EPTThe only Unit-Sound for Zerg that really stands out.... Is the Overlord crapping creep (and maybe the Queen injecting Larva)... Which for some weird reason make more noise than any other thing any Zerg unit does...

Blizz needs to get it right, make the sounds that truly matter to the player louder, and tone down the sounds that are less of a critical event. For example, if 12 zealots are in my base slashing at my hatchery, i better hear it like knives and forks clattering against plates (like in SC1) | ||

Actually, i wrote this topic to address primarily the unit voices, not sound in general. Sound effects have been discussed at length in many previous threads. | ||

After hearing them, there really is a distinctly sharp pitch in all the voices of the original game that's absent in SC2. Pretty intriguing though I'm not sure how to fix this problem. Maybe just put the old voices into the new game? There's some low-res quality about it but I'm sure they can be remastered. | ||

Ghost- Badass, but rather young. Mengsk must be filtering his ghost program again. Protoss- Indeed they sound too human. A example you guys might not like, but can agree with, is like the Elites from Halo. Once you understood them, (2 onwards) they stopped being as cool. Zerg- Nice vids, shuffle up the sounds, and see if any Starcraft fan can identify them XD. | ||

In SC2, only the Marauder has the SC1 rudeness to it. Pretty much everything else sounds toned down. I am almost offended by how wimpy the Zerglings sound - although roaches and hydras actually aren't bad. Also, the SC2 attack sounds are REALLY quiet. Whether it's zealots, tanks, mutalisks, or carriers, in SC1 you could wear a blindfold and still tell pretty much how a battle is going. SC2 you really can't. This could be pretty easily changed, just by making attack sounds a lot louder compared to ambient stuff like harvesting and background music. | ||

Battlecruiser Thor Immortal The rest are either OK or terrible. I hate how all the Zerg units all sound like the same thing but at a different pitch, they've lost any resemblance of character they once had in Starcraft. | ||

the vulture had a less of a bang to in its attack but it illustrated its fast harrasing role, while the spider mine gave you that high tech terror feel. but i always felt that the siege tank voice and sounds was the epitome of the whole theme of starcraft unit voices. there was nothing better than "DELIGHTED TO SIR!!!" "READY TO ROLL OUT!!" and yes i had to type that in caps. then you had the archon, which was also very intimidating. he had much shorter and more meaningful lines than the monologues of like 6+ words we hear from the protoss voices in sc2. POWER OVERWHELMING. WE BURRRRRRN. | ||
