Had a rather long break from eve.

I come back and notice that missile bays now show and have rather nice animations. But what have you done to lasers CCP? Its so anticlimactic to fire mega pulses now, no more juicy zzzzz-POOOM - Just a muffled fart.

Autocannons sound okay, even artillery.

Why the hate on amarr?

Lasers are emitted light. There are a lot of SciFi sounds for them. You should just be hearing the sounds cooling equipment and humming motors, maybe some clicking as items electrically couple and decouple. None of us should hear anything but the internal sounds of the weapons firing.

So, whatever sounds we hear from the weapons it's totally arbitrary. We'd only hear the weapon discharge sounds and vibrations and incoming fire once it hits armor or structure.

Maybe lasers should sound like a Banjo twang... If you fired them right, you might be able to play dueling banjos...

To add feedback, sound in space is artificially created by the camera drones.

That ringing in your ears you're experiencing right now is the last gasping breathe of a dying inner ear as it got thoroughly PULVERISED by the point roaring over your head at supersonic speeds. - Tippia

There is probably a DEV looking at this thread right now going, "oh gawd... when are we going to live that down?"

Wow these ships look really cute so squished together. ^_^


And I think someone in here is seriously insecure.

Darn it, it's the dependence on spell checkers that are going to start the next world war! Shoot, I'm gonna have to add that to my system dictionary in place of the other word!

The OP is right! This injustice is unbearable!

YOU NON-AMARRIAN HEATHEN SHOULD BE PROPERLY TERRORIZED AT THE MERE SOUND OF OUR RIGHTEOUS EMITTED LIGHT!

I couldn't care less if emitted light really makes sound or not. Our Amarrian emitted light is superior to your heathen emitted light, therefore it DOES make a rather satisfying sizzle/crackling sound. EVEN IN SPACE!

And yours doesn't. : P SO THERE!

We decree it, therefore the devs must make it so! And just to make sure they do, all true Amarrian capsuleers should assemble at the Jita monument to shoot it with our combined emitted light until they fulfill our righteous decree!


Actually, I am rather unimpressed with the current laser sound of several wet pairs of blue jeans striking a concrete pavement in rapid succession sound, and agree with the op.

Bring back my laser sounds and i'll go hide in my corner again, I promise
