Just wondering whats going on with sound clips with crew??
My picards (all 8 if them) say engage, while all 5 janeways say lets get started / respond well to threats....while only 2 star sisko has any sayings making my other 5 versions of him mute. This applies to many many other crew in the game.
Meanwhile, my RAF Bashir has had his "im going to like history" phrase removed, while all new crew have no sounds clips at all.
Ok some guest characters may have image and sound rights, but there cant be licencing issues with most regular / core cast or crew already providing art and clips, so why the discrepancy??
Also can we have more vsriety on the sound wben you complete a mission...a snippet if the other series themes would be great.

Agreed though. We seem to have fewer and fewer voices
Sound off cuz the ads, but some of them play full volume regardless of what you have it set on.
But I also would say that my suggestion is not worth the effort.
Therefore, a rotation of crew speech might be a better choice. That is limit the total storage or bandwidth needed and switch who gets speech week to week or month to month. What ever makes the most sense and limits the amount of programming resources needed.
I'd been wondering about the disappearing sound clips. Thought the game had been loading wrong or something.

Sorry, sounds are sharp, repetitive, annoying, and I don't want anybody else to hear what's already irritating me in the game, let alone as an unwilling participant.
Ha! Or what day is a good day to die
Also the relentless TNG sound clip every time a success is encountered is... well.... awful
Probably not a rights issue for the missing clips, at least, since 1701 Jadzia still has all her clips from the same episode.
I went ahead and submitted a bug ticket, and the response this morning asked if the issue started before or after the last update, and whether I'd tried restarting the game, etc. So the customer service reps at least don't think it's intentional. (Or don't know and gave me a form response. Whichever.)
I do wish we had more quotes on newer characters! I'm absolutely in the camp that would welcome an Admiral Patrick card if he came with "That's a stupid question," and finally getting Niners Worf added to the game without "Find him and kill him" was a real blow! (I didn't get the card; does he even have a repeat of "We will destroy them," from that episode? There's nothing listed on the wiki.)
True! I occasionally want to yell back at Scotty, "Yes, I know you mean the original enterprise. You really don't have to keep going on about it..."
This, only this
