Please, help us to make the sounds better, if you consider all of them not worth to be implemented. Give your own samples of the Korean Voices you would like to hear in-game!

Each sample should contain only 1 voice.

Each sample should be an in-game voice example, so it means only voices used in games will be considered.

Please, also provide feedback on the current voice samples. Consider that we are either Americans or Russians, so need a clear explanation of what do you mean with this or that abbreviations.

They are Japanese Vallter, not Korean voices...

Yes, all four are "not so good" as most have mentioned... I'd feel silly doing them myself (though I've lived here for 28 years... my blond hair and blues eyes might give it away...) Perhaps a friend of mine might be willing to give a try.

I am a Japanese as I register myself as information.
It does not want to be recognized for the nation of the country except it.

I understood that you stuck to this vote.
It is you to run this game; should decide it to like it.

And my clear hope to want you to add the change function of the voices to an optional menu if it continues being told funny Japanese.

thank you.

I would prefer that we keep the sounds in English, but with a heavy accent.  Will there be an option for hearing these in English (or whatever the native language is?

"yu-baku sen de yokatta na"
The way of talking is peculiar to the person of western part of Japan.
"yu-baku sinai de yokatta na"
sen and a sinai difference -- "gutta", "wanna", and get to want to -- is it the difference which is said?

I don't agree that "all samples are rubbish", but I do agree that there is little to no "tension of battle". Although I don't think many tankers in WWII were screaming at the top of their lungs or sounded very worried about anything anyway.

I speak Japanese as well and voted on #1 as it was most well spoken and had the best tone of voice.

Sample #1 sounds the best, second place being Sample #3.

Although, I feel like there should always be more urgency in what my tank crew is saying!

#3, or #4 are both right

#1, the worse,  口調が不明瞭です(unclear tone)   
#2, a little long gap between the ammo ruin and after blablabla

in my opinion, #4 is the best. 弾薬損傷ammo damage is so clear! :rolleyes:

i go number 1 from the lot.

careful when asking for 'tension of battle'
this is the voice sample for something you have to hear REPEATEDLY while playing sometimes...

i tried multiple sound mods to replace the stock sound with something more... 'atmospheric'
needless to say after a while it gets on your nerve and you just want it to shut up.

some tension is good... but not so much that you quickly get annoyed by it after several repeats.
A spoken line with powerful emotion in it is great when you listen to it once... okay twice, less so third times... and gets REALLY on your nerve after the umpteenth time in short order.

They all sound like they're spoken through an empty cup.  If we're going for silly, lets get George Takei to say lines.  He could do them as both normal and with his "flair".

I agree there needs to be more passion in the voice. I would really like to see a Japanese tank tree.

Best to worst:
#3: clear tone, somewhat fits the mood 6.5/10
#1: unclear tone, better fits for mood 6/10
#2: clear tone, awkward pause followed by an overly dramatic ending 4.5/10
#4: clear tone, completely lack of mood connection. Person sounds overly relaxed and casual. 3/10

Overall comment:
Needs improvement on mood matching. If the ammo rack is hit. I'd expect the tanker to be SCREAMING with somewhat of a panicked tone, followed by a less agitated but more reassuring tone. The following word painting should describe the mood for the Seiyuu (Japanese Voice actors).

"KUSO!! OUR AMMO RACK IS HIT!! Ammo rack is holding at 55% integrity, sir."
"SHIMATTA!! THEY GOT OUR AMMO RACK!! Ammo rack is still holding! Sir!."

I recommend the tone in the film SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO (Uchuu Senkan Yamato 宇宙戦艦ヤマト)

I agree #13 #1 is better than others.

But all sounds like kinda stupid :blink:
The phrase "Yubaku sende yokatta" are seems superfluous and unnatural sentence for me.
we know ammo didn't blow up cause we still alive.

the most viable in-game which I feel can be in the game is sample #1, sound-wise. the others kinda eek!
but honestly, I think you guys can come up with much better ones?

Sample two, in the tone and pitch, speaks volumes about panic.  The others don't seem to convey concern.  It seems as though they are cool with the damage.
