Talrinor Rogandin VEGEMITE WARRIORS 6	Posted - 2011.09.09 00:30:00 - [1] - Quote Greetings Vote here if you miss your mining laser noises. I very much like the newish laser animation however I really miss the continous mining laser sound. The sound that now occurs ONLY at a lasers start of cycle used to help keep me awake and i just think it sounds cool. Also I used to like the sound made at the ROID end of the laser the cute little crumbling noise as the roid broke up. Vote to get CCP to bring it back! Is anyone else noticing that their warping animation has practically dissapeared? Whats up with that? I quite like it as it gives you a better speed sensation and looks cool to boot. I only seem to see it once in a while now. I thought about posting this in the features and idea discussion,,,,,might have if I could've done a poll. Can you even do a poll in here? Oh and before you say it yah im a NoOb k ..gimme a break im old ok. Just wanted to vent about my NoOb carebear mining noises. Fly safe all and DIE to the newbie gankers and Hulk killers out there you scum! Just joshin don't shoot me please! Well i was serious about the DIE for the newbie ( can ) gankers, way to go in helping to keep the EVE population growing tossers! Regards Talrinor Rogandin

Draconyx Oort Cloud Industries The OORT Cloud 2	Posted - 2011.09.09 00:43:00 - [3] - Quote Actually having the mining laser only make sound when they cycle is great. THe relentless sounds from before actually helped put me to sleep at times. Now they serve as a wake up call. Sorry, but my vote is to please keep them the way they are right now. Yeh the warping thing is kind of a crap shoot right now if it shows up. Hopefully they will find the problem and fix it.
Kaomond Aliastra Gallente Federation 2	Posted - 2011.09.09 10:21:00 - [4] - Quote I really miss that sound, i used it to notify me when either an asteroid depleted or my cargohold was full, now i keep checking ovrer and over to make sure my lasers are still wokring :(
Meryl SinGarda Belligerent Underpayed Tactical Team 99	Posted - 2011.09.09 10:22:00 - [5] - Quote To replace the mining laser sound and the crumbling of roids, I slapped an active shield to my barge and now I listen to the reverberating hum. Fly Safe, Die Hard
Firartix Sense of Serendipity Echoes of Nowhere 2	Posted - 2011.09.09 10:48:00 - [6] - Quote Voted. The continuous hypnotic mining sound was accounting for a total of 80% of EVE's Mining gameplay. We need it back! EDIT: Oh, i believe this is posted in wrong question.... Should be in "features and idea discussions" i believe
pussnheels Vintage heavy industries 56	Posted - 2011.09.09 10:52:00 - [7] - Quote You can still hear the rocks crumbling and i am glad they changed the sound i used to zoom out just to get away from tjat annoying pulsating noise , this one is much better warning you when the miners start a new cycle I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it......

My Postman Royal Amarr Institute Amarr Empire 2	Posted - 2011.09.09 11:10:00 - [10] - Quote Signed! I also would prefer my cargo window not closing (since the last patch) which totally spoiles my isk/hour mining ratio.

MortisLegati Calidari Industrial Manufacturing Technologies 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 11:35:00 - [11] - Quote http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=655574 It seems like this has happened before... It seems like EVE's slowly losing some of its art and audio assets. First ship trails, now this? At the very least, the mining lasers' constant noises have been a part of the eternal nuance of mining. I thought CCP cared about the 'look and FEEL' of the game... And to the people who think that mining lasers were LOUD? There was a neat option to dampen turret noises, which included mining lasers and strip miners. It seems like they've fixed the warping animation to an extent, but no mining lasers... It didn't take them too long a few years ago to fix the mining laser noises when they broke them to a worse extent, but that's possibly because it was more irritating to mine with pulse lasers. This issue has been around for months, seriously... This is an Undocumented Feature. In layman's terms, a BUG.
Abrazzar 118	Posted - 2011.09.24 11:56:00 - [12] - Quote Every time they change something with the mining lasers, they screw up the sound of at least one of them. Then again, it's mining. It gets developed by half a manhour per year. Can't expect them to check the mining sounds with a time budget like that. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.

