Waaagh! sound effect

I was thinking that it's a shame that unlike the banshee wail that can be heard by other players on the map the orks Waaagh! abillity can only be heard by the controlling player. Would it be possible to make the Waaagh! abillity audible in the same way that the banshee wail is?
I think it would add alot of atmosphere when playing along or against orks.

That's an awesome idea. I hope it can be pretty easily changed.

Yeah simple and makes a lot of sense.

Great idea.

Also, all players should hear WAAAAAAGH! CRUSH'EM UNDA DA DEFF ROLLA! whenever the battlewagon activates the deffrolla.

No matter where the wagon is on the map.

And it shouldn't matter whether players are actually in the game or not.

ALL PLAYERS.

Well on the opposite it would be nice to have scouts screaming out Let's throw a grenade precisely at this place where the enemy has a setup team and he won't see it coming for the Emperor! only be heard by the SM player.

+1 to this.

You can also hear them saying, "See but do not be seen" or whatever when they infiltrate which kind of defeats the whole point of infiltration.

If you're near enough then yes, you can hear it. I've heard them say it multiple times when we were facing each other

I think "let fly" is OK when throwing grenades but yeah, screaming INFILTRATE TIEM!!!! at the top of their lungs is pretty stupid. You can hear it through the fog of war even.

I know lootas will sometimes scream HUSH UP when infiltrating as well and I've used that to my advantage. Kommandos may do this as well.

Not directly related, but is there any way to make Space marine units shout "For the Emperor!" when they open fire, jump/teleport into combat, etc.? It would also improve the atmosphere of the game for all players. Not as if the "Brothers, return fire!" isn't good enough, but when it comes to Space marines, you can't overkill.
