Is there a way to turn off the sound of the asteroid cracking as you mine it
It’s immensely annoying and it does it gas huffing as well which is really dumb - and no, I don’t want to turn the World Level down, I want to turn this singular unwanted noise off.
You can’t turn it off like you can’t turn off just Shotgun sounds in a shooter. Or just Dragon noises in an RPG. Or just Space Marine sounds in an RTS. Stop expecting solutions for every little personal attitude. If you can’t stand the sound, disable the category and be thankful that CCP even implemented different categories. In many other games you simply have the option “Sound” or “No Sound”.
Ungrateful snowflakes…
EVE has sound?

So rock breaking sounds while extracting gas is normal?
Good on you for sticking up for idiocy - it’s rare for someone to be so honest about themselves.
It wouldn’t even be so bad that like other sounds, when you zoom out the volume decreases, but no… As loud as you like fully zoomed out.
I didn’t say that. A request that Gas Scoops should make “gas scooping sounds” instead of “rock breaking sounds” would even be reasonable.
A request for an option to specifically disable sound of gas miners or mining modules is not reasonable.
I think it’s perfectly reasonable when it has been foisted on us without anyone asking for it, and it was perfectly fine before without it.
I also gave a compromise - that the sound be location specific like most are so that when you zoom out, it becomes quieter.
What’s unreasonable about that?
CCP as develeoper of the game seems to disagree, else they hadn’t implemented it. They didn’t hit the spot tho, I’d agree with that. A gas harvesting module should make gas-harvesting sounds, not rock-breaking sounds.
I wasn’t refering to your compromise but to your initial approach. Making the sound location-bound like most other turret sounds is an absolutely fine idea and basically how it should have been right from the start.
