Why Has Sounds Issues Not Been Addressed?

Rubicon has brought about several key audio issues, all of which have been posted, and none of which have been resolved.

1) Wormhole sounds are now incredibly difficult to hear; I can hear myself jumping through a wormhole, but cannot hear anyone else jumping

2) MWDs are THE WORST. Someone can be 150km away, activate their MWD, and it blares out of my speakers like they were right on top of me. It makes me never want to use the module the sound is so awful, grinding, and ear-bleedingly obnoxious.

Please please fix these things, thank you.

Well, your first issue is incredibly minor... and thus probably low priority.

Your second issue does indeed affect everyone and will likely be addressed reasonably soon, although it is hardly as irritating as you would like people to believe. We actually LIKE the effect, it just needs it's parameters for distance fixed.

To the poster above mine, actually the sounds are excellent this time around. If you don't like them, turn down the volume or disable sound altogether.

The first issue is quite serious.. if you live in a wormhole.

Fair point, if you are relying on audio que's to determine when someone enters or leaves.
They did a lot of audio work this time around (and got very little recognition for it), so they likely will have something out fairly soon.

Yeah, they added a variety of background noises for when you are in close proximity to a star.

In real life....stars emitt "sound". It is possible to listen to it.
Now CCP implemented that and I love it.

Sounds issue was resolved this summer when we kicked them out of Providence.

I went outside and listened to the sun. All I heard was some birds and maybe a car or two driving by.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

I feel like I am playing a racing game when I hear the new engine/ micro warp sound.


I can hear people jumping through WHs clearly tho, no issue with that sound effect IMO.
