Advanced Weapontry (sic)

Postby Ed » Sun Sep 06, 2009 11:33 am

In SVN I'm pretty sure some of the tutorial commentary replaces the word 'weaponry' with 'weapontry'. I've listened to these pieces outside of the game and am sure it's not right as weaponry does not have a t in it. Am I alone in noticing this?

It happens, oh well. I personally didn't notice.. So.....

I did notice, but as non-native I thought it was probably not a mistake :p
Maybe I should have asked anyway. Ugh.
Meh.

It's too late to change it now anyway. Recording a new take of this one will sound quite bad, as later takes won't match the voice exactly like it was before.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

The voice also says "Welcome to Nexius" when the name is spelled "Nexuiz". Has anyone else noticed this too?

And apparently so is weapontry.

Let us question not the voice lest we incure its wrath.

Going by the second result, it appears there is weapontry in Halo as well. This leads me to wonder which shooter was the first to include weapontry then.
