As the title suggests, while playing in the beta, did you guys listen to any music? What do you think goes well with this game's theme/gameplay?

I found that the soundtrack from Tribes Ascend fits this game almost perfectly, and so does the music from Cell 7!

Oh dear.. see. For the main menu, sure, I could see a nice music track. But for in game, I actually prefer there to be no music.. Mainly because the sounds are so subtle already.

However... saying that:

I probably should have clarified, I didn't mean to make it sound like I was asking "What is the BEST genre for this game" I was curious to see what other people liked to listen to while playing. :P

I can understand why, hearing footsteps alone can change a situation completely quite quickly. I usually have my music just quiet enough that I can hear it during large fights, but it's not so loud that I can't hear in game sounds clearly.

Topic title = Synesthesia
I am used to play multiplayer games without music but you reminded me how much I enjoyed the soundtrack of Unreal Tournament (99). It added to the overall feeling. It is possible to install a hi-fi into a mech but I prefer hearing the major details in this game. Maybe some industrial, aggrotech music would fit for this game.

Darkane Chaos VS Order would be a great menu theme.

I listened to no music during the beta whatsoever. Though these songs did come up in my head once or twice while I was playing.





Yeah, the late 80s and early 90s were inventive with their melodies, weren't they? I'm sorry to those of you who were unfortunate enough to not have any memories of this era of gaming. The first would be as much at home in Megaman, or for that matter, early Starfox. (Then again, the game it's from, X, is kind of a spiritual predecessor to Starfox.) The second is just kind of otherworldly, but it has a very nice, oddly peaceful calm about it - contrasting to the explosions and destruction outside of your cockpit.

Reason as my minor ego, and opposite my desire to be a murderer.
A coagulated, gloomy thinking in the intelligence, as my major ego.
An antinomian theorem of behaviorism, in all of my thinkings.

Brawl music= Yes. All of the yes.
I tried listening to some old music, couldn't really get into it personally, other than Mega Man X1/X5 music. I never thought about Starfox, I'll have to try that out next beta.

EDIT-PS: I just thought of old Metroid music, that'd probably work pretty well too.

Anything that will gets your blood pumping and adds style to your Insanity, this is one of my favorite songs I use while playing FPS games.  To me I think this one is perfect for Hawkens.  :rolleyes:  Enjoy

I'll play Borderlands 2 for that. Claptrap's got all my beatboxing needs.

...Even if I have to jump through hoops to get it.

They could.

Something more modern... hm. If there ever is a map that takes place at dusk, this would work really well.

The name rings a bell, but unfortunately I'm going to have to say I don't know it. The song sounds painfully familiar though. For some reason it reminds me of Einhander, which is weird because the music style is pretty different, I think it's 1:09 that's throwing me off haha.



As you can see.

oh, i was going to make a comment down the lines of "what, do you read sheet music while you play or something?"  But then I noticed you posted videos, so, I guess that kinda counts as "seeing" music.

I thought I might learn new songs and play them through the headset for everyone. You know. To motivate.
