War Witch is a slurpy gurgle guzzler!
There are lots of enhanced sounds in I17 - you can even hear the rustling noise of the paper bags some NPCs are carrying - as well as a coughing sound every time a contact does the coughing emote

im wondering why so many beeps and honks have been added in..sitting in went in talos its all you hear now.

"Ey! I'm walkin' 'ere!"
For what it's worth, anything that improves the audio wasteland that the game is currently on Live is more than welcome. Seriously, play around a bit and listen. If you don't hear deafening silence, at most you'll hear base hum. I much prefer all the new sounds in I17 to what he have now.

Actual cities are noisy, thus Paragon City should be noisy too.

Wait till people discover the jackhammer emote.
It had more sound effects in closed beta - when you stopped and wiped your brow, it used to have a rather manly sighing sound - that seems to have been removed now, along with the screaming alternative jumping sound

Guess I'll be playing with both the music and sound off once again.

I live in an actual noisy city and I would still LOVE to have those noises in the game. But then I'm one of these weird people who walks through the streets without headphones on, without a cell phone on my ear and without shouty people telling me stories I don't care about. I enjoy to just walk around and listen to the noises of the city in the distance. It's what makes the world - both real and imaginary - feel more alive.
Sorry, but for those of us who actually *live* in an actual noisy city, no....just...no. Please?

I also live next to an extremely loud fan that spins 24/7, and that hasn't bothered me in years, either.
Point is, I enjoy detail and I enjoy a fuller experience. Currently on Live, the city is DEAD, and I don't like that. It makes the world feel dead and empty, like some kind of ghost town just waiting for the Langouliers to come down and eat it. It has the same lack of verisimilitude that your typicial "empty square room" map has in most FPS games. Because you can TELL this is made by a map editor and no-one attempted to hide this fact. It kills my immersion when my fake world doesn't even attempt to seem real.
I enjoy all of the sounds of I17. I enjoy the footsteps, the cars, the rushing wind when you fly. If I wanted to play in an audio desert, I'd shut down my speakers. And, honestly, some days I feel like if you left it to people to decide, the game would run completely silent all the time, and this IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Don't forget to mention about how it utilizes multi-layered high-level protocols that provide a function-based optimal moratorium on all user-friendly 4th generation functionalities, while also ensuring a focused, impactful paradigm that allows us to think outside the box. It will also distribute up-sized eco-centric circuits and take full advantage of a fully-configurable analyzing pricing structure that will enable us to be competative in a modern market that thrives on vision-oriented methodical goals and adaptive local resources.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

Why you sip'n your drink so loud in I17 now!?
