2nd: I don't really mind the new JP sound. It's different granted, but I really don't have a preference. If you were to make me choose, I'd say it's fine, and that I like it just alright.
The new jet pack sound is great, sounds like some small turbine. I can't stand the pistol or chuckle sounds, I've been using the ones from 1.0x all along.

Its okay, but I still like the b4 one more <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Well, it has one good side and it has one arse side:
<b>Good:</b> The gradient-sound that plays when you take off or land is really snatchy -truly adds a feeling to it.
<b>Arse:</b> Beware aliens: we have brand new Hover 2000 -vacuums and we will suck you in. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I've seen a Gorge get sucked in by it. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And yes, Chucklespam is indeed the master of the universe. All they needed to add was a way of killing Marines with it, and it would have been the dominating centerpiece of the Kharaa.

I suppose if you like the idea of a squad of housemaids zooming into a hive with their dustbusters of dewm to clean up the kharaa mess then yeah, the sounds are good.
The new sound rocks, much better than the old one <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I'll join the minority and say that i really like the new JP sounds <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Maybe if the pitch was lowered some (like the original intention was, if I recall correctly) to make it sound more like a turbine . . . but it's not all that bad.
I gotta go with the fact that I like it. Even though you get a lot of "COMM! GIMME A LEAFBLOWER ASAP!" comments it fits the workings of the JP. And the new JetPack is more a JumpPack anyway and it sounds like its giving short "boosts". I like it!

As I think it sound like a Turbine, so it fits
so ney to the naysayers.
and the welders freaking pwn tbh
only thing I don't like is how it loops. like they just forced a sample-restart from the middle to the end, which is the loop.
it doesn't sound seamless.
but the new "winding up" sound is really nice. the old sound was just some weird sputter, and didn't really sound like a machine..

Why oh why did they remove our chucklespam tho. I miss that from the 1.x days.

Download for 1.0x pistol and chuckle sounds?

I love the new sounds.
