Hey guys!

So, we got some nice new warhorns in this event, didn't we?

Not too hard to get, and lots of cool effect.. but, there is a slight hickup..

1) PLEASE, make the radio warhorns louder! If basically ANYTHING else is going on, like, you know, a battle, you can't even hear them..

2) Make the "Kill Confirmed" say "Kill secured" instead.. cose' "confirmed" makes no sense when we have the "kill secured" decals..

There..

I don't think those two slight changes should be very dev-hour heavy, and most everybody I've talked to about this agrees that those two things should be done.

What do you think guys?

I can't really comment since I haven't actually heard any of them yet. For all I know that's because of #1 there. :P

I don't think an entire dev hour is being spent on MWO any more.

I agree, they're too low. Any kind of dakka that aren't lasers will drown them out.

Apologies. I cherish every Dev Minute spent on MWO.

Agreed, I also wish there was a slight delay between kills and the radio going off. It usually happens so quickly it merges with the sounds of my lasers or what not firing.

My main complaint with those warhorns would be that they could sound 500% better than how they sound right now.

What's being said doesn't really bother me, it's just that isn't loud enough to hear over the dakka and pew pews.

Personally, I enjoy the way you quote My Little Golden Book of Logical Fallacies at folks to make yourself feel intellectually superior.

I usually just let it pass. However, I want to particularly applaud your response above, in which you fail to grasp the irony making an ad hominem attack on me by falsely accusing me of making an ad hominem attack.

That is an Inception level moebius loop of logic. Continendam opus bonum instructus!

Yes, make them way louder...they need to be about the decibel level of the lunch truck warhorn because they're just spoken words. And since they're 'radios,' have them broadcast to the cockpits of all mechs on the battlefield, not just an external speaker that you have to be close enough to hear.

heard one, think they're crap, would rather hear music. Looked cool sounded horrible, will likely go into my box of unused items along with the pureugle surat warhorn and clapping surat.

You speak like a True Inner sphere Dog... wasteful and barbaric.

Why say something in more words and make it confusing, when you can say few words with the same meaning?

Nouuuu. They are just perfect. We have plenty of loud warhorns to choose from. I like these more silent ones for my sneaky sneaky snipers.
