Epic - Character Voices Question

[UnrealGrrl]

Something I always wanted to be possible and hoping it might be this time around...

Will audio characters voicepacks be able to be keyed to specific events?
So for example - if you get a headshot only a particular taunt or group of taunts would be used. Are the current vps setup that way and will we be able to take advantage of that if so?

Can anyone from Epic comment? Its something thats been asked for in the past - just wondering if it made it into the UT3 mix...

ps the little we've heard of the audio voice & music so far sounds great... thx

What were you hoping to accomplish with this? It sounds really good, I mean I can think of a few things but did you have something special in mind?

Obviously it would add some real character or personality to have weapon-kill-specific taunts, or multiple variations of a taunt (because after all who says the same thing the exact same way in the heat of battle?)

[UnrealGrrl]

right... well the idea is like i posted above being able to do this would allow stuff like:

Headshot specific - "Boom - Headshot!"
Weapon Specific - "Combo Kill!", "Eat Biosludge", "Hammertime!" etc.
Race Specific - "Die Human", "Necris scum", "Alien crisp anyone?" etc.

...and any number of others.

whenever im making a voicepack i always come up with taunts or lines that would be better or only useable if said in a certain circumstance or by a certian person/race. so it'd be cool if there was a way to flag this kinda stuff.
i dont remember but i thought the robot characters had a few like this but it may have just been in their voicepack and not a robot flag...

[ImAFreakinHippy]

awesome....yeap thats all i can say... i concur
