t34577685 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 First,it's a wonderful game. There is a little question .why canadian soldiers don't speak French ? I found they speaking american English when they move ,fire and wounded. By the way, the game is little expensive for a Chinese fans .HAHA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieseltaylor Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Most Canadians don't speak French and certainly didn't in WW2. Which seems a little unfair given the good regiments that did. Perhaps when the Free French arrive there can be improvisation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 And Germans don't speak Russian, Polish, Korean etc. even though there were Hiwis of multiple nationalities in Normandy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Viajero Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Fair question indeed, but when you see these posted it can only be a sign of an otherwise excellent game! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuirassier Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Yes, last time I checked, not all Canadians were Quebecois . That being said, the French-Canadian Regiments performed well throughout the war. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachinus Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Just out of curiosity: Was any of the Canadian units present in current CW campaigns quebecoise? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Smash Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 While I agree that they don't need to speak French, I will admit that I lose a little of the Immersion factor when I hear the southern American drawl come out of the Canadian ("take a look at that", anyone?). Admittedly, it is nitpicky. Maybe' I'll make my own mod. They could "take a look at that, eh" or "take a look at that, ya hoser."

Sergei Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The only French Canadian unit in Normandy was Régiment de la Chaudière. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Wotherspoon Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The only French Canadian unit in Normandy was Régiment de la Chaudière. You forgot a few... 27th Armoured Regiment (Fusiliers de Sherbrooke) Régiment de Maisonneuve Fusiliers Mont-Royal All in Normandy by July 1944. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Maybe' I'll make my own mod. They could "take a look at that, eh" or "take a look at that, ya hoser." Hee hee, we only started calling each other hoser on a regular basis after 1980. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 a'boot time ya got on that, Lt Smash, eh? Funny thing is I still cannot tell my own accent on the word "about". I lived in Redmond WA for four years and many people I met upon hearing me say about would light up and say "oh, I though something was different about you - you're Canadian". On several occasions I had my friends try to show me the difference and I could never hear it. I though I sounded just like them. That caused no end of laughter on their part:D I just cannot do an American accent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'm pretty sure that someone said about CMSF that although the game came with the Canadians using the US voices they are actually different voice files and can be modded. I assume the same holds true for CMBN, I'd love for some Canadian to undertake the task. Of course then all the Canadians will sound as if they came from your part of Canada. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, appears that la Chaudière regiment was the only Canadian Francophone unit to participate in the D-Day landings, not the only one to be deployed in Normandy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
