Please?

Why can't you get some of the people who are doing those fancy ass trailers of yours to put some foley into your game and make some cool pew pew? Noises, make mining lasers that don't sound boring, make rockets have proper WOOSH noises and make explosions nice and varied.

Hell, if you hire me I could take a crack at it, I know how to use goldwave lol >_<

Sound almost needs it's own expansion, it's so old. Most of the guns seem fine, but other than that...
Remastered music, redone effects, jukebox with triggers, etc. etc.

Just having engine noises would be nice and more of that cool radio chatter you get when you go towards stargates to jump.

I remember playing freelancer and one thing I thought was so much fun was just listening to the NPCs talk to each other about hauling Boron or having an idle chat about politics, sure, it only lasted a few seconds and was botched together with programming so they could use it on different systems and stuff but it added to the atmosphere so much.

People just forget that if you focus so much on graphics and forget everything else then the atmosphere gets completely ruined, I love just even having wind and rustling trees to listen to in games.
