I just logged into the Test Server to check on my new Sotiyo XL Engineering Complex.
I about fell out of my chair when I heard a new voice welcoming me.
What have you done with Aura?
After 13 years, 5 months, and 10 days I've grown pretty attached to her

Let the autopilot warp you to a station (approach also). The last occasions where you can continue to listen to the Aura we know.

I've really gotta agree - the replacement samples are really lacking compared to the originals - https://soundcloud.com/ccpgames/sets/aura - and they really lost the feel of EVE the old ones gave. I actually turned up the sound level for aura because I liked the sound so much, but the new ones might as well be off for me.
This sounds pretty complaining, I know, but it's really a sad & unnecessary change - at least have the new VA samples run through some filters or slow down to reflect the feel of the originals; I'll miss aura's mocking tone & detached emotion :/

Maybe, I have no way to know - to be honest, I like a lot of the new voices - the only ones I take issue with are some of the replacements for the old ones. Some are way too snippy or cheerful, and imo they're all to clear in comparison.

New voice http://playground.schildwall.info/sisileaks/next_great_npe/?voice=aura
Warping to/approaching station sounds a bit off. My guess is that those two were added later - at a time the autopilot added the warp to/dock atstation functionality). And those also did'nt get the new voice ... yet.

It's not professional work, but here's a few attempts to make some of the new samples sound more like the old aura, while still holding the quality and feel that comes with the new ones. All I did was slightly pitch them down, and run them through a couple of simple filters:
https://soundcloud.com/uriel-anteovnuecci/sets/aura-altered - has original new file, then (altered) version edited a bit
I'll add a few more and show more bit by bit.

To be honest, I like the new voice a lot on its own - I'm just not sure it's perfect for replacing the old one yet - and beyond that, I'm sure it's a work in progress.

That actually sounds pretty good.
I'm not entirely against the new voice, it will just take some getting used to. Though I have to say that the additional filters like in that example do make it sound a bit more EVE like.

I suspect they dont see this change as an Issue because most older players say "Eve has sound?!" And all the new Alpha's wont care.
I hear Aura say *a module has ran out of charges" ALOT and this new version is gonna get old very quickly.
I may be joining the "Eve has sound?!" crowd after the next patch

Just check thoes [OLD VOICE] and [duplicate with ...] entries here http://playground.schildwall.info/sisileaks/next_great_npe/?voice=aura
specifically You cannot warp there, because natural phemomena is disrupting the warp and You cannot warp there, because natural phemomena is disrupting the ship The warp of the first sample replaced ship in a sisi patch this morning. The second one didn't change.

I still prefer the old aura but these alterations sound decent enough, better than what current seems to be in use.
I wonder, could there be like annoucer choices? Choose the old aura, or a new, or even choose audio files and make your own theme entirely? because that would eliminate the preference lockout AND enable a multitude of options.

I have to disagree.
My hearing is getting worse and I find the new voice hard to understand. As I said in another thread the speed sounds wrong and the diction is not to the old standard.
Given the changes to the skills screen I am finding it harder and harder to understand what the UI is telling me. CCP must understand that we are not all 20 somethings and take into account the varying degrees of sensory impairment that must exist in the number of players there are. |

Agreed, it needs to be slowed down a bit. One thing I really like about Old Aura's voice is that she enunciates her words clearly because it's quite slow. Sounds better that way AND sounds exactly what I would expect from an onboard ship's voice. |

The new voice is acted ok. But there is some kind of effect in it, that makes it sound metalic, which is not pleasing at all. It does not have the same sexappeal the current Aura has. |

No, not the current Aura "old voice".
The old voice.
There was a lot of complaining when the Aura you all know and love was introduced too.
I remember reading a lot of threads exactly like this one. |

Have to agree with all the other contributors to this thread. The new voice is too high pitched and fast. It's not just an old player's objection to change - I've embraced many of the changes that CCP has brought to the game. But this voice is just horrible. It lacks the authority and gravitas of the original, plus it was quite soothing to hear when you were stressing on getting to your destination and heard your docking request had been accepted. If CCP had announced they were going to try a new voice out then I suspect more people would have logged onto the test server to hear it and there'd have been more comments, some maybe for it (but I suspect many more against). Why can't we still have the option of the old voice? Even cheap sat navs give you a choice! |

Strangely tutorial Aura doesn't sound THAT bad. It still is different (like fom inside a can or cheap speaker) but the pace and voice height isn't so bad. Apart from pace and height I think the main reason I don't like new Aura is that it reminds me voices from modern rts games and Aura was always special to Eve. I would even risk saying she is one of core foundations of Eve and changing her is like changing space background to let's say ... Ponnyville?
"Navigation Aura" sounds like it was sampled and poorly composed and I suspect that devs sampled her to avoid additional costs in the future. If its true I'm ok with cutting corners but could we stay within the track? |
