Calathea Sata State War Academy Caldari State 2637	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:16:00 - [1] - Quote Please describe how you enjoy your EVE sounds. Everything turned on? Music only? UI only? Effects only? Etc. Myself: UI only.
ACE McFACE Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 42	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:18:00 - [2] - Quote Everything turned on, why would you not want to hear the sounds of giant lasers? I don't listen to the provided in game music because its all boring ZE GOGGLES, ZEY DO NOTHING! (Not wearing them so don't waste your time reading this sig)

Red Templar Raging Ducks Goonswarm Federation 26	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:19:00 - [5] - Quote No. But I actualy like eve music. Especially deadspace tracks. But since eve is most fun when playing with other people, and best way to communicate is via voice (ts/mumble/evevoice/whatever), sounds only distract. so they are turned off most of the time. All of them. For Love. For Peace. For Honor. For None of the Above. For Pony!
Mina Sebiestar Mactabilis Simplex Cursus 16	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:22:00 - [6] - Quote All on for most part sometime different music,but lazor sounds are starting to bother me one cant zoom out and not hear them.

Jada Maroo Mysterium Astrometrics BRABODEN 363	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:28:00 - [10] - Quote As far as I know the only purpose of sound in Eve is a wormhole alarm system.

Halcyon Ingenium Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 2	Posted - 2011.10.28 07:33:00 - [13] - Quote All but the music, but that only because I'm not given over to listening to much music. My only problem with the audio is when I am listening to my own music, and the EVE music kicks in when I pass through an acceleration gate. That is ******* annoying; I want to listen to Flash Gordon by Queen, not some random techno track, when I have acquired the penchant for mission running. The loser in any fight consols himself with a moral victory. Thus is the beginning of slave-morality.

malaire 91	Posted - 2011.10.28 08:32:00 - [20] - Quote All sounds OFF in EVE. If I want music I use youtube.

Mal Darkrunner Zero Tau Research Institute 15	Posted - 2011.10.28 08:38:00 - [21] - Quote All sound except music. I do like the EVE music, but when I run missions I get really irritated when activating a warp-gate, and the pleasant music I'm enjoying is replaced by that bloody annoying mission track If I could turn off (or better still nuke into oblivion) the "mission" music, I'd have the EVE jukebox playing too...
Cpt Fina The Tuskers 67	Posted - 2011.10.28 09:06:00 - [22] - Quote I have sounds off so that I can listen to music while playing BUT I do love the sounds in Eve, aswell as the music so sometimes i put it all back on.
pussnheels Vintage heavy industries 146	Posted - 2011.10.28 09:08:00 - [23] - Quote i have sound On but i will turn it off when there is a lingering sound , i thought ccp fixed that but apparantly not all of it Or when dual boxing i still sometimes have this terrible windtunnel sound I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire
Jace Errata Cobalt Valkyrie Industries The Ambivalent 16	Posted - 2011.10.28 09:13:00 - [24] - Quote I have all the sounds on except the music. The problem is, even with the master level all the way up, EVE's sound is terribly out of sync with Windows Media Player, so I usually have trouble hearing it. Let's...just assume there's some kind of signature here, 'k? ... ... OH WAIT.
Norian Lonark Black Thorne Corporation Black Thorne Alliance 2	Posted - 2011.10.28 09:16:00 - [25] - Quote All sounds on though have effects turned down a lot. Depending on my mood I will be listening to eve music or my own tracklist, atm I am back listening to the eve music.
Roime Blue Republic RvB - BLUE Republic 3	Posted - 2011.10.28 09:46:00 - [26] - Quote All sounds on, music from iTunes Sounds are an absolutely vital part of the UI, I can't imagine playing without. Decloaking sounds, locking sound (yes I have auto-targeting on for faster reaction to being targeted), shield/armor level alerts etc. Also, the sound designers have done a very good job. Wormhole athmosphere is awesome because of the sounds <3
Akrasjel Lanate Naquatech Conglomerate 146	Posted - 2011.10.28 10:20:00 - [27] - Quote EVE has sounds

The Offerer Republic University Minmatar Republic 36	Posted - 2011.10.28 11:14:00 - [29] - Quote Mixed. All sounds except music are always on, no matter the situation (missions, fleet, solo pvp,...). For music, it's different depending on the situation. - Sometimes it's off. Usually when doing fleets. - While doing missions, industry and other carebear stuff, EVE's music is usually on @ 10-15% volume. It nicely removes the silence and can be in the background at that volume even if I'm on teamspeak. - I use EVE's jukebox to play some non-eve music while doing solo pvp. I don't like having multiple applications opened at the same time and EVE's jukebox does the job pretty good.

Htrag The Carebear Stare Hydroponic Zone 19	Posted - 2011.10.28 12:13:00 - [33] - Quote This topic makes me butthurt considering all the great sounds that have been removed from the game. Pod SQUISH sound... gone. Warp disruptor wompwompwomp sound... gone. Cloak / Decloak sound... gone. I literally hate whoever made the decision to remove those. Whatever "dev" it was that removed the pod squish sound probably never even logged into the game.

M1AU Rheintal Underground Rising 15	Posted - 2011.10.28 15:24:00 - [37] - Quote Using one client: Sounds turned on. Using multiple clients: Sounds turned off. Because Sound from multiple sources always bugs with WINE.
Taedrin Kushan Industrial 129	Posted - 2011.10.28 15:37:00 - [38] - Quote Sounds on, music off. No environment sounds, so no annoying station choirs, gate chatter, drone noise, turret effects, etc... I keep sounds on, because it is a useful tool when semi-afk or when my attention is divided: the auto-lock feature makes a noise when ever someone targets me, which is always useful to know. Likewise, the autopilot notifications are useful for me to know when my freighter pilot has reached his destination.
Amro One One. 8	Posted - 2011.10.28 15:44:00 - [39] - Quote What EVE has sounds & music. OMFG when did this happen, like last patch? 3 years i have played and have had sound disabled.

