Boo to CCP. Do you have any plans to upgrade the audio at some point? Do for sound what you did for graphics? Pretty please? Four years, 8 months and it's hardly changed at all.
And yes, there is sound in Eve -- (Sarcastic mission running veteran, 4+ years)

True, that third party sound engine eve is using is really fubar.
I still have hopes that it will be replaced or reworked when the graphic updates for effects hit the cluster. Hopefully..

Well that's your own position, aswell as many fleet pvpers refuse to use the premium graphics client because of poor hardware or whatever.
But the vast majority of players will have sound activated aswell as running the premium client, also some will have it deactivated BECAUSE the sounds are so bad. ^^

Obligatory post in support of making the sound in EVE in any way better.
WTB a sound effects volume slider!!!
But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started. |

I just turn it off in games because once ive heard an effect a few million times it really doesnŠt matter. Now what really confuses my friends Is I play tf2 and Battlefield without sound.

The sounds do need fixing. Lord knows I find it agrivating that when one gun fires it's at a decent volume, but as soon as a few guns fire at the same time, DAMN that gets loud.
The background music is beautifull in contrast, which I find odd. It's like one side of the sound department didn't talk to the other.
AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! GET BETTER MUSIC FOR AMARR STATIONS! That shit just sounds annoying for something being passed off as churchy-music. - - - Aloriana Jacques - Skill Sheet

Maybe they couldnt hear each other?

You can assign Eve voice to a separate sound input/output. I have Eve voice (and all other voice chat programs) assigned to a USB headset (about $30 at Wal-Mart) that acts like its own sound card, then I can just turn down my speakers and--voila--separate volume controls. I highly recommend having all voice comms routed to a USB headset.

Edited by: Pnandor on 17/10/2008 22:15:47 It would be awesome if EVE hade any new sound effects future or supported with surround effect like (5.1) or (THX) - (EAX) - 3d sound - any of these would been awesome.

They upgraded the audio engine over a year ago. It hardly causes lag at all now.

Sadly, I don't think any of the new players get the "Eve has SOUND!??!?!?" posts now...

Ha! As if you would turn on sound in EVE. There's no effort to enhance it because CCP knows you can't use it.

Um, what? I play with sound on and my computer practically dies in Guristas missions, playing with Turret sounds on is still exactly the same performance hit. Missiles explosion sounds were not changed one bit and still last for upwards of 16 seconds and overlap eachother until you have 45 sounds playing at once... it's a freakin nightmare. Same as it always was.
edit: Don't forget that we still have NO WAY to adjust sound volume aside from zooming out from your ship (apparently EVE should be seen, but not heard). Lame, lame, LAME. It's no wonder so many people play with the sound off.
But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started. |

The audio engine upgrade was a step in the right direction but they never went any further. As for lag you can eliminate most of it by using a xifi based soundcard. Creative did a good job there. -- (Sarcastic mission running veteran, 4+ years)
