Barely a few minutes into scan probes 2.0 and the sounds are driving me insane. I do NOT need a sound to play every time I move a probe (IOW constant beeping). I do NOT need a sound to play to inform me that I just resized my probes. I do not need a big dramatic fanfare when a result reaches 100%, I can see it just fine on the list. Can you please give us an option to use the old scanner sounds, or at least mute the scanner separately like various other things can be muted?

I didnt like that all of a sudden my buttons are all in different places. Im logging off early for the night without scanning a single sig because they changed the ALT and CTRL commands to do the opposite of what they did last time. I may as well be brand new to scanning. No information is where I expect it (THE ANALYZE BUTTON!!?!?!?!?!?!?! WTF CCP!?!?!?!)

Wait, are you saying you are not in rainbow unicorn fantasy role playing game when you scan?

Must have heard this wrong, my bad.


We should get a speech that EvE is now rated 5 instead of 21.

The white noise on the solar system window is the worst. I don't need ambient white noise to let me know the window is up. I know the window is up, I can see the window. I don't need this buzzing in my ear; I don't want this buzzing in my ear; I HATE THIS ******* BUZZING IN MY EAR.

As a workaround for now, if you have 'Advanced Audio Settings' enabled in the Audio settings tab, the scanner sound is under 'UI Interaction' - turn that down (to zero if you like).

Stacee Joringer, 'UI Interaction' it is a group of sounds! When you scanning you need some sounds - sounds like when probes start and finish scanning and some additiomal sounds in game process. If you turn off 'UI Interaction' sounds - you turn off group of sounds that you really need to play comfortable

say again - if you scout in this game, this GONG sound disturb and annoying to play the game

possible to make it optional for atmospheric environment. simple

Yeah, that UI sound option turns off the entire UI. That's not really a viable solution.
