Deceiven Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Each giants needs it's own new, approach warning rather than the same old growling noise for all of them! To clarify, I am referring to the warning system you hear just before a giant is to arrive. Currently all the giant's approach is signaled by the same deep moaning kind of growling sound...which is effective at first, but am I supposed to believe a giant firefly or Goose/Moose thing was the cause of it? I think adding unique warning noises for each giant would help create more atmosphere, there's nothing more creepy than hearing a loud and menacing noise in the middle of the night which you've never experienced before. The current warning system loses it effect as you hear it every time a giant appears. Hound attacks have their own warning noise, krampus has his own warning noise, big foot even has his own warning noise, so why not giants? Also saying that it ruins the surprise of what giant is actually coming is silly because you know what giant is coming by what season it is anyways. So for those who agree with me what do you think would be some good warning noises for each of the giants?

DwerBomb Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Yea they should have different sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillPwn4Food Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I can only speak for the firefly, since he's the only one I've encountered (over 10 winters in vanilla and never seen the deerclops, can you believe it?) I know that I was thrown off by hearing the moaning growl and then a giant winged bug showed up as the source. I'd suggest either a flapping of wings or a sizzling, perhaps a combination of the two if possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battal Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'm betting that's going to come in the next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest either a flapping of wings or a sizzling, perhaps a combination of the two if possibleI've FINALLY begun seeing them. Like, it's only taken 300+ hours but I've started getting Giants every season. Makes me so happy. :3 But yeah, Giants probs do need their own Warning--however, I'm cool with them not, too.

spencer320 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I agree with Lord_Battal. The warning noises will most likely be updated. Keep in mind this is still in Beta and not everything has been implemented just yet. With that said.... Will we get a trailer video today?? Plz!!

cancan460 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 The dragonfly needs a screeching noise, perhaps with some crackling of fire and fluttering of wings to accompany it.The Goose/Moose needs a brass-instrument-like warning call, preferably a very low tone.The bearger would be okay with a growl.The deerclops... Not sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InaneDugong Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Thing is, the current call is really quite ominous. If you're going to add more, they need to be just as ominous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure...I like these, although I'd say the deerclops should keep the current sound rather than the bearger as I feel it suits him better and hes also had it from the start anyways. Technically the bearger is a bear-badger and badgers don't really make any sound so god knows what will work for the bearger while still being unique.

Hundkerchief Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 SethRMeh 294 postsPosted 04 April 2014 - 08:03 PMYes, a fix should be coming out today. The giants will eventually get their own warning sounds. SethR told me that they will. (sorry for the ugly quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boingydoo Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I am guessing that they were just using the deerclops sound as a place holder while they were making the other sounds.The dragonfly warning is a sound many will learn to dread, I just hope its sound scares people who are not expecting the dragonfly.

rivenwyrm Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'm betting that's going to come in the next update.I sure hope so... Seems like the kind of thing that typically gets left alone until things are being wrapped up, but it's such a small thing to fix and such a big atmospheric shift. I would be extremely surprised if they didn't already intend to change them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
