Useless bump of a month-old thread, but...

I would solidly approve with appropriate gratitude some mirrors, an air horn, and a decently audible back-up alarm.

 

Yes please, I need something to honk with on my car-with-legs-and-guns, loudly. BEEP BEEP GET OUT OF THE WAY.

 

This idea requires new thread, for devs, to make them sure they'll read this.

 

Air horn - every class differ in tone, C would be like trucks or sth. A or C like normal car, and weaker/stronger version for third class. I NEED THIS.

 

Beep Beep!

 

 

PS: And trailers in siege mode. 2 per base, You come over, lock your mech's clamps on them, bring them to EU stations, get sweet energy and beep back to base :D

[EM1O]

seriously. the annoying A-frame dork clogging the front tunnel on Facility, Queen Mary sized Air Horn!

BLLLAAAAAA get your scrawny ass moving AAAAAAAT!!

 

and that post somewhere, that wanted the physics of a 800 armor juggernaut ramming into a 315 armor animated ant produced an effect--such as the ant getting slammed out of the way or fatally squashed.

I never knew I needed this in my life until now, but darn do I need it now. Also would suggest having hairhorns change on abilty. For example changing the hairhorn on the Raider from a standard one to full-blown fog horn during blitz.

 

Also Scout should get a vuvuzela sound.

I demand my Battle Turkey play La Cucaracha when I Blitz² at plebes.

[StubbornPuppet]

Best idea EVAR!

 

No, seriously.  I think a customizable air horn sound and back-up beeps on the mechs in Hawken would add a real sense of humor that it seems folks really enjoy in an online game.  The game I played online, far longer than any other, was Farcry: Instincts - and the best part was how damn funny the game could be.  One of the best parts was the bicycle bell on the hang glider - "bling bling" and then, just as the guy looks up, you drop a grenade on his head.  BWAAAAHHHAHAHAA!

On topic though: Yes. As long as they have a cooldown so they can't be spammed much

They can have different default car horns for different mechs, and then add odd-ball horns like vuvuzela and the likes as cash shop items.

 

I'd spend a little money to put a god damn vuvuzela on my mech.

Yall are way late to the party.

 

They already thought of it, look in your ini files, its already in game.

Bindings=(Name="GBA_Horn",Command="PlayVehicleHorn")

Bindings=(Name="L",Command="GBA_Horn")

The default key is L, my guess is there just isn't a specific sound file in the upks.  There also might of been some reason why they've omitted it.  shrug.

I laughed hard. Imagine War wednesday - organized match turning into organized performing some song made of mech's horns. Yey

But it still require effort to be put in it - add those sounds actually, allow player to  choose/buy diffrent effects etc.

 

Please Captn, please captn, please captn !

In this thread people say lot about it being annoying or sth - I doubt ppl would spam it during fights, horns would be low and strong tone, devs can decrase intensity, making it weaker than other in-game sounds etc. Hawken has great financial system - making money on customizatons and fancy stuff, that have no impact @ fight performance. This can be 1 more source of money for devs AND server to be running, instead of making this game pay to win, which is my biggest concern. But dont even think about making horns available only for money (defaults for free i mean, like taunts)

Dude.

Need right now the GoT airhorn version on my mech.
Right. Now.

[Siamenis]

Could be fun, but make it sound alienish or just different than what we have in real life. Something like this:



Or maybe make it the sound at the start of a match, I dunno, I'm just brainstorming.

Nice, why not if ppl like it, but i wanna my truck horn!

 

DEVELOPERS? It seems that people likes the idea, relate to this (yes/no/meaby/this month/next one).

I think i'm gonna make video with added those sound effect, u know, fatty boosting, and then BEEEEB BEEEEB. Meanwhile some scout monkey fly over with that wuwuzela or sth. Whenever i'll find some spare time to do so.

[The_Silencer]

just as side note if you allow me the license..

 

suddenly playing la cucaracha song during a match for an pilot running cheetos isn't so bad idea as one quite potential & good anti-cheating counter-meassure.

 

do you cheat? Ok... then.. enjoy the song as you're having your crappy fun and/or turn off the audio, dude!

 

lol

Well heres a horn  Im a train suck my fuzzy bunny!

[Pleasure_Mortar]

I'd love to have a horn on my predator.

Sneak up on unsuspecting enemy, ready detonator, BLAST AIRHORN, alphastrike!

Toot toot  muthahumpa!

[Chickin]

I'd like trumpet/harmon sound for predator.

I would mostly use this standing besides opponent's fiery grave.

Imagine two or three preds playing a tune for fallen comrade.
