Kolwrath	Posted - 2007.01.11 17:59:00 - [1] My vote: 1st place: Large Ion Blasters. You get that cool buildup/ball of energy at the end of the turrent ... then SHOOM it gets flung at the enemy at high speed. Plus the sound effects for it are awesome. Loooooooove it. (I actually giggle when I shoot em cuz it is just that cool!) 2nd place: Medium autocannon turrest. They look like super big MG88's when firing. The sound effects are pretty good too but they honestly could use abit more of a bassy runmble. What are your thoughts guys n gals?
Jim McGregor	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:01:00 - [2] Edited by: Jim McGregor on 11/01/2007 17:58:29 Well, this thread will probably get a lot of "Eve has sound?" replies... But I think autocannons and artillery could sound a lot cooler than they do at the moment. And those are the only guns I use, so Im not commenting on others. I would like more BANG effect with artillery and more machine-gun type sound for autocannons. They dont sound dangerous enough. --- Eve Wiki \| Eve Tribune \| Allakhazam

Dang you beat me to it ! I was going to say, "huh, you have sound enabled in EVE?" As a missile user, I simply can NOT stand the sounds they make. _ My skills \| Mod/Rig stacknerfing explained
Stitcher Caldari J.I.T. Enterprises Freelancer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:11:00 - [5] The Gjallarhorn doomsday weapon. A swarm of one hundred cruiser-sized missiles each of which zips off in a random direction and then explodes with a detonation the size of a large disruptor bubble? trump'd. The victorious general wins first, and then goes to war. The defeated general goes to war and then seeks to win.
Ifni Developmental Neogenics Amalgamated	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:17:00 - [6] It was the neutraliser "twinkly dust" effect until they changed it out for the same one as the nosferatu's. God only knows why, its had significant tactical advantages since it was easy to miss as it was. You take what is offered. And that must sometimes be enough.
Noveron Caldari Celestial Horizon Corp. Ascendant Frontier	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:20:00 - [7] The cyno field looks very good too. ---
Saint Battalion Decepticons of War	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:21:00 - [8] not a weapon effect, but when you shoot a corpse BOOM, what are those things made from!

Alyth Gallente Decisive Outcomes	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:47:00 - [10] Definitely either EM cruise missile explosions or the sound of a Megapulse Laser charging up. I LOVE those guns.

Gabriel Karade Nulli-Secundus	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:53:00 - [14] I love Large Ion Blasters, they really do look and sound like you are spanking your target all across the solar system... ---------- Video - 'War-Machine'

Beef Hardslab The 5 Amigo's LLC.	Posted - 2007.01.11 19:05:00 - [16] I guess I'm easy to please, I like the nos graphic effects. Soundwise, I really like the explosive cruise missiles.

Dahak2150 Chaos Monkeys	Posted - 2007.01.11 20:18:00 - [23] Megapulses have the coolest sound. Tachs have the coolest look. I mean, it's hard to beat a gun so powerful it throws out a spray of energy behind the barrels as well. If you're on IE, pretend this is transparent while you get a better browser.
hydraSlav Synergy Evolved Serenity Fallen	Posted - 2007.01.11 20:19:00 - [24] Best weapon effect: the (now-extinct) sound of the Nosferatu. I remember the first time i've heard it, it sent chills down my spine (considering i didn't know what it was). Unfortunately that sound got removed. =================================== Above comments are my personal views Originally by: Oveur Local shouldn't be a tactical tool, it's for chat
DeadProphet Black Eclipse Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.01.11 20:20:00 - [25] Gjallarhorn, definatly. Listen to me on BoB Radio Wednesdays 16:00-17:00 & Sunday 18:00-19:00
Plymer Ization Infinitus Odium	Posted - 2007.01.11 20:21:00 - [26] Originally by: Beef Hardslab I guess I'm easy to please, I like the nos graphic effects. Soundwise, I really like the explosive cruise missiles. The old (Exodus/Cold War?) Nos/Neut sound effect was awesome IMO too. You knew there was trouble when you heard that.
Enders Vaal Gallente	Posted - 2007.01.11 20:46:00 - [27] I really like the sound of rockets firing. Add the nice smoke effect that appears when launched, and they're a joy to watch --- "You are without doubt the worst pirate I've ever heard of." "...but you have heard of me."

