  1. Is it (or will it be) possible to mute or (even better) change the kill boink sound? I'm not an old Renegade player and as a first-timer it sounds absolutely ridiculous to me within the rest of the context of the game.
  2. Was the boink sound effect in the "final" version of the original Renegade, or just in the beta? I just have a hard time comprehending why so many of you seem to like it. I guess that maybe I'd have a different opinion if I played the original Renegade (although I have played many C&C games), but that sound effect completely ruins whatever amount of immersion is there for me. It sounds like it belongs in a children's game or some kind of cartoon. Renegade X deserves much better.
  3. Suffice to say that I appreciate those of you who have taken the time to explain why the sound effect is there in the first place without being a total dick about it. As a newcomer, I truly have no idea what is and is not "supposed" to be in a C&C Renegade game, and I didn't see any disclaimer stating that I to be a long-time fan in order to play X.
  4. Are you ok? I'm going to assume (I know, I'm taking quite a liberty here) that you didn't mean to say that I was "defending" the boink sound, because that would mean that I like it. Furthermore, did you even read my post? I'm making the simple point that (in my opinion), it doesn't fit in with the otherwise serious nature of the game. That's all I'm saying. After reading through the replies I get that it's a nostalgia thing and I think it's cool that the devs of RX are doing some fan service in that regard, but as a newcomer it seems silly to me and completely out of place. Oh, and while I'm at it:
  5. The first time I heard the "boink" sound effect I took off my headphones and looked around my room because I had no idea where it came from. When I discovered that it was coming from Renegade X, I was a little disturbed. In my opinion, this sound effect doesn't belong in a game which otherwise seems to take it self seriously. It sounds very out of place. I hope it's just a placeholder for another sound effect which would be more appropriate. Something like the kill sound effect in BF3, for example. Anyways, just wanted to put in my $0.02. I think Renegade X is pretty cool and for the most part, I like everything about it. I do kind of wish that the aiming could be toggled on and off instead of having to hold down the right mouse button (for most weapons). But other than those two things, no specific complaints come to mind.
