Those all sound completely obnoxious. I am not looking forward to hearing this crap multiple times per match, multiple matches per day. You can add me to the list of those requesting for a way to disable it in my options.

Sigh. At least Killing Floor 2 will be out soon.

Clans are reduced to wub wubs and gold robots with infinite rims that never stop spinning.

Hopefully they won't be very loud.

I'm indecisive (again) which is the worst, most annoying of those sounds, because I will use exactly that one.

So It's official whoever makes design decisions over at PGI has to have had a recent ice pick lobotomy.

I mean that's the best i can figure for how anyone would think those ear assaulting noises were a good idea.

I bet IGP made those and are contributing statistics on our reactions to universities to be used in marketing courses. We're just a big control group.

and no benny hill theme... so sad.

Why would they release their company theme song as a warhorn. They are saving it for themselves obviously.

Is the study "How much does it take to thoroughly disillusion, disappoint, demoralize and break a decades old dedicated fan base"? Cause if it is they are getting some incredible data.

hmmmm,
being part of a scientific study, maybe a psychological one will benefit the whole humankind, just think about it.

I think they sound fine. It seems to me that most people that have posted in this thread are of the "PGI can't do anything right" mindset. If PGI sent them a million dollars in the mail, they'd post on the forums that PGI are idiots and should've sent the million via UPS instead of FEDEX.

While I agree with you about the "PGI can't do anything right" being a problem theme...

The warhorns and the icons are dumb. That's my opinion. Just their existence and the fact that time was spent on creating things that human beings, and probably Clanners, have no interest in. That's our money and time, wasted on developing things we hate. Its a double screw.

I like the core gameplay. Its just that they really aren't doing much right outside the core game play. When offered directions, they keep taking the box.

believe me, i´m not of that mindset at all.. if they do good things, i am the first one to honor that...

but i am also making music, not professional tbh, but i do it for more than 20 years now... and those sounds are BADLY done, cheap to be exact... even from a hobby artists pov... luckily for PGI not everyone seems to have an ear for that

Your premise is faulty. Allow me to sum up.

1. The noises are horrible, IMO and in the opinions of most of the people who posted here.

2. Most of us DON'T believe PGI can't Do anything right, in fact many of us were white knights before we were disillusioned, disappointed, and demoralized. And even now i can still say that PGI had created the BEST looking and feeling giant robots in video game history. The weapon effects and much of the actual lumbering around is great. But their failing to deal with horrible balance,content, and feature issues has (in many opinions) all but wiped away the initial awesome of the mechs themselves. We mostly believe that they refuse to do anything right at this point.

3. If PGI sent me a million dollars i wouldn't care if it came by carrier pigeon. Also I would shill for them loudly and often should that occur, it's not that i have no integrity, it's that I know my price.

Maybe we`ll get lucky and be able to sell them for c-bills.... Seroiously, that's about the best use I can think of for most of them...

I agree for a toggle to turn these off and on. However I will have this toggled on, but is nice for a toggle for those that it will bother.