Chribba Otherworld Enterprises Otherworld Empire 345	Posted - 2011.09.24 12:02:00 - [13] - Quote SCREW THE SOUND! WHAT ABOUT RAINBOW MINING!?!!!! (aka Mining Crystal color effects)!

Aramatheia Traveler 52 D-Collective 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 14:24:00 - [14] - Quote its a 1 in 30 shot that i ever see the warp tunnel effect as for mining i more or less stopped after i began incursioning, i like the new mining beams but find them a little bland, sure the blue is pretty but thats it, a blue line through space that endures for 180 seconds then rebeams exactly the same. Admitedly i like the thin blue line better than the fat clunky yellow blob that came before. But then the pre strip beams should be the short duration beams of old, attacking the rocks in surges to break off a nugget here and there
Josefius Aliastra Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 14:36:00 - [15] - Quote I'm beginning to think that CCP has cut corners with mining laser sound and animation because they think most people macro mine anyway. Those of us who play and actually mine hate this change. At least I do.
Cpt Greagor Liquid Relief 1	Posted - 2011.09.24 14:39:00 - [16] - Quote Here is an idea that lets everyone be happy. Make it so when "Quieter Turret Sounds" is checked in the settings, it only makes the sound at the beginning, and when it is not checked, it always makes the sound. That or there could be a separate checkbox all together for it. Just an idea. Edit- Chribba wrote: SCREW THE SOUND! WHAT ABOUT RAINBOW MINING!?!!!! (aka Mining Crystal color effects)!

Though the sould could go on a little longer can be missed if dual-boxing

Solstice Project Freedom Inc. 12	Posted - 2011.09.24 17:33:00 - [19] - Quote I really am no miner at all and only mine on the rare occasion that i need motivation to do something else ... ... but WHEN i mined, i loved the hypnotic sound and the crumbling too. You have me vote. :)
Krixtal Icefluxor Bison - Placid PI Thundering Herd 16	Posted - 2011.09.24 19:43:00 - [20] - Quote Anyone who likes the old horrific constant 'buzzing' of the old lazers Is FLAT OUT OF THEIR FREAKING MINDS !!! Thank God I only hear it at beginning of cycle....same for the Mining Drones too. Thank you CCP for taking away that constant irritant, and reducing it to just a 'reminder'

