Fireteam understands redneck only!

[hauch]

Back to the original topic of Fireteam not responding to voice commands....

They won't do something that can't be done at that exact time... so when I get nothing back from them, I just bring up the menu and make sure I can do that option....

What I don't like is that you can't select breach for every doorway, but only certain ones that the game has programmed as "hot," even though normal doorways have enemies behind them too.

I grew up in central florida, the same trailer for the last 7 years of my life(live with my older sis and her husband in their 4 bedroom house now), and for the other 11 years of my life, moving every few years, only lived in one house my entire life, and I've never been more proud of my family or myself then I am now, growing up I was always worried about what other people thought of how I was raised, and brought up, but over the past 2 years or so, I've realised that having pride in your home, and yourself and your family is what this ride is about.

Everyone thinks every man who wears Wranglers and a cowboy hat is just a racist, which is completely untrue, I actually have black in my family, my father went to an all black school, my fathers basketball coach in highschool is like my other dad, I was best friends with all the black kids at my highschool, and had more black friends than white. I played baseball for many years, and 1/2 the time my friend Artez ended up staying with my family for a few months. Don't jump up and think we're all racist, because we're not, no one likes N-bomb's, we do not mind black people, there's a HUGE difference between the two.

I love having my pride in where I'm from, and I love my black friends just as much as I do my white friends. I've taken a black friend or two to rodeo's, and took them mudding with me before.

I realise this thread wasn't redneck bashing, i just wanted to get that <font color="#FF0000">*censored*</font> off my chest, and vent a little had a long day at work

Somehow I didn't see this post...did you edit the original? Nice post, man, and more power to ya. Hopefully some people will understand that just b/c a person uses the word "redneck" doesn't mean it's used out of dislike. And, like you said, just b/c you tout the rebel flag...it doesn't make you a hater or a racist. Some people only attribute the rebel flag with racism...they're totally neglecting everything else with being a rebel/confederate. And that's just it, it's the confederate flag...not the racist flag.

Thank you Kowboy, finally someone steps up to the plate.

whoa people, i said it as a joke u morons. and for all you rednecks out there getting offended for some rediculus reason. . . i guess your not proud to be one. so why are u defending it?

hmmmmmm?

anyways, i think i am right, someone with a southern drawl did the voice recognition and that is why i only understands southerners.

There's nothing better than having pride.

Don't think all rednecks are racist, most pretend to be, just to keep their tough redneck image with their redneck friends.

I used to be the same way, pretend to be a hard *** hick, and hate everyone, but then last month, my best friends older brother( he was like my brother) was murdered... Sitting at the funeral, with my other family(his entire family is like my family, and my own families family, his mom and mine went to school together, etc.)...was the hardest thing ever, and it made me realise lifes too short...just too short

Our image is ruined by these self righteous KKK dwelling trailer trash rejects, who pretend to have pride, the only pride they have is in their racism, but I for one think these guys are just to full of racism to even start to realise they are just as redneck as us, what is a black guy from the ghetto, if not just a black redneck? Most rednecks come from poor families, trailer trash, what is a ghetto black man, if not a black redneck? A lot of the black guys I work with feel the same way, and explain to me how stupid they've seen some people act.

I feel sorry for the way some people act, they are just too dumb to realise certain things, I love the south, and I will fly my rebel flag everywhere I go, and I will speak of the south just as any man speaks of where they're from, I love it here, and I'll never leave. Nothing makes me happier then being on a front pourch with a few cold drinks and some good food, and no one other than my momma...or a few friends...

Heritage not hate guys, wish people's views about southern folk would change, but it doesn't. I almost didn't get my job because they were afraid it would be a "Conflict of Backgrounds", I had to calmly explain that my jeans and fish shirt, and camo hat, didn't mean I was a racist prick, just signified the things I love.


There's not much of a difference between a low-class black person, and a redneck...

They like to wear their baggy clothes, and all of them do...
We like to wear our tight jeans, because all of us do..

We like our camo hats, folded in the bill...
They like their hats backwards with their favorite team logo on it

They like their music because it makes them think of home, and is real
We like our music because it hits right at home and is real

They take great pride in their homes, no matter where they are, and what conditions they are
We like our homes, no matter what conditions they are, or where they are, or what they are...

We both love chicken


Pride, the one thing every man needs, black or white, brown or red, fat or skinny, hated or loved....

Instead of saying "practice what you preach", how bout you relax, and have a laugh. Example: Blue Collar TV. They're red necks, who make fun of red necks. Not in a condesending way, but a making fun of your freinds way.

Hahahahaha that was great! You get 10 points.

I was wondering what that was about. I would say hold fire or some other random command and they would go "Sir are you feeling alright?" or something along those lines.

[Extremist]

Hell, you think you've got it bad, at least you lot are half way there, for us brits it's a living nightmare, they refuse to understand the simplest of commands in plain english, so i did have to resort to talking in american, and whoop de doo they understood me clearly.
