Right, I'm a huge nut for sound effects. You can let me hear a sound effect from a game and I will probably recognize it. There are some that I like more than others, and some others that I genuinely do not like. This one especially counts for the button new button sounds!

What button noise you ask? Well, if you will, have a look at moving your mouse quickly from top to bottom in your list of items that you've sold on the market. Go on, I'll wait.

Mmmmmm....ahhh....yes....notice something different? It's a new sound effect! Now click on the ''load''button on the same page.....yeah....ahhh...hear that? Yes! It's another new sound effect!

Thankfully you haven't removed the other one, which other one am I speaking of? Well, board a station, move your cursor around the station options (Medical bay, Industry, Bounty Office etc). Ahhhh...you hear that? That's the sound of EvE! Yes! You hear that noise of when you're dragging a item into your cargo? That sounds eve-ish! Yeah! Feels great!

But you might ask, ''why oh why would you care so much about something sotrivial, you silly capsuleer?''

*WARNING: OLD MEN, & OPINIONS AHEAD* (you get 5 extra points if you catch this reference)

It's because I grew up with these sound effects! You can't just......change them like that! That's just......just....weird man! That's just.....wrong. Like drinking tea without sugar! Or.....or um....having a hole in your sock! Yeah!!...Atleast you could have shown a preview of the sound effect or something! Or....give us choices to have different selections of sound effects! Because choice is goooooood.

TLDR: There is no TLDR read the story! Yeah...take that! You didn't expected that in a TLDR...did you?

Also, sweet job on the intro theme, it's quite....ominous.

Eve has sound? LOL....

Actually, I go from turning it on, to turning it off depending on how annoying it is to me at the time. But yeah... new sounds. Change is good.

*edit* Disabled music a LONG time ago. I prefer to listen to MY style of music (Steampunk) rather than EVE's music.

I won't say you are stupid, but you're not exactly on the Zombie menu either.

Also liking the new sounds, the old ones were getting dated.

In hindsight my post should have had more psssshhhh

I don't mind renewing a few old sound effects, but making my overview (and market and assets and almost every other list in the game) sound like a gorram Geiger counter is just wrong. It could probably be used to measure the half-life of my nerves.

You can always "imagine" that you are hearing the old sounds.
