Overall, I love the environmental/ambient sounds in Guild Wars 2. I’ve played other games where a crowded area (starbase) would be completely silent and it was very…odd. So I’ve come away with a great appreciation for the sound design in this game. It really adds to the immersion!

I ventured into the Wayfarer Foothills for the living story…and I have just one small suggestion: decrease the frequency of ice crackling in the background. It’s a really nice effect, mind you. Just too much of a good thing, almost to the point of distraction. I’d like to hear that cold wind a little better. : )

I wonder if any of my fellow players have noticed this as well? If I’m alone in this, I’ll deal. Thanks.

Yes, I also noticed this. I think it’s a bug, because wherever you go around the map, constantly heard the sound of breaking ice or snow falling pieces.
