Jäger voice actor

I know this is a bit minor but I was hopping if you guys could change this guys voice actor. To be honest it feels a bit awkward now that the skirmish commander is on the faction with the same exact voice actor. In addition, it is obvious that the Jagers voice actor tends to say that it is a Lieutnant, which is ironic since the squad is a bunch of high level fighters and not officers. I think that there are plenty of different other types of voice actors that could fit the role of these guys quite well. Stormtroopers and knights cross holders from the Wehrmacht could be a better replacement for this units voice acting.

Also, could you guys change the hockey for switching fire types? When mkb42 is upgraded, they get an ability to switch from auto to single fire, which is R. Typically I tend to spam the R button when I try to reinforce my troops so it would be nice if every time i did so that their fire type would not change everytime I reinforce them.

Yes, Jagers really do sound a bit weird, I agree.
I'd like to throw in some notes on Soviet voices too - for a Russian-speaking person some of them sound a bit off. I have absolutely nothing against using Russian localisation for Americans and British as the placeholder for the Soviet voices - it's really ingenious, and some of the voices are matched perfectly, e.g. the conscripts using Tommies' voices is very fitting as Tommy NCO sounds really young and boyish in Russian localisation. Besides, I'm just used to T-34s sometimes admitting that they're Shermans, or the Guards saying some Rangers' quotes, it has it's own charm really. :)
What really bugs me is the Sniper Ace's voice. I understand that you didn't want to give him the US Sniper's voice as it is already used by the SU Sniper, and instead you gave him either the Commandos' or the Paratroopers' voice, or maybe the Lieutenant's voice, i'm not sure. The downside to this is that he does not sound like a sniper anymore. As far as I can remember he doesn't whisper when in camouflage, and his battle quotes are now mainly screaming and something about pumping someone full of lead - that's not what you'd expect from an ice-cold professional, would you? :D
Besides, he refers to himself as multiple people most of the time. For example, he'd say "Ok, let's go guys" or "Yes, we'll go there" or something like "I'll send the men there". Multiple personalities disorder, anyone? ;D
So, what I suggest is just giving him the regular Sniper's voice. At least this would make him sound like a real marksman.

We have atm only access to the originall sounds (PE and WE).
Of cource it would be awesome to create own Ostheer voices but this is imho too much work.

.. lol


Oh well I'll see what I can do. Creating own voices isn't just too much work. It's also impossible to make them fit the units properly. Too much hardcoded stuff. It already took ages to get the PE/Wehr voices to work with the ostheer.

Not asking for new voice actors, just change the voice actor of the jager unit to another one of the axis voice actors, preferably stormtroopers or knights cross

Any updates whether there is going to be some sort of change involving voice actors?

I used the KCH speech IIRC.

For what? KCH actor for which units??
