New sounds, what new sound irritates you the most.

LOW. CAP. ALERT.

I almost fell out of my chair because it sounds like the structure alarm.

I got a little annoyed at the npc aggro timer twicking at me but I'm glad for it and the other timers

You should be able to change the volume of the cap alarm, like you can change the volume of shield and armour alarms?



Bro, those aren't volume controls. Those are the thresholds when your alarms activate.

I see you undock often.


Well, you could just turn it off, if it bothers you that much

Well, I don't BEEP have an issue with the BEEP sounds themselves, but with their BEEP bloody interval. NPC Aggro BEEP timer is the worst offender. I don't like the new warp sound, it used to go BEEP sound like you broke the sound barrier BEEP or something. While not realistic I BEEP liked it better, but I'll get BEEP over it.

That moaning noise I keep hearing from players.

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.

Pretty much all of them. They don't seem to add value to me. Having a explosioveish sound when I gate jump isn't really helpful.

npc combat begins bleeeep!
npc combat ends bleeeep!

multiply by number of ships, then imagine someone killing say, some frigates.

bleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeepbleeeep

cue bleeding ears

worst thing about the bleeeep is it is totally alien in the game. Nothing at all to do with spaceships in my mind would make such a horrible screechy bleeeep. I know i have never heard bleeeep in any sci fi show or movie i have seen. and i have seen alot

The simple fix would be to only make the aggro timer sound play when you receive a new one and when the timer expires. Playing it when an existing timer resets is a bit much.

I actually quite like the new sounds, but that one fix would make them a lot less intrusive.

This.

I could get up to take a **** and know when I was warping to the next gate. The boom was reassuring. Now it sounds like a drain full of steel wool.

The jetcan sound is pretty bad, considering you hear it a lot when a rat dies or a wreck with loot is salvaged.

It's CCPs way of saying stop wasting your time killing NPCs and do some peeveeps

jks, however on the PvP side of things I can't say I have been very annoyed by the timer effects

the "exploding soda bottle in the bathroom far, far away" sound which arrives slightly delayed after the ship explosion.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Not particular sound but lack of them in fleet battles - it's sad joke. Zoomed out a bit and all I hear is lonely shot (or two) every few seconds while there are 70 ships shooting each other non-stop.

There's a whining every time I log in to the forum. But it's nothing new and has actually been here so long that I don't really notice it much anymore.

Turned the sound on after a couple years of having it off because I heard there were new sounds. Turned it off again.
