Yep - the music right now is just random noise thrown in our faces; it does little to set a tone or give the different areas their own character. I may get slammed (or ignored) for this, but good lessons could be learned from the background music in DCUO or even WoW.

Agreed. A solid musical atmosphere does wonders for immersion. Which is why I've been working on an unofficial score for the game.

They want PvP to play like a musical masterpiece, the rythms of attacks and so on, and actually because of this the interactions of powers are heavily linked to ingame music. Changing the Atlas Park music to a longer piece with more going on will probably, by my mathmomusical computations, remove Heal Decay.

Suggestions:
Super Packs Done Right
Influence Sink: IO Level Mod/Recrafting
Random Merit Rolls: Scale cost by Toon Level

On the other hand, the music is fixable. Oh snap.
