We are working on fully implementing 5.1 support. The preset system turned out very good, which we will expand upon. For those that don’t know: the presets are needed so that sounds can be made most comfortable on various device types (speakers, headsets, different types of sound cards etc.).
We are aware of player’s feedback, know about the questions regarding female voiceover and Japanese localization. This is not an easy task, since the game is provided in 26 different languages. The localization for different languages is being recorded in the countries where we send requests to. We have about 30-40 vocal messages, each being recorded variably (multiple times). But we know what players want and certainly take this into account. – Alexey Tomanov (lead sound designer at Wargaming)
