Depends how natural it is.

A radio call saying "Soldier, make your way to the mesa north-west of your drop point" could work.

A spectator saying "Drivers, the end of this race course is also the start line" is definitely condescending and inappropriate.

It’s pretty misleading that you’ve removed this line from the surrounding context.

November 24, 1995, in my case.

Rather more people would pick October 10, 2007.

Seriously, I don’t know where this hate is coming from. Is it the idea that a “level” is a maze to be solved? Because there are other styles of gameplay, some where conversing with people is in fact part of the fun.
