FORT-936523 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.

The fact that Guards are now playing some voicelines in random order is cool. But the fact that it is the same voice for all Guards and it doesn’t even distinguish gender, so Guards with female character cosmetics sounds like men, that is just silly and it is breaking the vibe.

Voted for a fix.

Hey Flak, please tell me that this is going to be a feature and NOT be removed? I have been waiting FOREVER for guard voice lines and music. I would be really sad if they were completely removed next update.

Also 2 other questions: Are there plans to bring Battle Royale bosses to creative? and what about Convoys? the patch notes that added the Armored Truck Vehicle mentioned guards being able to drive vehicles, but it didn’t say how. is that implemented yet?
