I remember fondly the days when having Load Station Environment uncheck actually worked. But sometime after the introduction of the Premium Graphics, this all changed. I believe CCP called it the Boost patch -yeah right. I'd been running 2 premium clients on my supped-up notebook, but no more. Now docked or undocked I got 8 fps on each client. I was forced to fall back to classic graphics.
There was still the horrible lag while docked, almost as if, despite being unchecked, the station environment was still being rendered in the background but just not shown. Adding to my belief of this theory was that station sfx now always played in the background. For someone like me who spends huge amounts of time docked, manufacturing and assessing the market, these sfx became pure torture.
I've petitioned again and again to stop the sfx so that I wouldn't have to resort to turning off sound entirely. But so far I've been ignored.
Please, if you've heard my pleas for help and agree with me, then give this thread a bump. Don't let it die. Make it into a petition that clearly tells CCP -WE ARE TIRED OF THIS ANNOYING CRAP SO PLEASE STOP IT. Sorry, you see I've been listening to those sfx for several hours today and I think I'm losing it. You hear that buzzing in the background? I think that's a phone somewhere in the hangar. Why won't someone answer it? It just rings and rings........

How dare you object to the Holy Scriptures put to song? Heathen.
Isn't there an option to disable station effects? A second option for disabling station sounds might be in order, but only so that I don't have to hear the rolls of duct tape being used constantly in those Minmatar junkyard heaps.

I have turned off sound ages ago but I would really like to hear that skill training is completed. (Yes I have EVEMon but I am training short skills). The sounds in station are too annoying it would be nice to see a way to turn them off.

there is a volume slider in the menu, and you can always unplug your headphones. i can think of more pressing concerns for the devs, like making the station sidebar a sidebar again, instead of a window so it stops kicking everyone's UI's around when they dock. - PvPers always say "GB2WoW". the message is that EVE is hard, and people just need to deal with it. wasn't it funny how when nano's started making it hard for *them*, that all went out the window? |

It would be way better, if you could actually understand what they say. In adjustable volume, of cause. Have the Amarr sing something like "All hail the mighty eeeeeemperoooooooor". A person in the caldari station might say something like "Remember to check in for our new Pocket Blaster. Small size, small price, big boom"... And in a gallente station, an operator could complain "The pilot of the cruiser with the license ID #28638 is advised to move his ship. We're forced to remove it in 5 minutes, as it's hindering undocking maneuvers".
For Minmatar - I don't really know. But you'll get an idea, for sure. --- "Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign for a diseased mind." -Terry Pratchett |

Give us more sound control, let us set the station effects level, and other separate sliders for everything (this makes many, an advanced sound level window is needed).
What I can think of to be separated :
-Station effects -weapons shooting (if you don't like your pew? pew!) -weapons hitting (limit the missile noise in guristas missions) -voice notifications (autopilot jumping and stuff) -eve voice output -engines & drone engine noises -strange noises of space.?. -music -others I forgot... -- Pocket drone carriers (tm) enthousiast !

Sound does not travel through a vacuum.... eve is a space set game.... 'in space no one can hear u scream...' unless u r on TS... anyways, ya, im in my ship, which is protecting me frome all kinds of weapons fire and the perils of being out of my pod.... and yet i can hear the sounds in station... the sounds of the jump gates... at least if u turn off the effects in the graphics menu... the sound goes off for guns and missiles...(BUG) But ya... some sounds i like... guns blasting, ships exploding.... but others.... can we get a button we can check? warp gate sound (BTW the new graphics are awesome, thanks devs) in station sound engine sound gun sound missile sound drone sound
can anyone think of any more sounds to turn off/on?
