Deschenus Maximus Amarr Digital Fury Corporation Digital Renegades	Posted - 2007.03.29 15:09:00 - [33] Originally by: Lynkon Lawg I would yell "Waaaaaghh" but I'd probably turn green and get sued by Games Workshop GW be damned! I use "WAAAAAAAAGH!" cause its more intimidating than "Yarr!" Originally by: Lynkon Lawg Oh and Mega Pulse Lasers...for some reason...they go FzzZzzZzZZZZT too! Megapulse lasers go Pa-Kow! FLAMING When you can't think of logical arguments and are too dumb to STFU
Calamitty	Posted - 2007.03.29 15:17:00 - [34] Pew Pew is also making into other games its even referenced alot in WoW in relation to warlocks and hunters (or any char that has an overpowered ranged attack) ie, "that godlock is running around Pew Pew'ing everyone" or "just roll a hunter and Pew Pew more you noob" Pew Pew in wow generaly has a negative conetation in the sense that it references easy to play characters with "i win" buttons.

Just like the Amarr in this game then? /me hides Actually, at the time "pew pew" was initially referenced, the gankageddon was the premier PvP ship in the game. -Wrayeth "Look, pa! I just contributed absolutely nothing to this thread!" Might As well Train Another Race

AstroPhobic Minmatar	Posted - 2007.03.29 23:54:00 - [38] Originally by: Foulis Originally by: smallgreenblur wow, i only just remembered there were sounds on eve due to a new install. Oh, there they go again... sgb My thoughts exactly, haven't had sound on in a year and a half. My computer still freezes when I turn audio on for eve. :( Realtek AC97...
Brutal1ty	Posted - 2007.03.30 02:17:00 - [39] I use them all and would only like the ending to change! Maybe a loud "bboooooooooooooooooom bbbiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaatttccchhhhh!"
Mr Mozzie Caldari	Posted - 2007.03.30 04:42:00 - [40] Probably for the same reason that English speakers say pigs go oink, but Chinese speakers say they go boo. At leas that is what I read somewhere.
Misanth	Posted - 2007.03.30 10:46:00 - [41] Originally by: Asha'Lil I thought it started with the GUILD LazerGunsPewPewPewPew on world of warcraft. LazeryAttackPewPew. It was changed to Sword Attack Klang Klang by a GM later as that guild is on a RP server (Earthen Ring) and ehm.. the GM found the later name more suitable. Pew pew been used forever and ever. Long before EvE and WoW. Back on track tho; I like the sound of the medium beam lasers. Brrzt brrzt brrzt. Brrzt brrzt brrzt.
Tylarus	Posted - 2007.03.31 07:05:00 - [42] Originally by: Mr Mozzie Probably for the same reason that English speakers say pigs go oink, but Chinese speakers say they go boo. At leas that is what I read somewhere. That's because the chinese have never seen a pig... how many pigs have you seen in china, hm? EXACTLY. Btw hybrids say KSSHHOOO.
Benglada Infinitus Odium	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:43:00 - [43] imo hybrids go PAAAA-CHEWW --------------------------- Originally by: Arkanor 0.0 is the Final Frontier. Bring money and friends. Sig nerfz0r - maximum allowed siz0r is 24000 bytz0r. - Devil ([email protected]) Sig By Ortos

Jing Tao Pork Chops ("capital city" pork chops) is a very, very old traditional dish in China. Note that they aren't called "chicken chops". Pork is a very common meat in Chinese quisine, FYI.
Harry Voyager Obscurity LLC	Posted - 2007.03.31 17:29:00 - [45] Originally by: Zalathar u amarr can consider urselves lucky. we minmatar have to satisfy with "katchunka-chunka-chunk" or "kabough-bough-boughghgh" (autocannon and artillery respectively) or artiillery with bad speakers: "kapoughcrcrcrcrc" I rather like the autocannon myself. And on nice speakers it's more like doomdoomdoom
Lynkon Lawg Caldari Second Six Corporation	Posted - 2007.04.01 15:12:00 - [46] So this thread now has gun sounds, Chinese pig noises, WoW guild names, Warhammer 40K grunts,...what am I missing?

Oh, there they go again... sgb My thoughts exactly, haven't had sound on in a year and a half. same, its nice though. It really is. Tried to play eve on a friend his pc, he did have sound on. Engaged someone and heard RATATA, boom, RATATA, boom, boom RATATA than BOOOM. RATATA = dual 180mm 2 boom = light missile BOOM = ship exploding To bad it was just a shuttle Originally by: Thaddeus Brutor Originally by: Tylarus Originally by: Mr Mozzie Probably for the same reason that English speakers say pigs go oink, but Chinese speakers say they go boo.

