Worst music in the game...

That repeating and escalating "de-de-de-DEEEE" drives me crazy. Makes me feel like I should drop and roll.

Considering the BEST music in the game (snake gulch background tune) is just over the hill, it's torturous.

It's the little irradiated goo in your ears trying to tell you to drink the water. the water is good for you, it deadens the sound of the music.

yesssss, you know you want to drink of the water...

[Archived Post]

Whatever that music is that is playing during character creation. I know it's also in the game somewhere but I can't remember where. Makes me what to gnash my teeth! :mad:

meh, it's game music. i always mute it.

I'd have to disagree. The worst music is:

WE HAVE TO SHUT DOWN ALL THESE BEACONS.

CO has really horrible background music in general compared to CoX. I wish they kept the same guys who scored that game.

I love atomic wasteland music and almost everything else. My least favorite is Force Station Steelhead. I wince every time i go near that place.

The soundtrack to the West side MC reminds me of Assault on Precinct 13 (1976). Except it's done with butt-rock instead of synthesizers.

CO has background music? O.O

i kid. Most of the music is repetative or low-key enough that i don't notice it... when i do notice it, as in Snake Gulch, i like it. Overall, the score hits and goes well with whatever theme it's supposed to be fitting.

Well you have to admit that the part were the mesage says "Connection to the login server timed out" sounds really cool.

[Archived Post]

really? people dont like the music?

I thought it was way better than CoX..

of course any music that gets repetative can get annoying..

[Archived Post]

I dig most of the music in this game. It fits thematically, is appropriate to location, and is, sometimes, actually well scored. It might not be John Williams, Danny Elfman, James Howard, or James Horner, but its still good game music.

That works for me!

THIS!

I have to agree, I've even gone so far as to download the character creator music from COH and play that instead of the CO music. I've made many an epic hero to that theme, but the CO character creator music just doesn't do it for me. At all.
For the record I DL'd the COV character creator music too just in case :-)

[Archived Post]

Hmm I like most of the music in this game except for a few tracks, lets see...

The boss music that plays with Kigatilik is really overused and not that great. Its a combat-ized version of Burning Sands music and terribly generic.

Atomic Wasteland and Steelhead are indeed irritating.

Well's Pass / Powerhouse, maybe I've heard this track one too many times but I definately think its annoying to listen to. It also has zero place in being Well's Pass' music.


I could give a big list on tracks that I think are great, but that's not the point of this thread now is it? ;)

I disagree in CoV the background music was horrible

I like most of the music in the game and don't have any quirks with it. I mean your not forced to listen to it and you can mute it.

In most cases, mainly when fighting Viper Agents, the music don't last long enough and I wish there was a way to loop it. It gets me pumped when I get there and it ends too soon especially in lairs, I need music while im fighting long battles.

Besides music is suppose to be campy, im sure if they wanted to make music like it was Bat Man or Star Wars they wouldn't have fit the theme well.

But I think if anything is annoying is the Power House music, I spend most of my time in there when leveling a character and it's just annoying as hell and it is looooooong.

Yeah, the one in Canada when you're flying around and it's like bum ba-da bum BUM, bum ba-da bum BUM, bum ba-da bum BUM, bum ba-da bum BUM, et all.

The song that plays near the Viper base where the Mechanist is? Yeah, that one is... pretty cringe worthy. I realize it is a super hero MMO, but that doesn't mean it has to have awfully cheesy music and voice acting.

I mean what, was the sound score done entirely in studio, with a music synthesizing program or something?

Whether you love or hate WOW, the music track for WoTLK was pretty fitting. You could stick the Grizzly Hill or Storm peaks music in Canada and it wouldn't sound remotely out of place.

If i'm reading you correctly, that's the Force Station Steelhead theme and i agree. That is the worst music in the game for me.

There's music in the game? All I ever hear are random sound effects.

You mean the "Royalty free generic music" guys?

Maybe they'll let us buy better music from the C-store~

IMO the worst music in the game is the stuff that plays everywhere in Millennium City. I dunno what it is about it, but it gives me these TERRIBLE flashbacks of playing Sim City 2000 on Win98 with a PC that could barely handle web browsing. Not only that, but a monitor that randomly had the entire screen turn purple until it was turned off and back on.

LMFAO and here i was thinking i was the only one getting a gratting headache everytime I heard that.
It makes my brain hurt just to hear him say it and then he has to say it soooo loudly. We have to shutdown AAAAAAAALL those beacons. They broadcast a signal that drive the Qualarr crazy......... Man just the thought of it makes me wanna run to wallgreens for the biggest bottle of Ibuprofin.

I've ALWAYS appreciated when games include the ability to replace the default BGM with your own.

Not to beat a dead horse...but...Ragnarok Online/Ultima Online

SACRILEGE.

A lot of games have astoundlingly great music. Think of franchises like Mega Man, Final Fantasy, Mario, Zelda, Chrono, etc.

However, CO is not one of those games.

Good:

Snake Gulch
Powerhouse

Mediocre:

Everything else

Terrible:

Steelhead (OH GOD IT IS HORRIBLE)
Atomic
Project Awakening
The title screen and costime creator, mostly because it is a medley that includes some of the above
