Voice acting = delayed release.

I'm for the split. I'll be pleased to play the campaign a second or a third time(with voice acting).

I think the voice acting will take another few years. :doubt:

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
Idem. According to you, we are going to play BWO more than once.

First playthough, no voice acting.

Second playthrough, voice acting, I choose a different side.

Third playthrough, voice acting, I choose the side I chose in the first playthrough.

They want a non-voice over release.

There will be one release, the full campaign with the voiceacting.

There are no Shivans in Blackwater Operations.

There are no Americans in Baghdad!

Seriously though, sorry, no Shivans. They heard there's a vague possiblity in BWO's timeline there are three Alpha 1s and decided not show up. (FS2, Derelict, and BWO's. I suppose Twilight's is also possible.)

Not sure that's what everybody meant.  Another interpretation would be: are you releasing one big download, or one campaign pack plus one voice pack?

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
We want to play the campaign ASAP, even without voice acting. Many good campaigns like PI aren't voice acted.

voice acting = delayed release

And since we don't care about voice acting... :)

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
Just for clarification, BWO will be a non-voice acted campaign, correct?  If that is true, then will there be a voice acting patch later on?

I don't mean to beat a dead horse to death, but with the posting spree regarding voice acting, I'm left slightly unclear on the status of voice acting.

This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address occurred during the same week.  This is an ironic juxtaposition of events--one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication, while the other involves a groundhog.

Re: Things you want to know about BWO but were afraid to ask
No.

We want BWO now and the voice acting pack in a second moment. The ones involved in the project want an unique release, and we don't like the idea.

Ok, fine.

1) You guys said that you don't like reskins. So is the Hydra retired now? How can you explain this?
2) Will there be any "unique environments" other than asteroid fields and nebulae?
3) Are there any campaign-persistent variables?
4) Will any factions use red beams?

How much more of a time delay will the voice-acting cost you (your estiamte)? :doubt:
