Gabriel Heavenlost Macabre Votum Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2009.02.14 18:53:00 - [1] I remember when Strip Miners made this nice relaxing sound that i could chill out with. The visual was perfect too; a soft red beam with a haze of particles around it. This new laser effect, the sound and the visual, is wrong....just wrong. The sound is too harsh and sounds too much like EM turrets, the pulse effect is bad, the beam seems to fade out, and the color is wrong. The old lasers gave me the impression of an industrial process at work. It set the perfect scene for mining. These new lasers break that scene.
Rocius Gradient Electus Matari	Posted - 2009.02.14 21:46:00 - [2] Watched a corp mate mine in a Hulk, gonna have to agree with this one too. Strip miners look and sound horrible. The older orange beams looked and sounded right, these sound and look too much like combat lasers.

King Rothgar Death of Virtue	Posted - 2009.02.14 22:36:00 - [5] Sound is an awful lot like megapulses but I like the blue beams better tbh. I say bring back old sound, keep new graphics.

Rhalellan Minmatar Celtic industries	Posted - 2009.02.15 03:07:00 - [11] Disappointed with the new sound, the graphic I can live with, but that sound has to go. ."The road to Hell is paved with good intentions"
Bao Sheng	Posted - 2009.02.15 03:09:00 - [12] Mining lasers in the fluff are lasers that break down asteroids and have a tractor beam to retreive the broken fragments of ore. So it makes sense they sound like weapons because they are toned down energy turrets with specialized functions
Matt G School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2009.02.15 03:37:00 - [13] Saw the pic, actually not too bad, but haven't heard it. The original sound should remain.

Khaelis Caldari Deep Core Mining Inc.	Posted - 2009.02.15 05:08:00 - [16] I feel kind of bad, this is my third "whine" about the new graphics/videos.. but. From looking at the screenshot, I prefer the classic effects, even though i've been playing with the trinity effects since they were released. I like the nice wide beams and the soft wooshing sound. Keep the thin blue beam if you want, make a larger beam appear near the strip miner to be the "Tractor" and make that sound like the classic strip miners. Please?

But if you think the QR ones look better than the ones in build 79298... you may want to sort your priorities... --- O.P. is made of fail c/d. Originally by:** rValdez5987 I dont like your sig. It fills me with rage. I want it removed. Reported.
Aya Sin	Posted - 2009.02.15 11:22:00 - [20] I don't think the laser-effects are assigned to the right lasers yet. My beams act like pulses and they're always blue. Others said theirs are red or whatever. I guess this will be fixed in another testpatch.

IIRC this exact same thing happened when they rolled out the very first Trinity premium client and it was sorted by the time it hit tq. Yay! Got meh sig back! ♥ Weatherman
Lyyraia	Posted - 2009.02.15 11:36:00 - [22] Sound & some effects are still not that, what they should becmoe, i think... Cause my Mega Beams souns like Tachyons & ma laz0rs don't change the color... The NOS has the same sound as Energy transfer stuff... i think CCP will change alot ^^ - Lyy

Max Thorus	Posted - 2009.02.15 14:55:00 - [26] Weird, my Strip Miner effects are still the old ones, red/orange beam. But no working effect sounds :(
Xavier Zedicus	Posted - 2009.02.15 18:27:00 - [27] they are starting to transition mining lasers into weapon systems and your complainig? isnt it every carebears dream to strip the hull of there enemy's ships?
Bethulsunamen Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2009.02.15 20:03:00 - [28] Originally by: Cypherous EVE has sound? Oh har har, everyone always say that about MMO's :) I dont understand how ppl can play games with sound turned off, its sooooo boring, and removes half the immersion factor. I'm not deaf and i want to use my ears. <3 sound
Cyberus Caldari Final Destination. BrightSpark Alliance	Posted - 2009.02.15 20:25:00 - [29] Originally by: Cypherous EVE has sound? Ohh yeah... Just to inform you.... the world is round as well. So how you guys ( hard core "wanna be" pvp'ers says: Adapt or die !!!11 Though you probebly got in wrong section of the forum... So back to CAOD.... is that way -----> ===== * Your signature file is broken. Please use one that will display - Fallout
Azzatu	Posted - 2009.02.15 20:54:00 - [30] just logged on to test out the new lasers and oh dear its REALLY bad - not relaxing at all the laser effect itself looks like a straight white beam that never turns off, although its blue if you zoom in (I guess that'll be fixed) the sound is similar to a weapon, not that smooth pshhhissshhh more like PWRWRWRWR out of sync with the laser, which doesn't pulsate on and off like before however I don't think CCP are silly enough to keep it this way classic client effect ftw? My sig will be dealt with.
