Bulletpoint Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I noticed the British troops sometimes yell COVER ME while stationary in position. The Americans only yell that when they are quick moving (which makes more sense)... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it makes sense to keep yelling for covering fire all through the day, so that, when you finally decide to make your move, your buddies will be well aware and ready to support you Or maybe it was intended to have a campaign with US troops fighting alongside the Brits, so that they could take turns yelling COVER ME and LET'S GET SOME NOISE DISCIPLINE OVER HERE Edited May 21, 2016 by Bulletpoint 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicky Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Brits shouting 'cover me' is either, depending on if they are Scotish or English , buying a round of drinks when they discover they have insufficient funds on their person and call for the nearest person to pay for it instead, or in the Englishmen's case simply calling for a tea cosy... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Meanwhile in the rest of the Limey Army. Taffy is bending down to pull up some leeks. And Paddy is (feels tap of granddad's ghostly finger on my shoulder) shouting " ~#'%##£$% ~'@~##%%&% ing English Officers trying to get us all killed again".

The old trick of having someone pay for rounds with the promise to pay it back after the war, then get killed in battle... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markshot Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) I love the irony of games. The constant chatter by your soldiers in CM or GTOS when you are making a stealthy move. Or in Ghost Recon I am creeping through the brush with my sniper rifle and my spotter/security teammate shouts: RIGHT BEHIND YOU. Fortunately, the OPFOR AI is probably hard of hearing. Games can be funny! Edited May 23, 2016 by markshot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
