It's too quiet...

**Ally** · 4th November 2005, 01:41 PM

Anyone else rely on sounds when playing? Last night when I logged on I had total silence on my computer. Can't hear my swampy running, or when casting spells, etc. Couldn't hear anyone around me either. I could hear myself on my my bf's comp though.

It kept me alert at least, but I want some sound back. I had the volume all the way up, so I'm hoping it was just a fluke and it'll be back to normal tonight.

I've always played with the sounds and music on. I think it would feel unnatural if I didn't..

Luis · 4th November 2005, 01:58 PM

when I play, I HAVE to turn the music off. It gets SOO annoying after a while.

Plus, its good to be able to hear someone fizzle when fighting.

I have the music turned off, but I have the other sounds on. It's nice to hear when someone's running towards you.

"I have the music turned off, but I have the other sounds on."
Yeah the music gets a little redundant after a couple minutes and
besides ... Sosaria Live or The Flying Funk Radio has better tunes
to play by in the back background ....

"It's nice to hear when someone's running towards you."
You bet your last pan of cookies on that one .. especially for this ol
non fighting player ... mongbats can't catch up if they are heard first!!!!

`
ps ... Flying Funk Radio?? whose that you may ask ...

I have the same problem Ally. Very quiet sound lately coming from UO.

I always play with the sounds on. It's the only way I can hear the critters sneaking up on me. I usually play my own music though.

I have heard people complaining about the sound changes but they must be in 2D only. I have not noticed any difference in 3D.

**Ally** · 4th November 2005, 05:30 PM

Yeah I only play 2d, I tried 3d but I get real laggy.

Always play with sound and recently turned the music back on. I love it. I turn the music down while keeping the soundfx up so it's not annoying.
