Re: [Audyssey] My personal opinion on the castaways sounds
Hi, All I suggest is changing the pause and upnause sounds...they are a little obnoxious as they stand now.. But I like what you've done with the sounds otherwise.

Re: [Audyssey] My personal opinion on the castaways sounds
Kai, don't worry about lowering the volume of the sounds. I have already put in code that lets people adjust it as they play. > Greetings Jeremy. > > What I can do is render the sounds at a lower volume, too. > I rendered them at full volume, and it doesn't step on my > screen reader, but I realize this is probably not the case > with everyone.

That's way to subtle for me. I just built walls starting at p-20 through p-31 through y-31 through y-20 and x-20 through q-20. It's a big square with all my buildings, and so far it's working beautifully.

Re: [Audyssey] My personal opinion on the castaways sounds
I think there will be many differing opinions about the castaways sounds. It is part of the downside to having the temporary ones around for so very long. People got used to them and it is always hard to make that kind of change. The good news is that the sounds will remain as separate files so people can easily swap them out for ones they like better. Congratulations on completely walling yourself in on mission 3, so far that is the only way I've been able to beat it on hard mode. I've changed up my strategy a few times, but at the moment this is how I've managed to do it. Spoiler alert, of course. This is on the default map. I build my storehouse on O-28 and build 2 walls as soon as I have my settlement running well enough. The first wall goes at O-30 and the other wall goes at P-26. This seals off a perfectly protected piece of land that has 10 tiles of usable space. This isn't a very large piece of land, but 10 tiles gives me room for the storehouse, tavern, and 8 other buildings that I will need most. This isn't enough room to last forever, but it is very good knowing you have those 10 buildings totally protected. The next step is to try and defend myself as I expand outward to grab up more land. My next piece of land gives me 15 tiles of space, but it requires 4 walls to defend it completely. Walls must go at L-7, I-11, L-13, and M-12. If I can last long enough to get those walls built, that always gives me enough room to eventually beat the mission. Studying the map looking for the best places to try and defend has been an ongoing process, so I'm pretty sure other people have come up with other places that are good for defending also. I haven't played the new secondary map enough to find a favorite spot yet. > Hi all, and aprone in particular, > This may be an early opinion (I've only > been playing the new version for 20 minutes) but I'm liking > most of the new sounds.

[Audyssey] My personal opinion on the castaways sounds
Hi all, and aprone in particular, This may be an early opinion (I've only been playing the new version for 20 minutes) but I'm liking most of the new sounds. The only ones I don't prefer are the pausing and unpausing game sounds, (The pausing seems a little harsh, and the unpausing can easily cover the sound of a tick. Also, I really liked the sound for when things happen, the new one just kind of grates on me. I don't mean to be critical, I'm just giving my highly personal opinions. P.s: Also related to castaways, I have a challenge. After several hours of work, I have managed to get my multiplayer game entirely walled in and untouchable. I freely admit to having to reload my mission 3 save to get lucky on raids, and thus the challenge. If anyone can duplicate this (no limit on the size of the settlement, but it must be self-sustaining and contain all of your buildings) I would really like to know how you did it. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
