Title: Sound?
Post by: Elysium on 09 January 2017, 07:34:20 PM
So there's no sound?

I suppose I don't care about quasi-medieval background music, but there's no confirmation sound, no "you just shuffled your deck sound," no you just drew a card sound?

I don't really see anyone talking about it so I guess no one else thinks this is kind of a big deal for "feedback" as you play?

It's been mentioned in numerous other threads, but has not had a thread of it's own (At least that I could find in the search) up until now :)

Thanks for posting it.  I too miss the shuffling and Province/Colony Gold/Platinum sounds.  Although ideally the different levels should have different sounds and perhaps less concussive and speaker blowing :P

I don't think there should be an overabundance of sounds, but a few well chosen and placed ones would be welcomed by me.

In one of the other threads that I can't find again, some mentioned it's browser dependent. The point of that post was Chrome has a setting which shuts down the sound the most.

However, after reading that thread I experimented with Firefox and still have no sound except the start game sound. There's a good chance it's a similar problem as I tend to keep my privacy/security settings high in all my browsers. One of the admins responded, saying it was new info and they would look at it.

I suspect for anyone savvy you could play with your browser settings to perhaps get it working or at least provide feeedback so they cah get the sound working more reliably across platforms.

There isn't much sound at the moment but it'll certainly get added.

I don't really care about hearing the shuffle or the gold and province purchases. But I do wish there was a sound when you need to play a reaction card or discard down (as in Militia, etc). That would help games keep moving a little smoother. Sometimes I can be actually staring mindlessly at the screen, waiting for my turn, for the cards to shift up the way they do, and I don't realize that it is actually me that needs to take action. Guilty as charged!  ;D I can see that something like that happens to opponents as well.

I too miss sound - and it should be simple enough to enable a customize sounds menu, that allow individual players to turn individual types of sound on/off.

I agree it "should be simple enough", but I don't think it is a very high priority.  Also, if you are feeling it, and have the know-how, you could always make a mod to do this!