Aero Mercury Republic Exploration And Defense Rock Ridge Alliance 0	Posted - 2011.09.24 23:34:00 - [23] - Quote I have nothing against how it is now. The sound helps me so that I know when the ice harvester cycle starts again. This way I don't have to check it every 10 seconds. But I do miss the crackling sounds the asteroid did.
PyroTech03 Legion of Darkwind Order of the Void 0	Posted - 2011.09.25 03:21:00 - [24] - Quote I'd love to have the full cycle sound back. I used to go mine for 30 minutes before bed to help make me sleepy.
Qansh Triskelion Ouroboros 10	Posted - 2011.09.25 06:34:00 - [25] - Quote I want the mining sound back. I write when I mine and I enjoyed the white noise, oh yes I did. It's no longer white noise. It's an interruption.
Adrian Dixon The Scope Gallente Federation 2	Posted - 2011.09.30 19:01:00 - [26] - Quote I remember how impressive it was warping into a belt and for the very first time hearing the fierce shound of a good sized mining barge gang. Then panning my camera around to see what the hell was making my 5.1 surround sound shake the house, seeing the the bright powerfull beams, big mining barges and enourmous Orca shadowing them all. All I had was a Catalyst fitted with lots of CPU upgrades and five mining lasers. EVE lost a lot of character when the bugged alpha grade replacements where introduced with Incarna. I really miss the post Incarna Strip miner sound and colour and the asteroid crumbling sound. I call them alpha grade because; The sound is just a bugged mining laser sound, The mining beams pass through hulls when your ship moves instead of moving to the appropriate turret. There are no crumbling sounds on the asteroids. I think a nice compromise on the beam colour would be to swap the blue and yellows around, making the big beam the yellow.
Adrian Dixon The Scope Gallente Federation 6	Posted - 2011.11.04 21:29:00 - [27] - Quote The mining lasers are fixed in the Vintar expansion on singularity (311120) and have a new sound! Asteroids crumble! Lasers Miss Hulls! It all looked good to me
Dalloway Jones Republic Military School Minmatar Republic 55	Posted - 2011.11.04 21:55:00 - [28] - Quote The people who want the constant noise back are out of their freaking minds. I love that it is only at the end and midpoint of the cycle.
Andre Jean Sarpantis University of Caille Gallente Federation 16	Posted - 2011.11.04 22:12:00 - [29] - Quote Agreeing about the Sound problem...i miss the old one from the Strip miner....but what most annoys me is the old Stripminer visible Effect beeing downgraded to such a tiny little line going from your Migthy Roidcrusher to the roid.....I WANT THE IMPRESSIVE GRAPHIC BACK FROM MY STRIPMINERS!!! You know what i mean....the big huge orange the roid consumating visual effect was the first one impressed me watching a retriver using it in a newbie System on a Roid and thougth 'I Soo Want one day to have such a giant thing consuming the Roids rigth away infront of me...before i'm even able to get a cycle finished.! Please CCP bring the old sound and OLD GRAPHIC EFFECTS BACK or at least something similar and same Impressive!!!
Evei Shard Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 2	Posted - 2011.11.04 23:10:00 - [30] - Quote The old thunderous howl of the strip miners was glorious. It gave a real sense of power to them. I remember when I was new and the first time I had a Hulk warp in on my little Navitas with it's two Miner I's Scared the **** out of me when he started those things up, though that was partially due to one going just about through my hull visually. Since then I've fired, and heard the fire of a lot of guns in Eve. I still think the strip miner is king for sound. Or was, until CCP broke it.

Exactly. At least for the strip miners, it should sound like a truly industrial-sized operation, ripping an asteroid apart, not a little beam pecking at a rock! I'd even like to see chunks of rock flying off, being propelled back up the beam, clanking off the intake ports as they're shoved down into the cargohold. Also, for those who don't like a continuous noise, they have options (turret-volume option, zoom out, speaker-volume down), but those who want it, don't have any options at the moment. And if you need to hear the start of the cycle, just have a power up/power down sound at the beginning/end of the cycle. (or perhaps, if the turret volume option is selected, have the short existing sound.) Visually, I like the blue/yellow contrast, but it needs to be a lot bigger for a strip miner. And, of course, colours based on your crystals. My container is NOT imploding! It's just a bit upset that it only sees T1 modules and cheap rocks.
thingvaal Pator Tech School Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2011.11.06 22:47:00 - [32] - Quote have to say... just re-activated my a/c after a year's hiatus and went-to-mine... i'm not an advanced player, just play it as a pass-the-time thing. i'm passive, i wander about for the atmosphere... i MISS the sounds of mining. loads. my miner isn't even making any sound or visuals... i now have to watch the cargo all the time cosign edit: visuals now seem to be working, not sure what happened there - and i'm now getting the initial noise - but i still miss the constant "naaaaarrrrrrrrr"
Severian Carnifex 47	Posted - 2011.11.06 22:50:00 - [33] - Quote new mining sound is on SISI (sound of strip miners)
Dalloway Jones Republic Military School Minmatar Republic 70	Posted - 2011.11.06 23:53:00 - [34] - Quote Yeah just wait until the complainers hear them. They are really going to complain now.

Blasphemous blasphemy. That was most of the fun of flying frigates back when I was a noob. I was flying ships where the trails weren't really visible by the point where they were removed. The ship-trail drag was pretty fun when ships warped though.
