<div class="IPBDescription">...had as all scared for a moment</div> Now give us the real sounds please, we've vacuumcleaned all the Hives in NS by now.
With the obvious comparison to a vacuum cleaner, I think this is the first time that people running around saying 'the new sounds SUCK' will be perfectly accuracte.
Its like having a 14y/o CS kiddie behind you. (high pitched whine <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
We had hives dying, but no one cared because they were laughing so hard at the bile bombing going on in our hive. Gorges were playing catch.
The thing is HUGE. It's gotta be a joke too, right? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I think every single playtester deserves repeated beatings with a stick for letting the jetpack sound pass. But then the same goes for me and the horrible spelling in the topic, so lets just call it even.

After playing a full day of NS and hearing the JP sounds being compaired with everything ranging from a blowdryer, to a vaccume, a dust buster, a viberator, and an electric toothbrush; I get the feeling Flayra is already looking for new sound replacements for the JP. While people tended to get a bit picky at past sound readjustments in weapons like the new shotty sound, the lmg firing, ect. I've never seen people hate/insult how the new JP sounds so much.

I really like the big BB XD
And quite personally, I think the new JP sounds rock! They sound more like doom to your hive now....which should be good enough to get your team heading back to the hive.
I think the main problem is the jetpack sounds like it has a huge turbine for thrust when in fact when you look at the model it just has 2 little thrusters
P.S. was that sound recorded from an actual vacuum?
I don't care if it sounds like a vacuum... i like it <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Also that shotgun animation rules, but the lmg sound is a little strange...
All in all, you get used to the sounds really quick.

sounds enough like a vacuum cleaner to me. what - did you all think that it shot fire? the new sound seems much more accurate, if you ask my opinion on the matter.

The only thing I dont like about the new beta is the sg shoot anim, but not because the animation istself, but rather that there aren't any faces on the backside of the shotty so it looks awkward.
I am going to add old beta sounds into my NS enhancement pack ASAP too to counteract this lameness.
If it was a joke they should have had the option to select 1.x sounds or 3.x sounds in installation.
Personally i think what the dev team did was stupid.
I </3 the jetpack.
