The skulks walljumping sound is really loud now. I understand the need for it to be audible but maybe you guys went a bit over the top.
The disturbance is very noticable to the player himself, the sounds drown out everything else around, and other jumping skulks nearby just make it worse. Other downside is -ofcourse- people hearing skulks coming at least 3 rooms away if not more, but even that i can live with, just lower the volume a bit overall. Marines can still hear, they just have to listen.
Aliens team spawning at the start of a round sound like a machine gun firing wall jumps, when everyone jumps away.

The resulting sound was hysterical
edit: obviously from the 263 thread, it is known.
Does anyone remember the skyrim meme - I used to be an adventurer, until I took an arrow to the knee?
I feel a meme is generating within NS2, and it can be heard from 2 rooms away...
Also, relevant image
Yes. I haven't heard any dev say a change will be made. Until it has been said (maybe it has already?) then people should express discontent if they feel something is broken.
I see. But there's probably also people that didn't follow that thread.
Alas, I will still continue to pew, at least it wasn't an arrow to the knee.
On a second thought, what is a bunch of lerks? A flock, a gang, a pack, a murder, a brood, Clutch,
Volary, Brace, Plump, Knob, Destruction, cast, gaggle, a screech, Party, Scold, Band, Horde, Nest, Swarm, Rabble, Plague?

The Minister of Silly Posts has spoken.
a Murder of Lerks
a Gathering of Fades ;-)
a Bloat of Gorges (same as Hippo)
a Rumble of Oni
Corrected by the minister. Let it be known that this is what the kharra shall now be known as when in groups of relative species.
It's a fade/skulk hybrid! (with a touch of hallucinations)
a Murder Clorf of Lerks
a Gathering of Fades Fade ball
a Bloat of Gorges GOOOORGE RUUUUUUSH
a Rumble of Oni What's that noise? OR: Oh fuck
Now where were we.
Ah right in the middle of talking about loud skulks.
The real issue should be, why in damnation is the ONOS TAUNT STILL THE QUIETEST THING IN THE GAME?!
Compare to fade taunts.
