Maybe even just a "Radio" that lets you choose from pre existing packages, or load your own. Could even have triggers, like changing to a song/sound bite when entering close proximity combat, or making a kill etc.

This could keep it simpler, good idea.

Whats the deal with PGI not allowing us to change bitching betty notifications or sound effects? I don't see how players can game the system with changing some sound files like missile alert or weapons.

Personally I'm just surprised anyone would be against this. I mean, you're against improving the game's atmosphere? Pretty much all movies use music to enhance the mood, it'd be low hanging fruit for MWO

Giving this thread a nudge for others to be able to see. Having some customization of sound varieties would be really helpful towards the game's atmosphere. Heck, imagine having different sounds for Clan and IS, depending on who you're playing as at the time.

Quoted for truth.

I would love some sound variations and options. I'd be good with just a few sounds packages (i.e. you can pick one 'package' in your options) that you can select one of at any one time.

I also think it would be neat if you had sound packages depending on faction/mech type as the default. Jumping from an Inner Sphere Atlas to a Clan Kit Fox would have different voice overs depending on where and when the mech design originated.

Personally, if nothing but alternative Betty voices became an option I'd be happy.

Unfortunately, the last word on that from Tina is that modifications to the game files could lead to abuses by the players..

However i still hope that they will give us this option one day, i want that MW2 mod

What they need to do is instead of just allowing people to upload their own personal sounds the need to make them have preset one the can be selected from. I know this is a bad comparison but, Titanfall has a system like this and I would totally love to have my betty sound like Sid every time I started up. Also not be lame but if they made them cost MC they could make more money.

I went for all the options choice. This is so important I think. While I am really only bothered by the weapons sounds, the other ideas are great to and I am definitely for it.

Hey guys, let's try to get Russ to talk about customization in the upcoming town hall.

Tina certainly passed the idea to Russ as she is the community manager, in charge of watching the forums for feedback and suggestions..

Soundpacks with the MW2/MW3/MW4 sounds/betty are easily available. Many people use them.

At the very least different Betty voices for IS vs Clan Mechs. After all the mechs are built on different worlds right?

[B0oN]

MLG soundpack, is all I´m gonna say .

Driving your mech and battling is FUNNY again, just because of the hilarious comments "Bitching Bertram" brings ...

"It´s too hot, you idiot ! "
"Long range douchebaggery device destroyed"
"1v1 me"
"MLG device destroyed . It´s coming off your pay"

and so on and on ...
nearly having tears in my eyes from laughter every single time .

Yeah, gotta agree that the sounds could be better. PGI should have an interface where you can create and select your own set of sounds per instance.

I made this video because it was an all lights match versus Heavy & Assaults and we wrecked them, but I decided to add a bunch of my own sounds to it. The guys loved it and wished MWO sounded more like that. Have a look: https://youtu.be/hCzKQjYco1Q

IMO, the added sounds made it more intense. Obvious, some of it would need to be toned down a bit, but it definitely added immersion to it.

cheers!

It's kinda like a game I've been playing recently called "Cold Waters", it's a submarine game set during the cold war era. Basically the music adds to the intensity and makes the waiting to pick an enemy up on sonar nerve racking.

Looks like this has been a decently popular suggestion with "Yes" votes at just under 95%.

I would like to at least have the option of having a musical score associated with the maps, with the ability to either have the background music, and the option of turning it off.

A whole month without more posts? This won't do...


BUMP!!!

[Peace2U]

I'd like to toss in my 2 cents and request the ability to adjust the volume of individual sounds.

And, I would like a response from Tina or another developer as to how modifying 'in cockpit' audio would be disruptive, or considered an advantage, or hack, since the only person hearing it would be the player.
Thank you.
Peace
