    When you die ingame, the ensuing soundbyte should just be one of the developers casually saying "oh no, I'm dead".

    Also, "ouch", "stop it" and "quit it" for when a monster hits the player.

    That along with the stuff in the video would be the best alternate soundpack ever.

    We should be able to unlock these after we beat the final boss.

    Imagine these during a giant fire fight between five or six players.

    It gets funnier.

    You guys notice there's two different gun types before the explosives? Lasers and bullets.

    What explains why the game isn't finished? The fact that the devs are real human beings (we think) with real lives who don't work on the game 24 hours a day and succumb to the every whim of the community? Give them a break. Maybe they should stop sleeping and eating and having sex too to get the game out faster? So what if one of the devs set aside a few hours to do something different and fun? There are different priorities in their lives than just working on the game.

    They have GOT to add in a unique laser weapon with the Pew Pew sound effect. :rofl:

    Having seen this it's clear to me that the devs REALLY need to get that pre-order out so they can afford to use sound effects other than "mouth-made" ones!!!

    Awesome video. Cracked me up! :rofl:

    PS I remember doing something similar back in the day with Doom 2. Vocalized sound effects made it hilarious!

    You heard us, Devs, ALTERNATE SOUNDPACK TIME (it would be the easiest thing in the world to finish)

    Does the background music actually play on your spaceship?

    I can't be the only one hoping so....... It would fit well, as it's technically the game's central hub. Areas like that often have a similar feel to the music in most other games.

    Because actual ammonia causes MAJOR balance issues. It forces you to carefully pick your gear. You have to use gear that uses Energy, or you could create a build that fires shots less often, but has more armor/damage. I don't know of you've ever played Terraria, but the BEST (without a doubt) PvP build was Hallowed Armor and a ranged weapon. Because you can wear über-defensive armor and just stockpile up on Ammo, ranged combat becomes excessively Overpowered.

    Good point LazerEagle1. I was actually thinking the same thing, but from the other perspective. Using ammo will force you to find it in game which could be an adventure in itself. But you are right, I hadn't considered it from an actual combat perspective, which in the long run is more important. Balancing combat is going to be very important considering the PVP aspects of this game. :)

    Hopefully the actual energy sounds you hear in the final product will be to everyone's liking, I admit they are proving a challenge, but you'll be pleased to know that replacing existing sound files is very easy. Community members will easily be able to make whatever sound packs for the game they wish. :)

    Yeah. I thought the same way as you when they announced no ammo, but after I gave it some thought I realized that it was a good decision. It means people can't just steamroll over literally everything in the game with W+M1. :)
