Main menu music

[Scared_420]

I would just like to say that I'm not a fan of the new intro music in PR. It doesn't get me pumped, it's slow and I feel it doesn't fit in very well. It takes a few minutes to get going good but by that time you are already loading a map or it restarts cause you are refreshing a server. Can you make it so it doesn't restart whenever you refresh a server, the old intro got me pumped as soon as it started playing, this new one is good don't get me wrong but I think it just doesn't fit in well as the main menu music.

Ah dammit guys... 0.9 was a failure...

[Punkbuster]

Ah dammit guys... 0.9 was a failure...

No it wasn't... only the new RP system!

[AfterDune]

The new music is the best PR has ever known if you ask me...

Careful, thats a suggestion however I wholeheartedly agree. The old music for Russian maps made me so pumped that I wanted to get in there and lead a squad and kill Russians/Rebels straight away, but now its just dreary and dull.

Its a shame that whoever made it put so much work in, but its simply not really that good.

New RP system is great.

Much more focus these days on building and defending firebases.

Rally points are great when you're in the middle of no where, 4 of your squad, including your medic have been totally killed, and it's just you and one last guy retreating for your life to put down that rally point to give your squad 'one more chance'.

If you use the rally point as that, it's great. Gives you one chance to recover from almost sheer destruction.

Of course it sucks if you're using it to spawn in the odd person when newcomers join your squad half-way through a game =P

Actually I think it's much better than the old music.
PR had this unusual techno vibe thing going on in the old music, and I've never heard that type in another game. It didn't really have an interesting beat.

The new music is slow, yes, and it sounds sort of improvised, but it has some nice laywers to it; I dunno, it just sounds more natural.
The piano adds an interesting and sophisticated quality to it. There are very few videogames that have a piano overture as part of their music.

I always listen to my own music collection while I'm not spawned into game. Open <your_favourite_media_player_here> before staring PR and use keyboard's media keys to control music playback.

[maarit]

yeah,new music is very good but what i dont like is that electric guitar distorted sound.
its just dont fit that good if i listen 0.8 versions distorted guitar

[Elektro]

Exactly what intro songs are you referring to? There are over ten, and you can impossibly hate them all.

[Feriluce]

I gotta agree to an extent. Dont get me wrong, the music is great. But I just think some of it doesnt really fit properly.

[Scared_420]

The song I am talking about is the one that plays when you sign in. Very slow, dull and not very war like. I agree the piano is cool but cmon man this game is about teamwork and blasting the enemy to pieces not going to a bar to dance and drink. Some of the new map songs are good but I must admit I liked a lot of the older ones better.

You guys are nuts! The new .9 music is great! All of it!

I think the PR music does an excellent job defining the genre. Especially since they did not just copy the style of music from some other FPS. The new .9 score is not only intense and heartpounding, but sophisticated and unique.

It's a huge step forward from the old stuff. You cannot possibly say any of the new music is WORSE than what it used to be.

[victor_phx]

What?!?!?! It's some of the best music ever! Plus, the soundtrack is unique in its entirety. It really is a shock to see a comment like this. Don't get me wrong, everyone's entitled to have an opinion; it's just I didn't expect people could possibly feel unsatisfied about it in some way.

[Clock]

I've had music muted for so long, I might have it give it a listen.

[Adriaan]

I disagree, i like the new music alot, especially the main menu music. Tastes differ though

[sniperrocks]

Everyone has different tastes in music
Personally, I love the new music, but i can understand why it doesn't get you pumped up

of course, you could just listen to your own music on your iPod or something to get that first adrenaline before gaming