Winterblink Body Count Inc. Mercenary Coalition	Posted - 2007.04.11 19:26:00 - [29] I always thought the NOS effect was pretty cool. And the remote rep ones too (though not really weapons). Might just be wishful thinking, but t2 medium rails seem to have a slightly different firing effect than the t1s, like the shot starts 50 meters on the other side of the gun. Looks cool. I just wish the sounds for hybrids got some love. At the very least give 425s some kind of sound that matches the evil eeriness of tachs. God I love the way those sound. warp drive active \| nature vraie

You get that cool buildup/ball of energy at the end of the turrent ... then SHOOM it gets flung at the enemy at high speed. Plus the sound effects for it are awesome. Oh cool! I've been looking for a weapon to make my melnorme trader based From Starcontrol to EVE ship I personally like the x-ray(was it, green?) pulses. Green for win! Originally by: Curzon Dax 1.

Del Narveux Obsidian Angels Enterprises	Posted - 2007.04.11 19:36:00 - [31] 1. Torps. I love the shockwave, and BOOOOOMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm.... (best with a big subwoofer on max level ) 2. Large blasters. They look good, sound good, and theyre just plain fun to shoot. On a related note, is there any chance of upgrading the projectile sound effects? Im not a huge audiophile and Im fairly easy to please, but seriously they sound like I made them in my dorm room by banging on stuff. They need more duration and punch, howitzers dont just go pop. _________________ [SAK] Alumnus--And Proud Of It! -- aka Cpt Bogus Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

Detrevni Minmatar Aionios Diadochi	Posted - 2007.04.11 20:12:00 - [32] I like the look of large lasers, but large ACs/ Artillery are fun too.har to beat the massive sheet of flame shooting out of the barrel when those things fire :D Of course I'm minmatar, so I'm biased. ---------------------------------------- * * * \_/ * * * Space cup.
Ikthorn Balhar Caldari Veto.	Posted - 2007.04.12 01:16:00 - [33] As far as weapons, torps are pretty cool, the explosion graphic looks great. For everything else, I think the warp scrambler graphic looks very smooth and clean.... I'm simple like that.

THEGREAT LOBO Black Eclipse Inc.	Posted - 2007.04.12 02:18:00 - [36] Laser look quite cool when they are shooting at you. i got some cool screen shots of a friend shooting me in a shuttle. got some nice affects of it :D

Spenz Gallente FIRMA Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.04.12 02:22:00 - [38] Edited by: Spenz on 12/04/2007 02:19:37 Audio I have to say the Tachyon is nice. It is one of the few L-class weapons that SOUNDS like it belongs on a BS, but my favorite audio....dual 425mm ac is pretty good. Actually sounds like you have a BFG firing several trash can sized shells at you. Visual is the Mega Ion blasters. Those are what blasters SHOULD looks like imo. If I had an Alt I would probably post with it...

Stakhanov Shih Yang Tong	Posted - 2007.04.12 03:11:00 - [43] Actually I like medium ACs. Something about oversized machineguns... Large blasters sound terrific for sure. Like flying around with lots of sentry guns on your ship - in a sense you are... Smartbombs aren't very spectacular compared to torpedoes. However I wish more people would fit lasers on their ships , they look and sound pretty - both pulses and beams.

Reycks Armunicus Gallente CoreTech Industries	Posted - 2007.04.12 07:10:00 - [53] I dunno, probably missles
Sahjahn Caldari Black Wolves	Posted - 2007.04.12 08:15:00 - [54] Definitly Torpedoes for me, but then i'm caldari and use little else other than missiles. 7 siege launchers, a fast RoF, alternate each launcher with inferno and mjolnir torps and set them off staggered. Very pretty fireworks effect :)
AlvynNevins Feral Tendency Ratel Alliance	Posted - 2007.04.12 08:15:00 - [55] The citadel torpedo explosions are really nice, altho you should't watch them longer than 5 minutes (because of the bright flash). If you've never seen one, here's a linky.
fire 59 Destructive Influence Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.04.12 08:30:00 - [56] I love the sound of mega pulses, make's my eye's glaze over a little when i hear them firing ( when i have sound on ). Also, the 250 railgun's, they actually sound alot meaner than the 425's, maybe they should switch the sound's on them ? BoB vs the coalition of family value's

God only knows why, its had significant tactical advantages since it was easy to miss as it was. Thanks for pointing that out.
