Redesigning Audio in Hangars

I feel like the option for PA lines almost demands one of those airport zone lines. Something like “The Red Zone is for loading and unloading munitions only. Do not transfer non-munition cargo in the Red Zone.”

Take a note from the movie airplane.

The white zone is for biological cargo only. Not for munitions or inorganic cargo.

The ONLY way to satisfy the EVE audio snobs is to have each individual ambient sound adjustable from the “Advanced” tab, customizeable, exportable for other accounts/toons, and so on.

Those are good, and as far as I’ve read, the only serious announcements announcement.

How it came about has absolutely nothing to do with how it is played now.

I had I think 4 characters doing FW at one stage - I swapped factions to earn the best LP as did thousands of others - FW may have started out as something thinly related to “loyalists” it is far from that now

There is no similarity - An employee of CCP changing the behaviour of NPC’s can’t be compared to the actions a player may take.
But it does show one thing very clearly - What players do is meaningless if CCP don’t like it, they will punish you for it - Even if it is something players see as a long term improvement.

All this is off topic though - The issue is, do we really need more pointless drivel being spouted every time we dock just because…

If we are to be bombarded by “system sounds” at least make them relevant - Short one liners like those being asked for here aren’t needed or necessary - Give us REAL information about what is going on in the game, preferably as it is going on.

Try announcing;
Upcoming live events ahead of time so more than those who spend all their time on social media know when something is coming up.
Plex or premium deals and where they can be obtained
and if there is ever a reason to fight over Sov that sort of thing may be of interest to many as well.

There are many things good audio engineers can do - Don’t cheap it out by doing only what’s easy.,.

Amarr stations just have to have something about fedos, and something else for a call to prayer. Caldari should have some sort of harsh bureaucratic warnings.

Edit: All should have Quafe ads.

Base it from the likes of Clear Skye,s ahead diffent accents to each station but ensure that the accent stays with that station surely if you like the accent you will keep visiting I would suggest only women accents on the basis that the larger number of males play the game but prehaps the sisters could all be males to balance the bigger number of actual female players will most often stay at sisters of eve missions stations but i,m male and fly predominatly female characters because there less often targets thats my thinking Sexist as it may sound/ be someone should say it how i see it rigardless of the race of the station Yours faithfully Fan of Clear skyes and Captain Harlock

Caldari and Amarr can both pull lines from THX 1138 confession scene : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0YkPnwoYyE

You are a true believer. Blessings of the state, blessings of the masses.

Let us be thankful we have an occupation to fill.

Work hard. Increase production. Prevent accidents. And be happy.

Have you tried the CCP soundcloud page?

PS. Could the audio team please concider how tedious these sounds will become over time.

As someone who spends a great deal of time trading in Jita, the audio of the hangars in Caldari space impacts my quality of life significantly. PLEASE don’t make Caldari audio gloomy or depressing… having to sit there and listen to depressing ambient sounds is bad for long term depression. Let’s make Caldari more happy please? The current audio for Caldari is calm and peaceful… the new Caldari audio is gloomy and foreboding. Please make Jita great again… don’t make it sound depressing.

Just some PA lines I thought up…

“To avoid unintended losses Upwell reminds you not to fly in your training clone.”
“To the owner of the Ibis in hangar 24B, you left your mooring lights on.”
“As a reminder, the station airlocks are not to be used as observation decks.”
“Mind your step, breaking red will result in clone destruction.”

**Unique Jita PA’s:
When a gank happens at undock: “Be mindful of your undock, ganking activities have been witnessed within the docking perimeter!”
Also, “Jita Trade Hub is not responsible for monetary loss due to local chat scammers.”

No idea who Simon Stevnhoved is but if there was a prize for the most repetitous line of sound effects he’s got it hands down.

On the other hand it did remind me of why “Eve has no sound”

Ok, this topic gave me an idea… maybe you should improve audio chatter for space also. Something along the lines of Freelancer…ish… to add to the atmosphere of living breathing space :slight_smile:

Eh, why not:

  • “Welcome! We regret that our captain’s quarters are currently closed due to routine uselessness.”
  • “Welcome! Kindly report any sightings of synaptic occitors to the station manager immediately.”
  • “Welcome! We remind all pilots that storage of frozen corpses in the PLEX-operated station coolers is strictly prohibited.”
  • “The white zone is for Corp Deliveries and Crippled Freighters only.”
  • “The red zone is reserved for Pod Arrivals only.”
  • “Emergency Medical Response is located directly across from the red zone”
  • “The Clone Facility can be found by following the flashing yellow skulls along the gangways”
  • “All cargo is subject to inspection pursuant to CONCORD’s Contraband Act. Contraband includes all perishable fruit, vegetables, proto-organisms, attribute-altering drugs and undocumented slaves.”
  • “We’d like to remind all pilots that launching fireworks while docked is strictly prohibited.”
  • “Attention all Capsuleers: your requisition for a new corvette must be filled out in triplicate, because the PEND Insurance claims adjustor cannot count higher than one.”
  • “All micro jump drives and web modules will be automatically disab…All ship-mounted weapons, micro jump drives and web…All ship-mounted weapons, including launchers, micro…All ship-mounted weapons, launchers, bombs and…oh, f*ck it.”
  • “Drone relief stations are located on Decks B, C, H and M. There is a limit of five drones per relief station.”
  • “This is a reminder to all pirates who may have temporarily circumvented our security systems: kindly pick up after your slavehounds.”
  • "Remember that the security of a PLEX-operated storage locker is the renter’s responsibility. "
  • “Attempting to hack a PLEX-operated storage locker can result in death, dismemberment or a wardec.”

Background chatter:

  • Woman speaking through intercom: “We’d like to remind all pilots that…OHMYBOB – A SYNAPTIC! ON YOUR CONSOLE!”
  • “Was that a…did we just tractor in a rogue drone? (mechanical, high-pitched cackle over crackling intercom)”
  • Man 1: “Bob’s balls, did he just --” Man 2: “Ayep, he just docked sideways. I’ll call the morgue.”
  • “I don’t care WHAT Republic Fleet that afterburner comes from, you can’t use it to BLOW TORCH the Dominix parked next to you!”
  • Old EVE music over crackling intercom, sultry voice announces, “Thought Gallente Pleasure Hubs were gone for good? You were wrong…visit us on Deck Mmmm for a good…” fades out.
    “Has it ever occurred to you that, deep down inside all these billions of ISK worth of ships, we’re all just a bunch of marinating naked mole rats…”
    Man 1: “THE END IS NIGH!” Sound of laser. Man 2: “Yeah, it sure was.”
    “…well I don’t know. It’s not like Empress Catiz and her Honor Guard are gonna get anywhere…”