Victoria Alnilam	Posted - 2007.04.03 04:40:00 - [49] Edited by: Victoria Alnilam on 03/04/2007 04:38:18 Originally by: Jackal79 There was a post earlier suggesting that CCP make the lasers sound like the beam lasers in freespace 2. That'd be awesome. OH man, now that would be severely awesome. For those that don't know, the beam cannons in FS2 sounded like this (approximation) The Vasudans had the best one imho. It was Whvvvyooooooooooooo(brief pause after the chargeup sequence)SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEooooooooooooaah Now THAT's a pew pew to be reckoned with. Salvagers... kinda have a pew pew sound. Like dzee-zee-zee-zee-zee-zee-zee. Indeed, I wish lasers sounded more aesthetically pleasing as well. FzzzzzzzZZzzzZZzzzzt is kinda boring. And personally i think large hybrid blasters should make sounds that are similar to if not the same as the Pulse Phasers on the Defiant. Now THAT's definite pew-pew-pew-pew-pew sounding.
vanBuskirk Caldari	Posted - 2007.04.03 06:30:00 - [50] Personally, I think the most impressive gun sound in the game is the sound of 250 rails. The first time I fired a volley of these I nearly jumped out of my seat. And then when I first fired 425s I was expecting something even more impressive - and it was pathetic. If I was going to try to spell it it would be something like the old comic standard - THOOOOM. ---------------------------------------------- "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent."

Alyth Gallente Ma-Ven Industries Phobos Alliance	Posted - 2007.04.03 06:43:00 - [51] I love the sound of Megapulse Lasers myself... ssssssssssssssPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW. And is it me or do Beam lasers sound more 'pulsey' than Pulse lasers? I mean listen to heavy beams, they sound like a machine gun
Galen Silas Gallente Mean Corp	Posted - 2007.04.03 13:41:00 - [52] Railgun: Bowww Bowww Bowww... Long bellowing echo Blaster: bzzzch bzzzch bzzzch... like something breaking.

LOL I always heard the salvagers as "WhhhaDingleDingleDingleDingle" What's wild is I've not gone through and checked all the sounds of the different sizes. I just figured they were all the same. I do seem to recall some cruise/BC sized pulse laser that actually projected the visual beam like "BURST-drain-BURST-drain-BURST" per shot but the mega pulse is just one big "Buuuuuuuuurst" And since I never used anything other than civi projectiles...are there mini-gun sounding projectiles? Brrrapapapaapapapapap!
Talasan The Sausage Smuggling Syndicate	Posted - 2007.04.03 22:38:00 - [54] its all about daka daka daka daka tbh dual 180mm T2's ftw "minmatar got the shaft again? sure ill bend over right away"
Kita Jakuri Caldari	Posted - 2007.04.04 06:41:00 - [55] Originally by: Mr Mozzie Probably for the same reason that English speakers say pigs go oink, but Chinese speakers say they go boo. At leas that is what I read somewhere. Actually, the Chinese speakers say pigs go gurr.
Freyya Axe Gang	Posted - 2007.04.04 09:01:00 - [56] Edited by: Freyya on 04/04/2007 08:58:15 might i add a seemingly forgotten weapon system with the worst sounds EVER? Drones... all they do is go: (imagine a very VERY tiny lettersize] pief....pief....pief...pief..well actually ratata more but pief makes the weak aspect so much more visible. even the heavy drones (including and not limited to the t2 version) have a horrifying weaksauce sound compared to the "uber" damage they do... the actual sound is open for debate though ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------to be or not to be is not important in the world of EVE... To be the most you can become is...
Matrix Aran Fortuna Nova Freelancing	Posted - 2007.04.04 09:08:00 - [57] Pew Pew is also a reference to Live action roleplay. ----
Ashaz	Posted - 2007.04.04 09:14:00 - [58] Railguns. They defenately pew pes imo. Fire off a full rack of 250mm scouts and they go "PEW!". it get's weird tho when you uppgrade to 350mm scouts and they go "PEEEOOWWWwww...ping!" Just started training ACs tho, cause i wana do the "MUAAHAHAAA ChukaChukaChukaBamBam raaaaah!"
Katarlia Simov Minmatar Cowboys From Hell	Posted - 2007.04.04 09:19:00 - [59] Originally by: Matrix Aran Pew Pew is also a reference to Live action roleplay. Didn't know that ... Just out of curiosity is that a LARP community phrase for something or do you just play more futuristic games than we do ? (dark ages vampire has very little that could conceivably go PewPewPew and that makes me sad)
kill0rbunny Alpha-Hirogen The Pentagram	Posted - 2007.04.04 09:25:00 - [60] Originally by: Ashaz Railguns. They defenately pew pes imo.

Just started training ACs tho, cause i wana do the "MUAAHAHAAA ChukaChukaChukaBamBam raaaaah!" Jup, that's what i thought. Actually the users of 250mm Railgun IIs are the only one that can call themselves pewpewers. Pew Pew!
