Hi there,
Just wanted to see wether people's still wanting a laser sound revamp. I remember them having a powerful hissing noise on impact and a vibrating buzz on shooting, but since Retribution they sound... little powerful, like coming from an old sci-fi film. There's a (long time locked) topic still around, from where those sound revamps took place, I red several times, and it seemed like the overall opinion was a want, although it has passed a long time since that and we didn't got any CCP news about it.
So the question would be: is there the intention to revisit laser sounds in the near future? CCP, you made an awesome job with that sound revamp (projectiles and turrets sound powerful and I'm loving ship and planet ambients), but I have to say lasers got the least good of it, and many people (used to) have the same opinion.
It's quite sad for me, as I'm leaning towards laser boats, and they feel like lacking the punch I knew of them. I remember once in SiSi fitting a full rack of large pulses on an Apocalypse and shooting them un-grouped, wich lead to an awesome POWOWOWOPOWOWOWOPOWOWOWO (sorry but I had to)... Now, the same sounds like prrtznnnprtznnprrtznn. Hell, I watched some DUST 514 vids with laser rifles and those sounded as they should: a ttzzzznnnnnrrrssssskkkkk between an energy thingie and a circular saw, eroding its way through everything.
So what do you say? CCP? I suppose most of us are still wanting some kind of a come back to the old |

Now, they sound, well, pathetic and underwhelming.... Even Large lasers.  |

Yeah I totally agree. They sound like former shadows of themselves. Beam lasers used to sound awesome, and pulse had awesome effects also. Now, well just they kind of like an echo of what they were. 
CCP, please have a look at these for Rubicon!  |

I heard al lot of very frequently used stock sound effects when using lasers, specifically the impact hit of medium lasers, sound like some kind of plastic/aluminium being crunched in. Capital lasers too, when they fire they you can hear that that, explosion/recharge kind of audio, halfway in the animation. Maybe you weren't done yet with laser audio?
What I also miss from current turrent audio is that they don't synch in the impact and firing, for example, when you fired from a 425mm repeating artillery, you'd hear 5 rounds being fired, and when you were on the impacting side, you could hear 5 rounds hitting you. Now it's all in one woosh.
I really miss that, little bit of depth there gone from the game.
Also could you make it easier to extract sound effects? .wem is killing me. |

Light don't make sound when it bounce of you, technically laser is light. So the last thing you want is to hear the beam. The sound of working machinery is like humming of a large transformer and the sound effect isn't impressive: http://www.wykop.pl/link/1455053/wypalarka-laserowa-cnc/
So its already too much what we have today in the game.

I know in-game laser sounds have nothing do to with reality, but I can't stop thinking about how lasers used to sound awsome!
The Large Tachyons had that distinctive almost a mechanical sound to them and it was great watching and listening Corpus Apostle's batteries fire (I even liked the animation better than what we have now) - also, Dual Heavy Pulse Lasers had both a great animation and an epic sound to them (2 salvos of pulsating beams of energy fired in quick succession, with a corresponding sound to both salvos).
I don't know what to think about hybrids in general - they now have a pew-pew-ish sound, but 425mm rails sound more like some type of artillery to me *shrug* |

Yes, yes, the whole sound in a vacuum...but the is EVE and WTF, EVE has sound!?! lol. Think outside of the box on this one. If it was true to reality we'd have no funky MWD drive noises and I love that sound!

Actually I had dream of lasers shooting in space and they made sound, that was really bass, low, oscilating to the bone sound (something like wobble) for large green beam of light, and the ship shooting it resembled Jove design. Then all went dark and I was no longer sleeping.

For laser sounds please look at:
1) Homworld 2 beam weapons.
2) Freespace 2 beam weapons.
The great part of those sounds was an "interlude" when the energy was gathering before shot and then there was a powerful strike like a jet engine on afterburners.
I would also like to see a chnge to how pulse lasers animation looks. I mean I know they need to "pulse" but their modulated beam just looks like cr*p. |

I'd believe the only way to get a real proper sound out of those is to
delegate all the decisions to one person with exceptionally good taste
regarding sound effects.
My opinion, can't really judge the sounds themselves, just that an apocfleet sounds roughly like squeezing a shampoobottle.

For EvE world;
It is not the light making sound, it is the machinery amplifying the laser to a very strong levels and unleashing it to a specified point, from the fantasy point of view. I like the FS2 sounds as it fits perfectly to this. Just for example: http://youtu.be/tOTnv8wfjno |

You guys getting caught up over 'what' is making the sound are all wrong
The capsule is creating sound for the pilot the same way it creates sound for ship explosions to give the pilot grounding in space. Because of this it can sound however it wants..no-one is 'correct' .
You will never get a sound 100% of the community likes unless you put in 30 sounds to choose from and let us choose. I personally have no issue with the current sound |

They used to sound like a mighty god slamming his powerful hammer against the universe's existance with the wrath of 1000 demons wrapped all together (in short: epic, loud and powerful).
Now they sound like a jehova's witness is knocking at my door with his fist to tell me about the "good news". (In short: terrible).

I don't see large hybrids doing this. 1400mm arties.. YES. Those need to sound like the full battleship broadsides going off. Railguns don't have the traditional boom associated with gunpower explosions. Rails use magnetic fields to propel the projectile bolt. Hybrids should have a charging/capacitor sound before some kind of higher pitched firing sound as the bolt leaves the barrel/rail.

Oh man, where do you think my nick comes from?
I'm the guy. This is not the thread for this but I've experienced so many "fleet battles" from inside out in that game. Beams passing by your ship, flaks being fired to you, missle alerts, simply takes me to the next level ;) Most of them are because of the sounds ;)
Not to forget that capital ship blasts pushes you away!

