    now, i dont know if its just me, but i realy hate the high sound of the ark guns, Laser guns comes as nr.1 hater..

    i always have speakers on if i play, but the problem is, every time i use some Ark gun, me wife is beating the living shit out of me because of he sound they have ( well, beat is hard to say, more like, turn down 4 that shit sound )

    using another guns like doa/ml/x1 Hl xx or whatever is no problem with me wife, i myself also like the sound..

    Soo.. Is there any change u could make the sound a bit deeper, not saying it has to sound like guns from other planets.. just a bit deeper.. pleace.. beeging on my knees :)

    ps.. Ark team is doing a realy nice job (whatever they can change the sound or not ) :)

    Hi Camilla,

    Thanks for the feedback. We will have a look at the laser sounds. Any changes will, unfortunately, not be reflected in this coming update, but the next one.

    Cheers,
    Cyrus

    np if its going to be in the next update or not.. just give "Ozi" a laser gun, and force him playing 3 hours or more with that sound.. im going to bet that his going to get crasy ;) at least "Missa" is going to..

    but then again, if it only me that have that problem.. dont change it.. waist of time and money

    It's not only you :)
    I like to use Ark laser guns, but mostly I don't because of this awful sound. I guess some more ppl would like to have a rework off it....

    It's a known issue reported from launch day...

    Not only don't I use it (actually I don't have to as I use another gun) but even prefer to hunt where people are not using one, this sometimes means moving somewehere else to hunt or even avoiding arkadia alltogether.

    Annoying part is sometimes people start using them on Calypso ! bah ;)

    Maybe you are talking about the long range sound bug? That one was reported from beginning and was fixed longer ago. That was the bug you could hear full volume laser sound across radar distance.

    Now it is reduced to normal distance, but the pew-pew-pew is a pain for yourself when using it :)

    Just for the record, the sound might not be the coolest ever, but I don't mind it.

    On a side note, there are times when it would be nice to turn up/down the volume of certain sounds compared to others. For example, weapon, tool, emote, hit. Might be nice if MA gave us some more options along these lines.

    You can categorise it however but the pew pew is annoying and I never liked it from day one, I think many mentioned it at the time...and yes somehow they fixed the bug element but kept the annoying pew pew sound itself.

    Yes, this would be nice. Invariably some mobs noises for example are going to getting annoying if you are going to hunt them 6 hours plus per day. I know some people for this reason will avoid hunting a mob.

    It's a platform issue though so little point in even talking about it. Ark team will say nothing to do with them and they are right. Then you go into the age old issue of poor communications with MA. I doubt that will get better anytime soon, so problems like this will probably only come to light when MA pay a consultancy firm thousands and they in turn ask us. Madness of bureaucracy at it's best :)

    The only viable and realistic solution I conclude is divorce.

    Spoken like a TRUE gamer!

    (as long as the new super computer does not go to her in the divorce.)

    Hmm...Good point! That'd be an unworthy sacrifice indeed...

    Definately turn the volume down then!
    :)

    Personally, I like the laser sounds from Arcadian guns. They sound more like I imagine lasers would; much more so than low-end lasers from Calypso, which are just a generic gunshot bang. However, making them a bit like the big lasers (LR series for example) might not be so bad.

    Agreed.

    For me it's not that the (laser) sound is annoying, I can tolerate it. It's that it just sounds too 'weak', and it makes my gf laugh when she hears it. It sounds like something you would hear from a gun that does 1dmg and shoots rainbows. Instead of pew pew pew, it should be deep and rich, more of a bwah bwah bwah. With that said, the Ark guns are great, and I'll keep using them no matter the sound they make. :)
