Howdy,

I made a Dark/Fire brute today. I love the char. But the sound that dark armor makes its giving me a killer headake is there anyway to get rid of that sound? Besides turning off the speakers?

You can always send a PM to Statesman complaining about it. It'll go into the pile of THOUSANDS of complaints just like it.

Or you could search for "city of looping sounds" on google, but you didn't hear that from me.

Because of certain policies no one on these forums can help you but google is your friend.

Unless you have exactly 15 or 23 friends.
Because PUGs are an option for the trials, they should be mandatory.

There was a thread in the player guides section regarding sounds, but I am too lazy to find the link.

You may also want to 'explore' Coldfronts COH site. Just Google it.

You could also PM Jonyu, who has been responsive when I've PM'd similar concerns.

For the record, Targeting Drone was recently changed so that you get the graphic and sound when you activate it, but it fades away shortly thereafter.

Well, without hacking your game, you can try turning the sound effects in the Options menu down to the point where it doesn't bug you. That way you'll still hear the music and stuff, but the "wah wah wah wah" sound of the shield will be subdued enough so you shouldn't notice it.

While I applaud those talented individuals who can play with out sound, this is not really a solution.

Me, I need the sound to play, always have with all video games.

It would be nice to flind a glowie with having to clear the entire map so I could look around with out the safety of my toggles.

I've seen a lot of complaints about this so I brought it up before we went live. We changed it so certain toggle effects fade out but it didn't make it into live. Dark Armor shouldn't be so bad anymore once this gets updated. The same goes for Mud Pots.

please (pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease) don't DON'T do this for arctic fog. The soothing sound of the dry-ice mists flowing gently off my thighs keeps me in my happy place.

Good deal, I've acutally dumped toons because of the DA sound effects. Can't wait to see it put in game.

Anyone else notice that the OP is complaining about DA when he has FA? Hehe, but yeah, DA sound is annoying.

Guys, I totally told you all that Jonyu is the man.

Seriously. He's more awesome than Castle.

/em praise (does the DA scrapper happy dance)

Now I can turn my volume back up on my main, and hear what's going on around me. And find some other annoying noise to complain about. Truthfully, you have my thanks for this.

I'm not sure whether I find your comment humorous or disturbing, but I still love you bunches.

We should have Castle and Jonyu fight to the death... but anyway...

Fading sound effects for teh win!

I'm just curious, but how many people aren't bothered by the sounds? Because they never bother me, and I play with the sound on (really, it's the only way I can play any game).

Only sounds in game that bug me is the DA sounds, just that non-stop Wha wha wha wha wha gets on my nerves.

great, now all they need to do is make "plant the bomb" glowies MAKE noise, and we'll be all set.

Well, I've already manually edited all of the annoying sound loops that used to give me headaches, make me nauseous, and so on, but I'm glad to see they will soon be doing what they did to Force Fields a loooong time ago.

I HAD to figure out a way to turn them down on my own. It was either that, cancel my accounts, or buy a high-powered rifle and start looking for a bell tower.

Some sounds that I had to edit, and hope will make the loop-fade cut:

Targeting Drone
Unyielding
Speed Boost (same sound as unyielding)
Wet Ice
Frozen Armor
Fire Shield
Mud Pots
Super Speed's loop
Dark Armor loops
Peacebringer loops
Hasten's activation sound

...and I'm sure there are others I've forgotten about.
