Has anyone else noticed that now we hear things other characters say that we used to not before? For example, I just did an event chain in frostgorge and heard other rangers call to their pets that used to only be heard client-side. A guildmate of mine says they now hear other characters mark targets. I love this! This, along with the guild chat ‘bug’ fixed… I wonder if they were always supposed to be this way, and were always bugged before, but now they are fixed, or that this was unintentional, and currently the ‘bug’?
But I vote keep it!

We know that with Heart of Thorns upcoming, they’re getting back the character voice actors to record new lines for our PCs. It’s only fitting that in doing so, they’ve gone over and added other lines, like the aforementioned turret deployment line. And with new lines recorded, why not immediately put them to use?
We saw the same thing earlier when they got Trahearne’s voice actor back for his new lines in Season 2. They took advantage of the chance to re-record some old dialogue for him, removing the “This won’t end well” battle cry that everyone made fun of in an attempt to reform his image, and altering some of his dialogue in the Personal Story as well.
Never had an issue with those.
The only new things I’ve noticed is callouts by engineers when using turrets.
I’m not really referring to it as an issue, but that is kind of what I mean. I haven’t heard engis calling out their turrets yet (but I also haven’t played much since the fix). But this is what I wonder, were we supposed to always hear them before?
Again, I think this is great. Can finally hear a few new things from other players than the usual “I can outrun a centaur!”

The things I heard said from other rangers were definitely things that always existed in game and not new lines, but you could only hear from yourself as a ranger. So my main, who when switching might say (as a norn female) “Come here!” or “I chose you!”, it seems now everyone around me can hear as well. Although, as Xiahou Mao mentioned, new lines would also be cool! I just haven’t heard any yet personally.
Like I said, I love this, and definitely something I hope is/was intended all along

I can hear a Mesmer charging their Mantra even there’s no Mesmer around…

I don’t think any of them are new, but if you never played certain classes you would never have heard them before. It certainly sounds to me as if you can hear more of the nearby callouts.
I haven’t played my Warrior since the fix….any chance they fixed the backwards Adrenaline callouts?

Yup this is what I was trying to explain and why its cool! Good catch on the warrior… wish I could test it now if I was home!
