Title: Naughty language
Post by: chrisb1220 on 19 Dec 2002, 05:00:29
I found a song that goes perfect with my mission, buuut there's a couple of naughty words in it. Is that ok, or should I try to get an edited version of it? ???

Well, as long as it's not too obvious and Wolfsbane doesn't have a problem, and the song suits the mission, I say sure.

The game is rated 15+.  If you can shoot humans in the head and make them die a bloody death, a couple of HIDDEN four letter words shouldn't hurt.

But that doesn't mean the use of bad language is considered appropriate, just for the sake of it.

 But then again, if you can find an edited version... that would be better.

same goes for missions i guess - as Anmac said the game is 15+, but i know of many of the forum members here who are below that age...

now any1 can agree that in the heat of battle soldiers will swear, shout, go mad and kill all their buddies - and for a realistic mission then some swearing would be fine...

but ive played missions where there was constant swearing and this really distracts from the mission....

and as for the music you found, go get goldwave (http://www.goldwave.com). with this you can edit the song yourself and delete all the swearing.

simple  ;D

Is it 15+? DidnĂ‚'t know that,  ;D. But who cares, if youĂ‚'ve played soldier of fortune you have seen it all....

chrisb1220 -

Do be aware that you would likely be infringing distribution rights on the song.

Oh - and if you really want to demand more mission reviews, think more carefully before sending hate mail next time.

15+?  I'm holding the CD case right here and it says 'Mature' for the rating, which is 17+.

Which countries are you in where it says 15+, i'm in the U.S.

I'm not saying there should be a bunch of language in the game but if it helps express someone's anger it is useful.

It just sounds weird to hear someone say "Darn it to hell" instead of "Damn it to hell"

The country doesn't really matter.  My point was that it's a game rated for persons mature (ish) age.

A little is ok, IF it's used correctly and maturely.

Anybody that has played Antipathy will know what I mean.

WTF??   :-X

Anyhow...  As it's been said... If there can be killing and it's rated mature +...  then I agree with the good use of swearing.  (I know I say Fu** when I stub my toe and that's nothing compared to being shot!)   ::)   ;)  

When it comes down to it... Who does it hurt to use some of the most descriptive, versatile words in any given language?    >:(
