More ambient music!

Would like to see more instances of music being triggered. Like for example: A number of Exos or marines in close proximity triggers adrenaline pumping music akin to when you attack a base, while aliens in a similar situation would have a more ominous score.
Same if you're alone for extended periods, with marines having music that promotes fear and anxiety. And aliens get <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgGJdgseU5o" target="_blank">jungle boogie</a>. :P

And obviously with an option to turn it off for the more competitive-minded folks.

    We seriously need a button for ambient to be able to turned off if you want to, it really ruins the competitive side of the game when you can't hear anything because of the them. And I can't stand how they are put into maps now because you can't even remove them.

    Certainly agree. In pubs I like it though :)

    I agree NS2 really needs more ingame music like NS1. :o

    Agreed with more ambient music, but also agreed with an option to turn it off. It's hard enough to hear as is with people rambling into the mic, ambient only adds to it.


    Still...I love ambient and I probably wouldn't turn it off unless it's starting to interfere to a good extent.

    I loved the ns1 ambiance from the world sounds and the game start music really helped.
