A little added sound effects

Hey okay this is a really simple idea basically its to add sound effects to Thrusters/Afterburners and micro warp drives. I just think it would add a little extra to anything from exploring to combat. It would give that rush of a super fast ship evading enemy fire. I read somewhere about the new warp animations and I think thats an awesome idea an adding this one with the release of the new expansion would be great. I know this would probably be a bit of work but I would appreciate it.

I seem to recall a mission that had you use a MWD high speed frigate flyby for spectators (back when MWDs were useless in missions). This mission also joked about how you can't hear sounds in space.

Adding your idea would ruin this mission, therefore, bad idea. Lawl, sarcasm.


I think it'd be a kinda neat idea. Just put an option to turn it off or make it quieter (like the turret sounds) and I'm game.

Save the drones!

The game really lacks a sound effects. More sounds effects for shielding, afterburners, mwd ect. is way to go !

I imagine loading up my Crow with its MWD, and burning into battle with the sound effects from Yukikaze episode 4 (look it up on youtube)

no, no its not, because any and all effects in anygame that your required to ehar 24/7, get old and anonoying real quick. and when you use alot fo fits that perma-run shield-boosters aswell as MWD/AB, all this change would do i guarantee i turn EVE's sound off and never turn it back on, because that clusterfuck of noise would give anyone a migraine.

besides, sound is better used for visual cues, like the beep you ehar when your tank fails adn you need to GTFO? yeah, guess you wont need that anymore since you cant hear it over the sound of your failing shield/speed tank.

I think this would be a great feature and the option would enable players that dont like the sound of a turbo jetting Ibis to simply turn it off it's a win, win situation. Big smile
