Apparently Team Klang is dead set on making the "Eve has sound?" meme a thing of the past.

Our EVE did a video overview of many sound effects / music. If you'd like to see guns/explosions, you can skip right to it.

There are a few more videos scattered over the internet if you search for "eve retribution sounds" or similar, but in general I think it's amazing (and now I have to get on the test server because I am impatient). Also, lasers that go pew pew? Yes please!

Your thoughts?

I haven't heard any of the new sounds as I don't want to spoil the patch days goodness. However I have read comments of people who did, and some of them think some of the sounds are a bit underwhelming.

I hope CCP manages to make all the sounds in EVE awesome. Come Retribution, I want to see my ears bleed..of joy. Big smile

Confirming that CCP has never produced an underwhelming thing in its existence.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I've heard some of the sounds and to be honest I think they're really appropriate to the weapon being fired.

I particularly liked the distinction between the pulse and beam lasers.

Team Klang!!

I like 99% of all the new sounds, however could you please change the sound produced as a salvaged wreck is destroyed. I feel it shouldnt be the same sound we hear after we kill a ship

I've immediately taken a dislike to the new warp sound. I haven't had chance to discover much else at the moment.

Loving them so far. Just two points:

-Explosions feel a little soft
-Directional sound still doesn't feel right. Everything feels like it's infront of me. It's still very hard to get a sense for distance from the sound. Explosions, weapons, etc just sound either loud or quiet.

Yeah, I don't like it either. Is it warping or are these the sounds your ship makes for giggles?

Some new sounds are good...others really are...painful...and completely ruin my enjoyment of the game.

2 main ones that just made me close the game after half an hour were...
A buzzer that sounds when you start combat. when it ends. when you jump. when you dock....quickly got annoying.

And the main one is...when a ship pops, there's like a creepy drum sound. Also happens when you salvage a wreck that drops a container (if you dont loot the wreck before you salvage it)...

Just every time a ship popped i heard this and it goes right through me every time...

Anybody have any ideas of how to disable just these sounds? Since it's taken the game from ebing very enjoyable to intolerable and i dont want to end up playing with no sound...Cry

I support this 100%. If anything they should have made the BOOM even louder and more epic.
I don't feel this new sound at all. Sad

No, that really is a Big Steel Door. It is worrying because they shouldn't be opening in space...

After listening to my guns for a bit (and no, i still cant stand the effect when a ship goes pop >.<) and...medium beam lasers sound like a wet fart, to be perfectly honest.

Before they sounded like beefy facemelt guns...now...ugh.