Morganta Peripheral Madness The Midget Mafia 186	Posted - 2011.10.28 15:46:00 - [41] - Quote EvE has sound??? The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy

Kyt Thrace Lightspeed Enterprises Tactical Narcotics Team 5	Posted - 2011.10.28 15:56:00 - [44] - Quote I turned off eve sound 3 years ago. I sometimes have three clients open on one computer. Plus I watch TV or a DvD whenever playing eve. I should turn it back on sometime, because I forgot what it sounds like.

Valkris Arkayne Perkone Caldari State 9	Posted - 2011.10.28 16:03:00 - [46] - Quote I play with all sound ON. Especially the music. I burned some of the music tracks to CD and play it in my car. My kids have come to love 'Beneath The Asteroids', and one even plays it on the piano.
Isacc Lemmont Artemis Veil Federation 0	Posted - 2011.10.28 16:06:00 - [47] - Quote UI, sound effects, music is on if I'm not listening to something else in the background so yeah I run with most sound on, I like the sound of the engines or lasers firing or missiles launching (but missiles launching needs an update, it sounds the exact same one as 5 years ago >_<)
Magnus Orin Wildly Inappropriate Goonswarm Federation 47	Posted - 2011.10.28 16:06:00 - [48] - Quote Wait, Eve has sound?
IM0001 Dawn of a new Empire The Initiative. 0	Posted - 2011.10.28 16:38:00 - [49] - Quote All on except music. Zune pass > EVE Music. Sadly IMO Most of EVE's Music just about puts me to sleep. Also using Mumble, when others talk, it automatically lowers the volume of the game so I can hear them perfectly.

Jenshae Chiroptera 75	Posted - 2011.10.28 23:09:00 - [55] - Quote Jukebox crashes my EVE client with LAME errors. I listen to Winamp and keep EVE sounds off. CSM do you think? No matter the changes, high sec people chose the safests. Lots of stick and they will leave. Half the problem is the players in null sec; we do not want to be there with you.
KaarBaak 132	Posted - 2011.10.28 23:14:00 - [56] - Quote Full sound....music on low. Seems like the jukebox is less....dynamic...than it used to be. The music would change during combat, etc. Now, it just plays the same three tunes over and over and over again.
Issler Dainze Tadakastu-Obata Corporation The Honda Accord 203	Posted - 2011.10.28 23:27:00 - [57] - Quote I leave it all on but it always makes me sad at how uncompelling the music is. Other games do so much more with soundtrack and it can make a game so much more engaging. Some of my favorites sessions at the Game Developers Conference were given by notable music composers. CCP needs to hire someone that understands sound in games. Issler

Barbelo Valentinian The Scope Gallente Federation 101	Posted - 2011.10.28 23:47:00 - [60] - Quote Calathea Sata wrote: Please describe how you enjoy your EVE sounds. Everything turned on? Music only? UI only? Effects only? Etc. Myself: UI only. Everything turned on except music. I think the game's ambient music's great, but after a couple of years even good music can pale. I usually listen to Cryosleep or Bluemars or DroneZone now, while playing EVE (Steve Roach's zero-beat ambient music, in particular, is incredibly deep and suitably representative of the vastness of space). Sometimes I'll fire up the music from Freelancer, or listen to other similar electronica for a change too.

Souseke Ichijo Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2011.10.29 01:31:00 - [64] - Quote Everything turned on except the music. As nice as the music is, it does get a tad tedious after a while. The sound effects are awesome and meaty :). Jukebox is a very useful function thanks :)
Chronix Beebelbrox 2	Posted - 2011.10.29 19:08:00 - [65] - Quote UI sounds only cuz it helps to make the game more playable with as clunky, slow and laggy the UI can be. ie. did i actually click it (activate gate or warp to for example, and well, yes I clicked it, but is the game actually acknowledging that fact), cuz i cant use my hotkeys cuz there could be a random chat window open or I might be using my push to talk or my UI might still be lagging 5 seconds after the screen loads and I can't do **** but my shields are already melted so I am spam clicking with my mouse pointer 50 times a second on stuff that I can actually do that to. Unfortunately turning on my ship mods will have to wait a second after my UI starts working cuz the last thing I want to do is turn them off again and wait for them to finish lagging after turning them off just so I can turn them back on again. So yeah, UI sounds only.
Psychophantic 83	Posted - 2011.10.29 20:36:00 - [66] - Quote Sounds on when using my main account and off for alts. Music on for quick sessions, my own music for long sessions.
Kaylen Vimanis The Xenodus Initiative. ORPHANS OF EVE 1	Posted - 2011.11.03 01:15:00 - [67] - Quote Sound adds to the immersion for me so i have it on. However blasters sound irritatingly bad, and i hope the blaster wheezing noise changes with the winter expansion, but i doubt it.

Chi Ftele School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 0	Posted - 2011.11.03 15:29:00 - [72] - Quote I keep the sound on, I think that when you start turning off the sound the game turns from fun into a chore, so I don't wanna do it about the music, all I have to say is: what a yawnfest! egad! that is all That is all.
InVictus Kell The Scope Gallente Federation 41	Posted - 2011.11.03 15:44:00 - [73] - Quote all sound on, although the loudest is only at 50% volume. there's some good music though, especially Retribution. so i turn that one up when i hear it.

Wait someone actually listens to this track for anything beyond comedic value? I couldn't hear any part of it with out grinning. And I didn't even realize that guns had sound effects... I just kind of thought it was lost in the vacuum of space.... Why aren't the turret sounds turned on by default?
