Issue with voice actor choice


(Jared_Sol) #1

I selected the Cockney VA for my character. After about 3 matches it changed to the irish VA, David Whatshisface. So I remade my character and continued. Same thing. I tried again and, yet again, the voice changed back to David’s. Other people have reported this problem, and it seems to be a bug in character attributes rather than in sound files - the VA is stuck as the Security version (calls enemies bandits, regardless of side) and my teammates often call enemies Bandits as well, in the irish accent.

Also, it seems in certain servers I even default to a basic archetype, as do other players.

Is there any way to fix this without losing my level 12 character?

Can anyone help me?

I guess that’s a “no.”

Just posted a thread about this myself, I’ve had the same problem. So far it, for me, it has only occured with my character(s) using Ryan McCluskey’s voice. Haven’t found a fix for it yet, though sometimes it seems to do the correct voice, but for the most part gets stuck with David Yip’s.

Also, with the player archetype/appearance seems to be a rendering thing, doesn’t seem to be an actual bug, just seems to give you a generic appearance until you die/change class/disguise yourself. Once one of those occurs, it fixes it and you look as you should.

Here’s my thread, as well:
