I don't usually participate in forums but since I really really like the game i will do an exception here.
tl;dr: The music of this game needs work, its the most boring thing about the game right now.
Throughout all the Multiplayer things I got to play, the most boring part of the game was always the music. Match startup screen has boring drums that are more annoying than pumping, the World Map screen has these slow violins that make me fall asleep and I dont think there is any form exciting combat music in this game. I would be kind of disappointed if all the good music is gonna be in the Singleplayer campaign only.
I for my part view this game more as a Fighter than anything else so I think its fair to compare it to a Street Fighter in that regard where every character has their own battle theme and every map has a theme. Character Themes would be, I think, an easy thing to implement into 1v1s and a specific Map battle theme would be nice in Dominion matches.
I also want to suggest a little jingle, specific to class, that plays when you lockon to someone so you have an audio key for the lockons, which can be hard to tell at times. Of course that would have to come with an option to turn of the "lockon jngles" if the player finds them more annoying than helpful.
We need some John Williams music in here.Originally Posted by Vyrnex Go to original post
I like the idea of the drums and violin, it stays classic to the era of the times for this game. However, I think the music for the map should be dependent on your faction. The Japanese should have oriental music that aligns with their dynasty times, Vikings should probably have more heavy combat drums or something, and the knights should have their own thing as well..
But I'm also fine with what they have. I just don't want to hear some stupid jingle like you do in the Civilization games.....
