Charge screams need to be removed

Mess Room

Just noticed in my first game this year that running around and stabbing with a knife surrounded by enemies is easier than charging at a single enemy, because the charge scream alerts the target from far away.

→ no soldier screams like an idiot charging at something, certainly not well trained/tired soldiers during ww2. its annoying as fuck hearing the screaming all the time and having to play the game on low audio due to that. makes the game look more childish than fortnite. just remove that BS and let the soldier run like a real human being: making breathing noises and nothing else.

EDIT: obv making it optional is also great.

how about instead of removing it, give an option to turn it on and off, removing it will ruin the drama that some of us like when doing it.

During night attacks, the intent was to use the bayonet only. While men were trained to scream during a normal bayonet charge , night fighting was to be done as silently as possible to maintain surprise; rifle magazines would be loaded, but with the bolt closed on an empty chamber.
this game doesn’t have any night battles yet even though it is possible to make it happen just from the editor. I think removing it entirely due the current daytime only maps is a bad idea. maybe if the add night time maps, they can add a system that disables the scream based on a maps time of day.

Hell no.

Let me larp as a kamikaze Katana wielding Japanese Chad.

If I fall under mg fire, I still honour my ancestors.

which is why my thought was to make it optional to turn it on an off in settings. there several ways they can honestly do this

There is no option.

You scream “Banzai” like a real Emperor’s man, or you don’t charge at all. You got to mean it.

Got to come from the guts! After a good sake jug.

True…

Japanese paras don’t scream banzai, and put shame to their families.

USA paras don’t even scream “Geronimoooooooo”…

Works like an option

Nothing, makes my day happier when playing Japan/US than to hear a kamikaze Katana wielding Japanese running amok :rofl:
Don’t see to many doing the charge anymore, squad wise,
i would just stop in game and watch them, very funny :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, that would be nice. You can watch tanks back behind buildings and move around when they hear it coming.

my only issue is that very often charging fails to start, but the screaming still happens which looks ridiculous.

yeah about that… a failed bayonet/ suicide charge initiating is the most annoying that happens in this game… not just that it failed to activate but now just wasted useful stamina that couldve used to run away from the enemy

Yes! I’m not a fan of that. I try to watch for the words at the bottom of the screen about holding button to charge but I do it all the time.

Making it an option would be nice. I’d keep it turned on if the VA’s didn’t suck.

extremely annoying. agreed 100%. even more annoying is the constant charge failed bug status you get everywhere all the time, specially when failing in the start of a sprint from cover to cover…you just fail the charge, hit the air and stay there right in the open looking at your melee weapon like an idiot, looking for a reason. perhaps the melee weapon ran out of batteries?
