In Response To: Re: How to make an alien language ... (Jay, the Younger)

: heheh... Finally the secret is out! Ironically this was less a "screw
: it" decision and more what came out of the marine speech development.
: For some time during development we had the sarge and pvt. jenkins as
: placeholder for the elite and grunt respectively except everything was
: forwards. There was some good laughs at that time as the elite would tell
: you "Sit DOWN B*tch" and the grunt "The Sarge is
: wasted...lets go!". Two things that came out of that time were that
: we liked hearing the grunts in english (hence Joe's session to record more
: grunty appropriate speech) and that we really liked the color of Scully's
: voice pitched down and understanding it was not as important as
: understanding the grunt. How many of us appreciate chucking a grenade
: around a corner and hearing a grunt say "leader dead...run
: away!" and knowing you can charge in and mop up. Sooo with that in
: mind we took some pieces of Scully's speech reversed and pitched down and
: tried to match up inflections with the various AI states in which we
: wanted the elite to talk. Adam Tews did a lot of that work and he did a
: great job finding good snippets that didn't sound too reversed. Hey we
: fooled ya for a while!!

: Cheers, JAY

Does this mean there could be another food-nipple easter egg hidden in one of the Elite's phrases? :)
