Okay clearly one of the audio designers thought it would be a good idea to make this mini pet annoying as hell with its repeated audio thingy it does and i would like to keep playing the game with sound, but at this rate with all the annoying sound things it is becoming less enjoyable for me to play guild wars.

Ive submitted earlier threads about annoying sounds but they ironically fell on deaf ears again, and now that section of the forum is just gone, so i will post it here.

These 2 minis are the worst though and i wish, really really wish the audio team would take note and try to imagine hearing those minis all day long.

Now, i know people would probably say, dont play with sound, well yeah maybe some do, but i cant play without sound, it just instantly becomes less of a game, but i just want sound and production designers to think about their creations and make things less annoying.

I’d rather they just add a “mute minis” option for people who don’t like to hear the minis than change the sound effects for those particular minis specifically. Preferably an setting with 3 options. " Mute all minis" “Mute other players mini’s” and “Hear all minis”.

I actually really like the sounds the Super Banana makes. Its really the only super mini that makes much noise at all any more, the first 3 in particular used to make a lot more sound than they do now and I was a bit sad when they changed those.

That would be a great option to have as well.

I like the noises my Princess Doll makes.

But I totally agree with the “mute minis” button. Shoot, while we’re at it, add a “hide other people’s minis” button as well.

I wish the mini plush griffon squeaked when it walked, but yeah ‘mute minis’ button +1 on my end. That or make them heard only by their owners, I mean the torch auras (FDS/balthazar back piece for example) are only seen by those wielding them. Thought it may be more difficult to program sounds the same way, I can’t say since I’m not a programmer.

Why would anyone make something meant to be annoying not annoying? That’ll be like making a sword that deals 0 damage.

I don’t really hear the sounds mini-pets make. Isn’t there an audio option to turn down/off such sounds? The one that controls other player’s music? I’m not sure which one it is, but I play with sound on, but have never heard the -Trons or such.

Good luck.

This Toxic Hybrid alone make me run away from every TP or Bank and turn off sound when doing world boss.

The SAB banana mini has, on multiple occasions since its introduction into the game, forced me to mute the game. I’m not even joking, it was so grating I flat out stopped playing for a week or so (I assumed it was a fad like the crow wings, and would be rare a week after release). It’s still a sound bite I have to listen to several times a minute whilst camped at any bank or TP. At this point, I’m willing to sacrifice all other sound effects just to avoid it. It bothers me that much. It’s just so, so annoying. PLEASE remove it, or diversify the sound options. It might sound petty, but it’s really ruining the game for me.

I would love the option to mute mini pets and backpacks. Not only are they annoying but I have migraines inherited from both parents (Thanks, mom. Thanks, dad) and repetitious/high pitched noises are a big trigger. As soon as I hear one of those things I hit the mute button as they can start a migraine in only a few seconds.

They gave us a way to turn off other players musical instrument sounds. I hope they would do this as well.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

They already nerfed the Spooky Ghost. He makes his sounds way less often than he used to.

I like the noises my Princess Doll makes.

I love mine too… which is why it upset me so much when they removed some of her sounds too. (The plaintive scream when you jump off a cliff or otherwise leave her behind).

Most of my Golems have lost their sound effects as well. They used to have nice “clunk-clunk!” footstep sounds, and made beeping and booping noises. Now they are all but silent.

The only FAIR way to deal with mini pet sounds is to have options:

  • Hear all mini pet sounds
  • Hear only your own mini pet sounds
  • Hear no mini pet sounds

Please institute this, and then restore all the sound effects that have been taken away!

Next step: do something about that SUPER ANNOYING golem backpack!

Yeah, this and Mini Ho-Ho-Tron are the only ones that bother me enough that I mute my sound when a player is nearby with them.

Hamfast has the right idea with the three-tier option. ANet knows this is an issue since they’ve had tons of threads (including my own when they minbogglingly changed Ho-Ho Tron to ring his bell almost endlessly—fortunately, they did reduce that eventually) about this. Why they’re dragging their feet could have a good reason, or they’re spending all their time on HoT, leaving myriad important bugs and annoyances to fester until later.

For those that have thrown the babies out with the bathwater and are playing without sound entirely, mini sounds can be adjusted using the Effects slider in your sound options pane (F11 to access). This is going to affect several other things, but it’s better than running silent.

We don’t want you to lose your ghost sounds or any others. In fact, we want them all RESTORED to their original specs.

What we want is to not have to hear OTHER PEOPLES’ minis.

And yes, I am still astonished about what creatures can and can’t swim in this world. Felines rival Jaques Cousteau, but canines can’t even dog paddle.

For those of you that don’t want to hear others mini pets or such, and perhaps this is going a little extreme, but in your Options Panel, Sound, if you turn down the Ambient Sound it should silence all of those Mini-Pets and Golem Back Items since I believe all those items are considered Ambient Sounds…unfortunately this will also eliminate all NPC sounds and Ambient creature sounds as well(except dialogue)…but then those must annoy you as well.

Actually if you will read you will see its only a few miniatures that are making people ask for this feature. I love the sounds in this game, but each time i hear those minis i have to turn my sound off, they drive me insane. Id rather just have an option to turn it off, and since it doesnt effect you i dont see what the problem is with asking for it

I don’t equip the minis. Other players do, which forces me to either put up with it, or sacrifice all other sound effects to avoid it. By all means, keep the mini noises!

Just give us an option to opt out of hearing it.
