New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

Imho our current betty could use some work. To me it just sound like someone reading lines, not a battle computer. The voice needs to have a more computerized/digitalized sound. The lines should also have puases in it to make it sound more mechanical as well. (enemy mech.......destroyed) Also having multiple lines for a single action is a bit overkill. The mechwarrior 2 betty was hands down my fav. If only we could use those sounds..../dreams about it

P.S. This is just my opinion, has nothing to do with the dev team. :)

While I loved the old Betty, it was too slow, and sometimes the events would queue up..

Critical hit.... ER PPC..
Critical hit .... heat sink..
Critical hit .... medium laser

meanwhile you've taken like 4 more crits and your engine and gyro are shafted.

We all agree more betty is needed. And there has been some voice acting already. But did they only record this few lines?
Can the voice actor be asked again to record some extra lines for us nostalgia warriors?

Once I get a half decent microphone (i.e. low to mid end studio mic), I'd be happy to record some lines for anyone willing to stand hearing me drone on about various critical heat exchangers and destroyed head components  :P

Personally I would like to hear a warning for low ammo.

"Ammo Low" when down to 1/4 ammo

"Ammo Critical" when down to 1/8 ammo

"Reload Fool!" when down to 1/16 ammo

"You're Screwed!" would be my preference when empty

I think the Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries has the best one

^^^^ sigh....good times, good times

I watched 5 or 6 of those videos and stomped down memory lane, then legged my enemies and laughed at them from their blind spot... ::)

Then I thought about the JF trial you have to complete in a KitFox....FUUUUUUU

But yes, Devs you get those voices into the game and I'll do involuntary things in my pants...or something, I'll be happy....
