Guild Wars 2

I find the voices around tryia to be distracting and a bit annoying so I like to turn the dialog right down. However, of course I’d like to hear my character speak in a cutscene. Maybe you could split the volume sliders? Thanks

They’ve said they were looking at splitting volume sliders for weapon sounds, but it would be a lot of work. It would be nice if we could split off a bunch of things like ambient conversation/ambient noise, our weapon sounds/other people’s weapon sounds, our attack sounds/other people’s attack sounds.

Well, not really nice, I’d rather they spend time making more cool gear with great visuals and sounds. But I hate having to worry that stuff I like is going to be ruined because somebody else doesn’t like it and complains.

That’s exactly why sliders need to be incorporated into the game. The original necro staff sound was removed, and replaced with a very soft and odd sound. I did not like the old necro staff sound because it was so loud, not because of the sound itself. There are many weapon sounds in the game that need to have the volume level adjusted. My Greatsaw went from no sound, to good sound, then after some complaints, the sound was nerfed to where I could not hear it. Then they raised the volume and now I can hear it, but only if I am not fighting. A chainsaw is supposed to be loud. People will keep complaining until every weapon sound is nerfed into soft elevator music like noises. The sooner we get sliders, or separate, stand alone sound files, the better off things will be in this game.
