I understand that WG sound engineers need to keep busy, but do we really need croaking frogs on Malinokva, barking dogs on Port, and moaning islamists on Oasis? I'm certain that a tank would drown out anything but a 747 passing 50 feet overhead. Focus on better tank engine and gun sounds.

They will never change the gun sounds and engine sounds. If you want to change the sounds you need to change it yourself.

I like the chicken sounds on Lost temple. Have to be by the right building to hear them.

I consider the various sound effects nice little Easter Eggs. Chicken? Crickets? LOL.
Except for the human voices at the worship building in the corner on the new Oasis Palms. I'm trying to be PC here, but I disliked it from the first time I heard it, because it is just ongoing. It has such a negative vibe, especially when you're fighting tooth & nail under outnumbered conditions on the flank there.
Other people have brought it up in platoons too, that they find it highly annoying.
My vote categorically would be for that corner either to be muted or some other sound to be rotated in.

Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever.
Nobody mention the heavy breathing at temple left spawn. Still creeps me out every time.

When you spawn with temple to your left. If your approach is left of the building with the pile of logs just as you pass them you will hear a pair of deep breaths like last breaths before you die. Lol

Can't tell if I find it racist or not these sounds. Also who the heck is going to be worshiping while there is a tank battle field going on .....

The first time I heard the eagle was at 1:30 AM with my headphones at 100%. I threw my ipad across the room when that happened.

I always though those are track sounds. Basically, you can hear tanks before they are spotted. If the other team goes low into the buildings, you will not hear those sounds.

That screech you hear in Goldville is a red tailed hawk, not an eagle.
Here, listen for yourself.
http://www.npr.org/t...oryId=156187375
Anytime you watch a movie scene set in the desert and you hear a screech of a raptor, it's a red tailed hawk. If they had dubbed in a real eagle screech, you would think someone was strangling asthmatic baby ducklings.

It is near the mosque building - in that part of the world they broadcast the call to prayer morning and evening. They nailed the sound as well, it's just what it sounds like in real life in the middle east played from tinny sounding loudspeakers. Those calls to prayer are something that is played no matter what and may be automated. It is very well done atmosphere I think and fitting for the terrain. I like it and I hope they keep it. I like all these sounds when I am setting up my sidescrape and laying a trap for those nasty reds. In those brief moments of quiet waiting before the frantic action it is good to hear those sounds.
