Players can optionally disable the Visual Sounds in the options menu, but are encouraged to keep them on, as all the sounds in the game are being removed to make room on the players hard drives for the new Visual Sound graphics.

But just for the sake of argument, what if this was the only part that was the joke? Wouldn't that simply be a slice of bliss wrapped in gooey happiness? I would sever some important member for this. Heck! I may do it anyway!

It is never truly gone, as long as there is someone left to remember.
BUDDAAAA BUUDDDDDAAA BUDDDDAAA!!!
I laughed. Then I laughed some more.
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.
Man, this is so awesome. Finally the hunt for the missing glowie is a product of the past. *THRUM* *THRUM* *THRUM*
I wonder how they will handle line of sight issues though. Will you be able to *hear* the glowie if it is occluded by something? I would hate to think that you would not be able to find a glowie that had spawned inside a wall because there was no way to see the text for it.
Oh, and is there going to be a scale to the text so louder sounds appear bigger on your screen?

Though are you all sure the joke isn't to make us think it's all a joke so we don't believe it and then the jokes on us when it is true?

So long as they didn't actually remove the sound (lol) and left it as optional...

Ken Morse, the Lead Artist on the title was excited. Its going to be a lot more work for our department, but I think the end results are totally worth it. He said. Players can optionally disable the Visual Sounds in the options menu, but are encouraged to keep them on, as all the sounds in the game are being removed to make room on the players hard drives for the new Visual Sound graphics.

With the exception of disabling sound, I'd love to see "KA-POW" when a scrapper hits something. Great April Fool's joke, but I'd still love the option!
Tease!

DOOOOOOMM!!! This new system is going to suck so bad... Especially since it is never going to be implemented...
So funny joke there guys. Almost had me there in the first paragraph, you kind of gave it away at 'Issue 12 is being rechristened: issue 12, zap boom bang' or what ever. But none the less, thank you for helping me start off April fools day with a bang.

Heh heh heh, that's so awesome.
I hope the next swell and neato feature is automatic gesturing when you speak in game.
Then maybe a voice synthesyser.
Then maybe a biology system where you have to eat or loose End, Drink or loose HP, Bathe or loose Inf, use the washroom or loose XP when you have an Accident.
Permadeath.
A pay for XP/Inf/Prestige system.
Veteran's rewards that give you a respec and nothing else.
Oh wait....
