I'm not really opposed to the idea, I can understand the lack of atmosphere in the game, I mean the only graphics you actually see are the maps, I can't imagine anyone watches all the creature combats? 12345678 move a square, 12345678 move a square etc etc. Simple background music/effects may be ok, certainly wouldn't detract from the gameplay imo. I appreciate the concern over lag but lets be honest there isn't a day goes by without lag anyway, an extra 10 mins on a 3 hour hunt wouldn't be a big deal. And the fact the Cows said it would NEVER happen makes me think it's more likely to happen than not :lol:

I think there is a player who is a DJ on some website that you can listen to while u hunt. DJ Wolf Radio or something of the sort.

Personal opinion, at 6k stam, my hunts lag enough. I go into hunting mode and it still lags. Something about having 30+ buffs kills bandwidth... maybe. Or it may just be all the nekkid vids I watch.

There would just be too much lag, and besides, sound is one of the things the cow have said "will NEVER happen". Give it up, no amount of rationalization will change this.


Cows have also said something else would never happen.

@Sam

Thing is, they'd need to store the sound and play it from somewhere.... merely turning it off wont change that.... tons of music would start gumming up the works, at some point. lol

We could, but we wont, people play FS in many different places from work to librarys, last thing they need is a dragon roar or merry jigg playing everytime they open up the page.

See, they could do it, but they simply choose not to. While I'm here I'd like to ask people why the complete and utter cruelty and disdain for anyone who is relatively new to the game who asks a question or makes a suggestion that has been previously answered. The guy made a nice little suggestion because he thought it would be something cool.

It certainly isn't a nice thing for a gaming community to jump all over someone just because they don't have memorized the complete list of "everything the cows said will not happen" in the game. As the new year begins I'd like to see a kinder, gentler, Fallen Sword Community, one that has a little more respect for players. If you disagree with something that's been posted, cool. But why make the person feel bad? I see it continually and feel it's really unnecessary. Have a Happy New Year!

Example: Wee lil me going to the library with my laptop and decides to play FS. Got to 'options' in my Profile (which could be added into FS) and select Sound - Off.

Tadaaaaa, we have mute FS (like we have already) and can be played in the Library as well! WHO KNEW!! :lol:

Will you quit it already. They said no, more than once, and you're losing badly in the poll.

This topic has been up numerous times, each time it has been stated why we wont be adding sounds to the game, its not because we dont think it will be cool :) its due to the nature of the game and how and where it is played.
Sorry if the previous post sounded a little blunt btw, :D
But the people have spoken - most said no.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