I agree that it's the onboard equipment making the noise, not the beam/projectile/charge traveling through space. TBH, I've always liked the Firefly/BSG cut scenes where there's explosions and pandemonium breaking out onboard -- cut to space with absolute silence -- back on board with the pandemonium.
A view/sound option that follows our armaments down range replicating this would be awesome.
Something like, noise of the missile launcher loading and engine igniting, then total silence as your view fills the screen with an ever enlarging enemy ship floating silently, then IMPACT & 'SPLOSION!
Trust me CCP, if you could see this in my mindseye you'd see how awesomely this would rock!

the problem is that sound doesnt exist in space becuase there is not enough matter to create sound waves, so your idea of even adding sounds to eve is bad at that. I like eve as it is now, no sounds and no music like those other corny games, eve is realistic that way.
Edit: Wait, Eve has sounds in space? WTF no one told me! When did this happen? |

I understand; Rubicon's too close for trying to insert this in, every implementation needs time for developing.
Yeah, there's an Spanish phrase about that, which could be translated as 'nothing written about likings'; it means everyone will have a different opinion about their likings on somethings.
I'd like to know your sincere opinion (yourself and the audio team) about these new laser sounds. Do you prefer them over the old ones (just the sounds, and just lasers), or do you somehow miss the days of old, or something different?
I think there's a fair majority of people who thinks that they don't sound like having the punch they have in reality. As you said, describing how a fictional weapon 'should' sound to professional audio designers is quite a difficult task, but I'll try my best to point out the good and the not that good about them.
I'd say their main issue is that sounds tend to be 1) brief, and 2) somehow muzzled, silenced. This is not completely a rule: x-large beams sound ominous, both lasting for a long time and with several secondary 'discharging' effects: this video is a good example. Small lasers also have a well-scaled sound, but medium and large ones tend to sound too similar.
- Pulses: as they rapidly go on/off, their 'pulsing' sound is quite fitting, but I my opinion the general sound they have is not the best they could have. I generally don't like Star Wars laser sounds, but there's a single example in there for how I think pulses, specially small and medium ones, should sound: this one. I can really imagine Gatling Pulse Lasers, as well as some medium and even fighter lasers, sounding like that: shooting a non-stop of stroboscopic lightining. For large pulses, I remember the old sound for them being quite fitting (also sound like a scaled version of the Star Wars example).
- Beams: being designed to focus a prolongued discharge on the same spot, they seem to shoot for a too short time. I imagine them being very similar to laser rifles from DUST 514; one moment they're completely silent and suddenly (as sudden an electric discharge can be) ZZZMMMMMMMMMM-silent again. I'd say they should sound more buzzing, more 'bass', than pulses, which would be, well, pulsing.
- On-hit sounds: they're something that sounds a bit, um, unfitting. I doubt laser hits as powerful as those sound that close to a glass breaking, or a car crash. For pulses, I suggest fast, deflagration sounds like the ones on the previous Star Wars example, when Obi-Wan is finally hit (I'm also liking those little flames on the crater). For beams, a sudden hissing noise as they penetrate the armor or interact with the plasma shields.
As a side extra note, sometimes firing animations (not only for lasers, but specially Gatling Pulses) do not match the sound, or viceversa. I don't know if that's a server side effect or they simply can't be matched everytime for technical issues, but it does break inmersion a bit. |

And now they've changed again so even beams are more annoying to listen to than Justin Bieber's "music"

if they were good in 2008, they were good all the way to 2012. Since that's when they were changed.
But I'll give them a go if I get the time, but this ain't going in for Rubicon I can promise that. that doesn't mean that we can't go over them and we will of course listen to everything you have to say.

Sounds like a complicated, but viable option. It could then be refined as people comment on the sounds presented. Maybe I'm of too democratic a mind set though.

Cooler laser sounds would be very much welcome. However, turret art in general needs some looking at: http://jestertrek.blogspot.be/2012/03/internal-communication.html
This stuff is ofcourse quite far down the list. |

If we made our own sound bytes that'd be ace. Then i could my lasers going pew pew pew, my auto's going dadadadadadadadada, my Artie's going Boom Mother F**cker, and rails going ding as they bounce harmlessly off my targets hull.
The only one I might consider a proper sound for is the blasters, but even then they'd sound like the original x-wing laser sound.
Although I think BSG had the right idea with the sounds, if you have to put sound in space to entertain the drooling masses then little to none given you know, space, no air, no air pressure, no air to vibrate to make noise. So the only thing we should be hearing is whatever causes the projectile / beam to leave the ship. High load electricity type sounds such as coils under load, a bang and a breach block for slow firing guns, the tinkle of brass hitting the floor for rapid firing etc etc.
Still, that's assuming you have the sound on |

It's not possible. I'm sorry, not if you want your own custom sounds in there.

Talking about lasers, I'm a bit nostalgic to the way sleeper's shots used to sound : "SwwwhooouuuuoOOOUUUUooouuu..." something like that. (Eh, see my skills in writing sounds with a keyboard ? :D)
It stayed this way between 2009 and 2012 I believe.

I don't know what everyone is getting so butthurt about weapon sounds for. I think all the new weapon sounds are pretty cool, and would totally listen to them if I did not constantly end up turning off the game sound anyway to avoid listening to station ambiance.

It looks like the better lazor sounds were removed before you were born.
You probably don't know what you are missing.

You may notice I've been playing for about 6 years now. Laser sounds didn't change until LAST YEAR.

I think large beams lasers need to sound more "electrical" and less like a large gun shot.
