KamakaziSparow: Time Traveling Salesman!; +8|6414|Somplace or Other

I was busy editing my .loc files when I came across these:

PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_engineer Grease Monkey here, anything broken?
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_medic I'm a Medic, where do you want me?
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_specops Specops requesting a target!
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_assault Assault, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_sniper Sniper, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_antitank Anti-tank, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTIN_TM_support Machinegunner requesting an objective!

Looks like at one time there was a button for individual players requesting objectives... and there's more:

PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_tankI'm in a tank, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_fighterJet fighter, fangs out!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_bomberJet bomber, requesting a target!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_attackheliAttackhelo, requesting a target!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_transportheliTransport helo, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_apc APC, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_jeepIn a je
ep, requesting an objective!
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_TM_antiairAA-vehicle, requesting an objective!

Looks like you could also use it for vehicles...

PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_engineer I'm an engineer.
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_medic I'm a Medic
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_specops I'm Specops
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_assault I'm Assault
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_sniper I'm a sniper
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_antitank I'm anti-tank
PLAYER_REPORTIN_C_support I'm a machinegunner

Looks like you could report in as well...

PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_tank I'm in a tank
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_fighterI'm a fighterpilot
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_bomberI'm a bomberpilot
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_attackheliI'm in an attack helo
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_transportheliI'm in a transport helo
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_apc I'm in an APC
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_jeep I'm in a jeep
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_antiairI'm in a AA-vehicle
PLAYER_REPORTINVEHICLE_C_bombshelterI'm in the hole

You could use it for vehicles as well...

Note the last line of code... It looks like there was a bomb shelter at one point... strange.

Is it just me, or is this missing content?
I'm asking because I have never found it in game.

Edit 1:
Another one:

PLAYER_SPOTTED_C_enemywbspottedEnemy wheelbarrow spotted!
PLAYER_SPOTTED_SL_enemywbspottedEnemy wheelbarrow spotted!
PLAYER_SPOTTED_TM_enemywbspottedEnemy wheelbarrow spotted!

There was a wheelbarrow vehicle?
I swear EA is pullin' our chain.

Edit 2:
You could detect enemy satilite scans?

COMMSL_SCAN_warningenemysatscanEnemy satellite scan detected
COMMSL_SCAN_warningenemysatscan_altHostile satellite scanning our position

And appearently you could yell out that you were out of ammo, or medic bags, etc.
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_reloading Reloading weapon!
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_reloading_alt I'm reloading!
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_reloading Reload!
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_reloading_alt I’m dry! Reloading!
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_outofmedic Wait a second, I'm out of bandages
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_outofmedic_alt Hold on, meds are running low!
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_outofmedic Wait a sec, out of bandages
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_outofmedic_alt Sorry man, we’re 86 on meds. Hold on
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_outofammo Wait a sec, I'm out of ammunition
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_outofammo_alt Hold on, ammo is running low!
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_outofammo Wait a sec, I'm out of ammo
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_outofammo_alt Sorry man, we’re 86 on ammo. Hold on
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_recharging Recharging
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_recharging_alt Hold on, recharging
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_recharging Recharging
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_recharging_alt It’s recharging

You could yell out if grenades were coming...

AUTO_MOODGP_SL_incominggrenadeWatch out! Grenade!
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_incominggrenade_altGrenade incoming!
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_incominggrenadeGrenade!

More evidence of that "laser marker"

AUTO_MOODGP_SL_sendingtargetcoordinatesSending laser target now
AUTO_MOODGP_SL_sendingtargetcoordinates_altMarking with laser now
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_sendingtargetcoordinatesMarking target
AUTO_MOODGP_TM_sendingtargetcoordinates_altLasing target

you could be recomended for promotions:

AUTO_RULES_youbeenrecommendedforpromotion_altYou have received a promotion recommendation

Extra running low on tickets messages:

AUTO_RULES_runningreallylowonreinforcements_altWe’re losing men left and right, do you copy?
AUTO_RULES_runninglowonreinforcements_altWe're taking casualties, over

Abondon ship?

PLAYER_TACTICS_SL_abandonship Abandon ship
PLAYER_TACTICS_TM_abandonship Abandon ship

Extra base attack messages:

AUTO_RULES_losingcontrol Our position is under attack!
AUTO_RULES_losingcontrol_alt Enemy is advancing

Retreat?

PLAYER_TACTICS_SL_retreat Fall back!
PLAYER_TACTICS_SL_retreat_alt Drop back! Pull out!
PLAYER_TACTICS_TM_retreat They're blowin' us away! Retreat!
PLAYER_TACTICS_TM_retreat_alt We're getting wasted! Fall back!

This is getting to be a very big list, so if you could help out, submit your strange .loc files here to compile them.

max: Vela Incident; +1,652|6825|NYC / Hamburg

there's loads of unused stuff in BF2. there's also a some of these in the sound files

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

RDMC: Enemy Wheelbarrow Spotted..!!; +736|6823|Area 51

Looks like that that they really screwed up the end result, cuz with that in the game everything would be sooo much cooler.

KamakaziSparow: Time Traveling Salesman!; +8|6414|Somplace or Other

This stuff should totally be added in the next patch, if there is one.

EA could possibly redeem itself if it added that and a buddies list in the next patch... (If there is going to be one.)

Yes, I have heard some of these, when I turned my sound from Low to High. Some others are used when you enable EPX or what ever the Creative calls it.
