Mountebank Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Not only did I love this chuckle, but it made my wife and guildmates grin every time they heard it in our Heroics, FPs, and Operations. I'm very sad to see this gone Furthermore, as others have mentioned, the new sound is completely lost in the chaotic cacophony of combat, which makes healing quite a bit harder (as I get a little tunnel vision on some of the crazier fights).

NefN Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 OMG WHY!!! i love my giggle.. is there a petition to sign to get it back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caesius Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Please bring back the giggle/laugh effect for smugglers. It lets us know when our ability procs. It's funny. Making it audible for just the scoundrel and not the people around them would have been a much better compromise if there are haters who don't like our laugh. Please bring it back. Stop making changes that make the class less fun Bioware! This isn't even a question of game balance. It was totally unnecessary. Bring it back!

Srilania Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 BRING BACK THE GIGGLE! Smuggler giggle was awesome. and the reasoning, "to prevent sound fatigue". *** is sound fatigue? Sounds like something made up. Let the PVP QQers QQ more. give us back our giggle:tran_cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragingdoofus Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Another vote for having the option. The new sounds is WAY too subtle, and nowhere near as unique or distinct as the laugh. I loved that laugh, and was fairly dependent on it to know when my stacks were gaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degarmo Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I was willing to give it a go, even though I love the laugh, but I honestly have a tough time hearing the new proc sound, which I rely on early in the healing process of a big pull to get my energy regen going. Sound fatigue - are you really going to just make things up, put a governmental-spin-sounding phrase around it and then use it as a real reason? Come on, guys. Everyone knows the best way is the option to turn it on and off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoodie_gypsy Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I'm pretty upset they took it out. I'm just adding my voice to the rest in hopes they'll put it back in. I want my giggle back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogety Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I submitted an in-game ticket and received a response back, typical sort of non-response, but they did indcate that I should make a suggestion in the suggestion area of the forum. I have done so, see below link for the thread: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=411041 If anyone wishes to add their input to that post perhaps it will get some visibility combined with the various other threads that have already been made throughout the rest of the forum. In reading the various threads, the majority of people are very unhappy about this change. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnoams Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 nice, now the developers are systematically removing all the fun from the game. I suppose it makes sense though, most of their subs are imp pvpers so they will just keep catering to their complaints. So far everything about this patch has been a serious disappointment. All the options that we actually wanted like alternate specs and cross server pvp weren't implemented, and the things that were are either inconsequential or made things worse (like pvp). But I digress, this thread is about giggling, and I miss it sorely. If they don't bring back it back, then I think this might be the straw that breaks the camels back for me.

ilyena_ Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I already posted in the Agent thread about this, but since I also have a Scoundrel, I'm registering my complaint here as well. The UI for procs is sorely lacking in my opinion and taking away one of the distinctive cues makes no sense to me. I would have rather seen/heard them make it audible only to the agent/smuggler who proc'd it if aural confusion was happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillihP Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 My scoundrel has taken every slap in the face from the BW team and found a way to adjust.

Crezelle Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 my agent feels your pain... nothing has brought even a smile to her face since 1.2 okay..,.maybe seeing vector dance cause it's ooc, but yeah..no bomb..no giggle... one sad chiss her smuggler daughter dosen't even know what shes missing now=[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountebank Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 At the very least it'd be great if we could have an option to turn on the chuckle or turn it off. If other smugglers or others around us don't want to hear the chortle, they could merely disable the setting or set it to the peculiar 'bwink' noise we have now.
