europeans you have this backwards. it's the existence of euro blood in american-born that make some of you look good i'm afraid.

as for that american sperm you mention... there's something about the climate (or air pressure maybe?) that makes american's who came to fight in europe shoot blanks, so to speak (or it could be a general problem, I don't know). sorry to be the one to shatter the illusion for you, but you know, you're better off knowing than remaining ignorant of the truth.

How about putting in those Top Gear chaps, Hamster and Clarkson.
Or we could put in James Bond, or Crocodile Dundee for the aussie effect.

Geez what is next! The dutch? *Scratches head* not a bad idea!

Hey if it wasn't for European settlers, all of you wouldn't been born! We dumped alot of prisonners and idiots overseas and evolution hasn't done you very good.

you have obviously never heard an aussie accent, let alone a 'posh' one. wanker.

secondly, it's also totally obvious to me that RIck Myall in his young persona was the logical choice to do the voices. here is a sample of what could be heard when someone initiates a kick or mutiny vote

Be thankful that at least the SAS don't call "thanks, love" when you say thanks.

They're funny though because they're so shite.

There should be more choices in the voices, we could do with a...

"Get out of the way you bloody idiot"
"What hell are you doing you stupid pillock"
"Get down"
"You tosser"

That would be awesome. Can the same people who bitched about bunny hopping please get EA to do this? They listen to you guys.

EA's theory is that white people are smarter hence more likely to survive longer. Therefore they don't need pansy body armour

I did notice that any 'skilled' job (engineering/medic/specops/sniper) was w white guy whereas sheer firepower was the black guy (assault/antitank/Support)

The SAS are NOT posh! And they certainly do NOT come from one area of the country. There are those who come from Manchester, Portsmouth (Myself, though of course I am not in the SAS), Leeds, Newcastle, anywhere in Somerset or Devon, to name but a few. So WHY, may I ask, do Dice implement the Americans with a rough and ready, gruff sort of accent, and the brits with a bleedin' "Oh, let's sit down and talk this over with a nice cup of Earl Grey tea"?

Bloody Hell, I hate how they stereotype us.

Dude no offense but what goes around comes around. You Brits sterotype use Americans, well anyways like what I said.

When they call for a medic they don't say "Skylight", they say "Starlight".

I fucking hate the SAS Accent. I live in freaking London (although my stats say im frm the USA). When i go out chances are ill hear hundreds of voices, none of which sound like EAs idea of it. Why dont they actually come to Britain and fucking sample a varity of the people.

More than likely they have used some shitty $5 a session "vocal" actor. Who actually can't do nout like the English accent of sorts.

I TELL YOU WHO SHOULD HAVE DONE THEM????? - SEAN BEAN!

Well, for all who have watched Bravo Two Zero, we associate a lot of SAS culture and movement to that film. Regardless of that mission, it paved the way for better service now.

BEST: "ON MY SAY. MOVE!"
BEST: "STARLIGHT TO THIS POSITION / STARLIGHT!!!"

Yeah he'd do them quite well actually but EA wouldn't pay that amount of money for him to do them.

It would be nice though
