Cutting a swathe through the rikti spawns when I noticed something. Whenver you hit a Rikti Drone, there's a new sound effect. A sort of electronic 'chirping' noise, like a muffled R2D2 burble. Didn't see any mention of it in the patch notes, so am I imagining it, or has someone else heard it, too? I like it though  |

What the hell? When I heard a new mysterious sound effect, everyone just said I had brain cancer.
Jerks. >:(
They have added many new sound effects in various patches, all w/o any note afaict.

Listen really close; it's more of a 'metal crumple' sound to me, as if the casing was getting dinged when you hit it.

I love it, it's better than the awful noise they generally put out.
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!

There is a set of sounds, and they're shared by any flying metal thingies. Sky Raider and Mastermind FFGs and Zenith Hoverbots/Steel Valkyries also do it.

Having been away a year I've noticed a whole swathe of new effects in-game.
In that particular mission you mention, out of curiosity I jumped through the holgraphic tech displays down low in the pit in the room before you find the Honouree and they made a lovely warbly noise as if you've just interrupted the flow of data.
