I am so embarrassed by the Warhorn sound my warrior waits till he is out of the city before he uses it for the speed buff. It’s like going outside to fart.

I just began to use the warhorn yesterday (Really, I have never used one before).
I equiped my new warrior, selected the warhorn skill to get the swifness I love so much for map exploration…

And star laughing my lungs out. My charr was literally farting its way across Tyria!
I thought it was an intended joke until I saw this thread. Now I want to be sad… but I can’t. It is still so hilarious…

I’ve heard the claim that the new sound is “more realistic” from several people now, but I have yet to hear any horn, be it made from brass or animal horns, that sounds like wet flatulence.

A well-made horn has a clear tone. What “realistic” horn is the new GW2 horn sound based off of?

I played trumpet in elementary school. It’s the sound made by large horns (e.g. baritone, tuba) when they’re played poorly by a beginner. You need to blow a certain minimum volume of air (while flapping your lips) to make a sound. The bigger the horn, the more air you need. If you’re just a little short, the horn will rapidly alternate between sound and no sound, giving it the pulsating effect that sounds like a fart.

Not sure why someone at Anet thought that would make a cool horn sound. Nobody intentionally plays that way, unless they’re trying to make the kids laugh.

Please, ANet – if there’s different players who love the new warhorn sound and who doesn’t – just make some in game switch in Main menu – Options – Sound options – Warhorn sound and let the players decide what is best for them.

This new sound is OUGHFUL and it makes me stressed already …

I think I’ve heard the new warhorn several times and each time it sounds so much like a dramatic background effect it takes me a while to realise what I’ve heard, or even wonder if I did hear it or just imagine it.

I just make sure I’m with a bunch of other players, so they don’t know who that sound is coming from.

It’s quite possible this was intentional to incentivize people to buy BLC skins that use unique warhorn sounds such as the Red Lion horn.

That would be fun for a playable instrument. Add a rain stick as staff, a koala mini, and a kangaroo pet and you have the start of a theme.

Edit: I just realized how off topic that was, so back to it. Please fix our warhorns

When I first saw the thread, I figured peeps were over-reacting.

…Then I swapped to warhorn on one of my characters. It is, without exaggeration, depressing. Please get a real warhorn, blow it into a mic, and use that sound instead, because what we have now sounds like blowing raspberries on someone’s baby. :\

It sounds like more breaking wind with a wet one. Really poor planning/design/programming/decision making (all of the above) or a bug. Doesn’t matter—very poor quality for such a talented group of designers regardless of the reason we are stuck with it, other than ignoring the tread and giving players a special salute,

I just experienced this wind(y) instrument for myself on my warrior. Good thing I don’t use it that often. It feels rather embarrassing.

Those who blow it, know it. Those who hear it, fear it.

Seriously, still no official word. Not even a “we hear your complaint but that’s how it’s gonna be” – which would be awful, but still better than this silence. My Howler is beginning to gather dust in my bank.

Quite honestly, I’ve heard farts that sound better than this. Having now had my ears assaulted by it in a number of different circumstances, to me it sounds like an old creaky door.

What were you thinking? The old sound was a bit annoying but nothing like this.

Please for the love of sanity get rid of this awful, dull and frankly uninspiring rubbish.

I thought there was no possible way that farting warhorns were anything more than a massive programming failure . This is the new sound? I’m annoyed every time I use it on my necro, and that’s ALOT. It’s like they let a 3rd grader decide what the sound would be.. Were they following a new principle….if it ain’t broke, break it?. I LOL’ed hard the first day, but now it’s :=&

I am also repulsed by the new fart-horns. I primarily play an Elementalist, and the new weapon that we are going to get is a warhorn, which makes me particularly concerned about their current sound. I really don’t like it, and on all of my other characters I actually avoid using a warhorn, even on my Warrior and Necromancer.

I saw nothing wrong with the previous sounds, and I hope that they get changed back or an entire elite specialization for the Elementalist will practically go unused.

Thanks for your consideration!
