[BAD-F] Sir_Grzegorz Beta Tester 798 posts 16,103 battles Report post #3 Posted September 17, 2019 I have to admit that most games I am playing is without sound (I have headphones, but not on my head). Are the changes to the sound worth putting headphones on? Before you ask I prefer to listen to music, as sounds in most games are irrelevant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anonym_MfZ6T7iwWpUC Players 1,139 posts Report post #6 Posted September 17, 2019 The only thing in 8.8 sound wise that grates, is the alarm sounding while the ship is on fire. I dont need a warning alarm I know when my ship is on fire, because...........my ship is on fire. 4 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[EUR] lossi_2018 Players 3,122 posts Report post #9 Posted September 17, 2019 I stopped playing. My head hurts and I literally can't think at all. I believe no one cans as the gameplay took another dip into the abyss. Playerbase is confused and bewildered and don't know wut they are doing. More so than before which considering, its a huge accomplishment in retrospect. So well done I guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Temporary solution is to lower all ingame volumes to 0 and put some music. It will be fixed soontm enough, no need for panic 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishDogFoodShack Players 685 posts 5,858 battles Report post #19 Posted September 17, 2019 When they said they were going to base gun sounds off of caliber, I didn't think what they meant was that they were going to copy and paste Yamato's """""unique""""" gun sounds to every BB with guns bigger than 406mm. Except Republique apparently, which still has it's old sounds but has bigger guns than conq, which now has Yamato's sounds. because god forbid there was a reason to play Yamato anymore. Also, the "reverb" on the horns? I'mfairly certain they just copied the horn to play a second time with a half-second delay instead of doing real reverb. Nice job breaking it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[DONGS] SirBlemmingtonSmythe Players 535 posts 13,196 battles Report post #20 Posted September 17, 2019 I was playing earlier on headphones and had to back the volume off as it was just plain weird, then I fired a salvo from the Molotov and thought 'What boat am I on?', sounds naff all like what it did, sooner it rolls back the better or a decent patch to revert most of the nastiness that is currently abounding. Oh and that weird 'On fire' alarm.... just no please. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[COUGH] RigorMortis76 Players 155 posts 15,504 battles Report post #23 Posted September 17, 2019 Very very annoying engine sound. Can hardly hear when the reload is done. Gunsound from a ship 5 mile away extremely loud. Extremely loud impact sound of hits on my ship, eventhough sound very low coz its so annoying. Bleebs in port when mounting and unmounting flags. Unbareble change all in all. Please undo the change, its fucked up!!!!!! And bugged up coz my language of choice, German, is replaced with English which i cant change, so annoying.
