Hello internet strangers,
This is a public service regarding the radio intercept ability on two of the Soviet commanders.
It is not 100% reliable
Throughout the game unit callout may not occur. Unit callout appears to be reliable during the early game but as it progresses unit call out is increasing unreliable. This was tested and verified by community member kreatiir as well as myself.
Balance or bug?

It stops showing messages but you can hear voice that says what unit is built. I dont know if it calls all units or not, but I usually can hear what I need.
Anyways, you can't intercept all radio talk so it may depend on Rngeesus

It would be great fun if you could use a misinformation ability to provide wrong information!
7:36 An elite Tiger Ace has arrived!
The Lulz to be had, as well as believable misinformation. Would need to cost a ton of munis though for balance...

I confirm.
Sometimes sum crazy shit comes out the radio.
I heard this song yesterday, dem crazy germans partying hard at their HQ
On topic; Indeed, sometimes the intercept isn't quite intercepting things.
I think that's pretty good to not intercept everything. More balanced.

I think there should be a text log of all intercepts that you can toggle because it is WAY too easy to miss audio cues when your announcer is saying a million things at once in the mid/late game.

Dude it's a 0 CP ability, what you propose is too strong I think.

I agree. I think its fine for where it is in the tech tree. I really wouldnt care if missing things was by design and not just obviously a bug.
The PTRS's are fine as they are. Whenever i'm up against Guard Infantry, I always have to be careful with my vehicles or the Guards will completely destroy them. Good range, good damage and fairly cheap; if anything, the PTRS should nerfed since it's ridiculously good for the price. Even in the hands of Conscripts, the PTRS's are extremely potent.

Me too. I don't know how audio cues get queued up, but I think if there are a lot of actions there's a chance of it being completely suppressed in favor for more recent actions. You tend to hear more things towards the beginning of the game when units are just being built, which in combination with the minimap ping makes it very easy to know what your opponents are doing (2 guys on the left went T1, 1 guy went assgrens, a scharfschutze is now available, etc.).
Messages do pop up, but are rather easy to miss when there's a lot going on.

Too strong to be able to read the information that is being provided? No comprendo.

It should just work as intended, show all message and queue the audio.
I think it´s more related to the game not being able to show up all the info or it there being some kind of limit implemented. For example, i can´t think how this ability could work on a 4v4 enviroment.
Little proposal: what about letting you toggle which player you want to hear about?
My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Messages do not always pop up. I'm starting to believe it is a bug. Message line limit sort of things where you can only see X amount of lines before everything else is dropped.

Nope can't be kreatir, this song is not available on Youtube in Germany. Radio intercept must be bugged.

I know, right?
Stupid germans, always ruining everything(yes, I live there too).
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Actually, its GEMA copyright protection across whole god damn germany.
Basically we have 50% less youtube then the rest of the world and probably only chinese have it worse.
