Music?

Justin_Case

Will there be music in Natural selection?

Legionnaired

Yes. Classical/ Orchestral.

Bill

Just as long as it's not techno, I'm happy.

Daxx

Regardless, like in any game it can be turned of it if just dosn't float your boat.

Nemesis_Zero

Believe me, you'll be <b>very</b> happy then.
I'm not quite sure whether my NDA allows me to give the name of the composer away, so let me put it like this: I'd buy the soundtrack on CD, just because of <i>his</i> name.

Sgt_Bilko1

You can also swap the NS music for your own MP3's.

pielemuis

i think we all know who composed the music

Legionnaired

Or disable it and run winamp in the BG, but I dont think Red Hot Chili Peppers really fits the NS theme <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->.

Flayra

We haven't announced anything about our music yet, but we will soon.  It's tense, ambient classical music and I think you'll be quite happy with it.

Gwahir

So you managed to ge John Williams to help you out, eh? <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

TychoCelchuuu

Oh my god please dont joke about that. I think I could get high off just reading an announcement that williams did the sound for NS. I think I am actually going to cry now that he isnt.

Khaim

Gwhair silly your wrong, Bob composed the music all by himself, yes it is alien music!
;D

Pugsley

If i dont like the music,ill just put on some In Flames (swedish metal band,doubt any of ye's know them <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->). But a bit of classic can add a good bit of atmosphere.......

DarkPenguins

i know who it is! its avril lavine cause shes so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for the love of god, any of you that have some sense, you will murder me now and never speak of this again.

Legionnaired

/me blows DarkPenguins head off with a pump-action, then gives himself a frontal lobotamy to forget that comment...

Ns..... so fun.... hehe......hehe.....

tommyd

in flames owns (one of my fav metal bands), but i don't think you really want that playing during an NS game.  

believe me, once you hear this ambient music, you won't want to change it.

Daxx

John Williams pfft.  He does good music, but its not tense stuff.  Get Has Zimmer, much better, imho <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

But if you want feck with you head stuff, getting Trent Reznor to compose a few tracks wouldn't be far off <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

HaZy

omg don't tell me u guys got Nobuo Uematsu of final fantasy fame! woohoo!

*begins humming the battle win tune and the chocobo theme*

erm, seriously though is the guy who did the music from the game industry or movie industry? or is it still all hush hush mums the word? <!--emo&:0--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo-->

PseudoKnight

I wonder...

Could it be The Family God?

Yay Hans Zimmer  <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--> . The theme from The Rock is one of the few orchestral soundtracks I ever listen to / hum outside the movie.

Freestyler

Too right, The Rock theme tunes rock.  I used to have them playing when I played NS and they always seemd to fit perfectly.  There always used to be fighting when the music got fast paced, and clam periods during quieter moments in the music.  You woulda thought it was all scripted.

But once some of the NS tracks came along, it was out with The Rock, in with The NS.  They just rock so much.

<b>Shhh...it's a secret!</b>

Silver_Fox

Personaly, I liked editing the music files and replacing them with the Halo theme ...

Justin_Case

Sancho

Final Fantasy

Merkaba

hmmm *strokes his chin*...hehe actually I'm really not sure. Has Phil Collins written music for games? Oops!

Longtooth

Battle Realms had the best sound track for a game ever....I actually burned it to a CD.
