Alright, so let’s get this one out of the way. How many of us have wanted the entire RvB cast as voices for Firefight in Reach? A lot right? Well now this I see as a BIG opportunity, as 343 could release several RvB voice packs, here are some examples:
Blood Gulch Bros: Red and Blue team voice packs along with Shiela and Andy $10
Project Freelancer pack: All Freelancer voices that were used in seasons 6-10 $10
Chrous pack: All Chorus soldier voices, includes Locus, Felix, and Malcom Hargrove $10
AI pack: All Ai voices used in RvB up until now. $10
Now a lot of you are probably thinking this is just a waste of time. To that I say ppppptthhh! (fart sound effect) Yeah, they don’t do anything in the long run, but they can make players play better. Ever since I got Buck’s voice I’ve been playing better than usual just to keep him talking. These packs would not only make money for the voice actors (and by extension RvB) but, also show 343’s commitment to it’s community by creating something the community has been asking for for years!
I think a RvB pack involving just the main guys would be most likely. I’d love to have Sarge and Doc/Omega voice things for humor purposes, and maybe Washington, Locus, or Kimbal for more ‘professional’ sounding tones.

How could you not want Caboose?

Because he’d be an obvious choice, no need to mention it since it goes without saying 
If they ever did a red vs blue pack they should at least have Church, Sarge and Caboose. But if they wanted to go all out they should offer two packs a red team, Sarge, Simmons and Gruff. Then also a blue team, Church, Tucker, and Caboose.

Caboose alone would be enough to want to buy. Seriously that be amazing to hear instead of Sarah Palmer but for now the Grunt or Nathan Fillion voice will have to do.
Voices of Blood Gulch pack idea.
My three announcers would be Grif, Sarge and Caboose.
The problem with pack is that there are so many RvB characters that it may be difficult for 343 to satisfy everyone.

RvB Reach Firefight voices.
Regarding ideas about new announcers. How about they’ll do Microsoft Sam - Master Chief from Arby 'n the Chief?

They couldn’t, because then they’d have to make the game rated “M”:.
YESSS CABOOSE COME TO ME
It would be cool if we could “combine” voices, like so you can have 2 different characters at once. For example, one kill, you get Sarge’s voice, the next you get Caboose. Maybe a max of 2 or 3, that would be nice.

Would be funny if they ever try.
Do they even still make those vids? I miss it.
I would probally like that but I think some main characters like chief, Sgt Johnson, and cortana would be better fitting.
I would not be ok with all of those packs I hate microtrancations/dlc as it is. If they were to do a RvB it should just be one pack and they are youtubers right. The packs could easily be available for free too they aren’t going to cost as much as Nathan Fillion.
They need to fix the announcers 1st I’m sick of them not talking the whole game some times. Which reminds me I think I forgot to post that in support unless I just posted it in the server/lag megathread.

Well here are a few problems with voice packs:
1: The VA’s need to be compensated for their time and talent
2: There will ALWAYS be a price tag on them
3: MT’s are gonna keep infesting Halo 5, might as well do something fun with them.
4: The announcers aren’t supposed to talk the entire game, only when you get a certain medal and at the opening/ending sequence to a match.
5: They probably take a LOT of time to create.
Alright now to address the RvB VO situation. 343 and Roosterteeth work somewhat closely together, look at the Halo 4 RvB easter eggs as an example. While Roosterteeth videos are not limited to youtube, it does seem to be their more popular location. And yes RT are still making RvB, they are currently inbetween seasons right now.
Well with that many great voices a playlist of your voices you collect would be a must have. I couldn’t just choose one to use so having a random selection of voices from a list made by the player. I still want something like this for assassinations as well

I get they need paid its just having the gold and silver packs should be paying for it. Microtrancations aren’t working well enough if they can’t fund every thing in the updates. I’m saying have a price tag and a grind for points to afford it. Not every body has every thing unlocked.
I’m talking about the announcers not saying a word gamer after game. No intro no nothing. The most I think it’s happened was 4-5 games in a row. Bosses and base changes some times don’t get highlighted randomly when the announcer is highlighting every thing else.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, I would love to have Donut as an announcer. He would be the toughest to pull off, but the results would be so worth it.
