it sounds cool at first (there's also a similar sound for salvagers too) - but for mining it's basically a zoom all the way out option - or just plain sound off option B.

Liked it when the mining lasers only made a sound on starting a cycle. This new sound effect wasn't mentioned in notes or nuthin but nice one to CCP for trying something new. In future try something soothing -only the Bots out there will not mind this).

Wait, did they fix mining laser sounds so they play continuously now?!

OMG THANK YOU CCP

Yuppers. It's great but LOUD.

None of the 'separate' Volume Controls will adjust it.

Should be world volume.

Just flew out to a belt and switched on some lasers.

Holy sex, ice harvesters sound incredible. They're the eargasm I wanted five years ago, rather than that non-stop schhffuwwuuuum.

And yeah, only master volume works.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

I usally write one of these and then change it a month later when I reread it and decide it sounds stupid.

Sounds like a bug if the world volume slider doesn't affect it.

It sounds for me like a old diesel engine. Too loud.Mayby an option to regulate the sound (NOT the master volume^^) would be great ccp. :D

This is a Inappropriate signature. Please share it! Bastrian

The best way to not hear that noise is to not mine.

I can't imagine what this must sound like in a belt full of barges. I flew into a belt today in a frigate and there were three Hulks and an Orca and from 30 KM away from them the sound was constant and deafening. I liked the new sound well enough when I tried it out in my own Hulk on the test server but now I'm not so sure... Shocked
