Anyone else find the slapstick brawl sound a little silly?

Shadow Maul now sounds more fitting for Princess Peach than it does an Undead Nethermatter powered villain.

Ooo, I'm sure it's pretty easy, replacing a file or such. You must tell me how!

Really? Peach is my 3rd favorite character in Brawl (Behind Sonic and Lucario) and the Peach Bomber is the reason I play her so much.

Yes, the new Brawl sound is dumb. If it were a choice of that or the other sound then I'd be fine but I really dislike the new one. Or I guess I should say "new" since it sounds like the same sound used for Rikti Monkies.

 

Posted

I'm weird, I guess. I like the new Brawl sound better than the old one.
Haven't tried listening to it in Shadow Maul yet, though. That may drive me nuts.

I didn't even notice it changed.

I like it better now. It's much less grating when you've got a dozen enemies all Brawling you at once.

Issue 16 made me feel like this.

It's kind of sad that I noticed the change right away. For what it's worth, I like the new sounds.

They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

That sound effect is good and well for Brawl, but for Flurry, Sands of Mu and Shadow Maul, I propose a slight change.

@Demobot

Also on Steam

I like the new sound.

People actually run the game with their sound on? @.@

I hate the new sound. I wish we at least had a sound FX CHOICE. But nope, it just gets lamped onto everyone. I'll definitely be taking any 3rd party workaround to changing it back to something I like

I like the new sounds as well. I'm very happy with the changes, but then again, I've been totally satisfied with the game for over 6 years.

If they bring back the old Brawl sound, they also have to bring back the old water-splash sound.

Yea kinda cartoony or kid sounding. Nothing wrong with the old sound.

 

Posted

Could take it or leave it for Brawl specifically, but for Sands of Mu and such it is odd.

Will probably fix if I ever get around to playing with other sounds too.

 

Posted

I really like the new sound better. [Jump Kick] also has the new sound.

 

Posted

I don't think I used Brawl, hmm... But I did notice it immediately and disliked it on Shadow Maul!
I do recall thinking that it sounded somewhat cartoony.

I was wondering if any other power sounds were changed...

To me it sounds okay for Brawl but in Shadow Maul it doesn't quite work as well.

Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...

Shadow maul used to sound like you were tap-dancing on Humpty Dumpty's head at the bottom of a well. The fact that anyone misses that is a true testament to the power of nostalgia.
