Haekel Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 (I know this has been discussed before, but there is no other way for me to express my dissatisfaction, since there is no Feedback option ingame or in the forum, and the Customer Support closed my attempted feedback ticket with an automated message, as I have come to expect from this game. So, please bear with me.) So, recently I started a Trooper and went Commando (Haw haw, Guttermind. No, the subclass. ). Loved the class, until I hit a certain level. At that level, my Commando became a crazy, murderous lunatic that just could not stop laughing every 5 seconds. This is unacceptable to me. Not even FemShep can remedy this. I am unable to play this character for more than 5 minutes at a time. This is the timespan it takes me to become pissed off at the incessant, annoying laughter. This completely and utterly ruins the character for me, and I have barely played her since. To my utter dismay, the Commando is not the only class with this "feature". The Scoundrel and one of the Bounty Hunter Subclasses has it as well. That makes THREE classes I won't be able to play, because of some rather pointless audio cue. Bioware, if you really value all your customers, like you said in one of your recent posts, PLEASE consider changing this to a less annoying sound, or by giving us the option to turn it off completely. Now, please, everyone tell me I am overreacting. Or voice your support.
maidelken Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Im not saying you are over reacting - all I can say is that I never noticed it despite playing the class to level 50. although now you have mentioned it, its probably going to bug the hell out of me next time I log into that character.
Haekel Posted November 24, 2015 Author Posted November 24, 2015 You're welcome. Ahaha! Ahaha! Ahaha! Ahaha! And so on, ad infinitum...
dlcman Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Are you talking about the little laugh every time you crit?
Haekel Posted November 24, 2015 Author Posted November 24, 2015 No, it's a laugh everytime I use one of three of my main abilities, either starting a fight, or with a cooldown of about 5 seconds. It's when you gain a stack of whatchamacallit, that thing that stacks to 10 that you can use for a special ability on the Trooper. Or whenever you gain a stack of Upper Hand on the Scoundrel.
dlcman Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 So the crit laugh. got it. doubt they are gonna change it.
Raphael_diSanto Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I remember that they took that away on the Smuggler/Agent once, and everyone complained that it was gone because they liked the audio cue..... .. so they put it back quite a while ago.
PulseRazor Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) You are laughing with glee as you stab your opponents to death, whats not to like about this? Waaaait a second, this is a troll post about nerfing all the fun out of the game, isn't it? Well played, friend. Well played. Edited November 24, 2015 by PulseRazor

Just to add insult to injury I'm not saying remove the audio cue entirely, I'm saying change it to something less annoying, or give us an option to turn it off. If you like hearing laughter every 5 steps, power to you. For me, it ruins the game.

Oh that would explain it then. I leveled my trooper with the companions set to god mode - all he ever did was pick up loot and talk to NPCS, I would have only heard it if Elara was the one that made the noise...
nagada Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Play a BH. They (well, the male at least) just give a soft little evil chuckle. It works for them.
MillionsKNives Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 No, we can't talk about the laugh. Don't you dare try to take my laugh away! If you don't like it then go Gunnery, they don't have a laugh. Also, I believe the laugh only comes up when the rail shot (bolt shot? for pubs) procs.
Haekel Posted November 24, 2015 Author Posted November 24, 2015 No, we can't talk about the laugh. Don't you dare try to take my laugh away! So make it an option, then. You can leave the laughter on, I can turn it off and play two of my characters again. Options have never hurt anyone. If you don't like it then go Gunnery, they don't have a laugh. Also, I believe the laugh only comes up when the rail shot (bolt shot? for pubs) procs. Having to play another class or skillset is not really a solution, is it? If a certain class was broken beyond redemption, you wouldn't tell me to just roll another char, would you? You'd want that class to be fixed.

If you like hearing laughter every 5 steps, power to you. For me, it ruins the game. The whole "make it a toggle" came up back then, too. I guess they didn't decide it was important enough. I don't like or dislike it and I'm all for toggles. Options are good.

If a certain class was broken beyond redemption, you wouldn't tell me to just roll another char, would you? You'd want that class to be fixed. It's not broken so let's not be ridiculous. You just don't like a sound it makes. A sound it's made for a long time, if not the entire lifetime of the game. You do realize that gunnery is just another tree for the commando right?
XiamaraSimi Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 this probably has about as much a chance of getting changed as the bug that makes characters and npcs in game wearing trenchcoats get bubble-butt syndrome...
Haekel Posted November 24, 2015 Author Posted November 24, 2015 Nerf... laughter?. Now I feel like the Grinch.
XiamaraSimi Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Now I feel like the Grinch. and I just finally got that dang song out of my head Rude!
horrorfaneightys Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Oh my god. I love that laugh on my scoundrel, whenever he gets upper hand. I didn't realise commandos could get it too. Goes off to roll another one.
branmakmuffin Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 and I just finally got that dang song out of my head Rude! Well, well, it's small world after all.
XiamaraSimi Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Well, well, it's small world after all. -grabs giant stuffed pikachu, starts beating bran with it- Thats just wrong!
branmakmuffin Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 -grabs giant stuffed pikachu, starts beating bran with it- Thats just wrong! If that's wrong, I don't wanna be right.
Rankyn Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 I've hated the giggle ever since it first showed up.
Phyreblade Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Don't take away my smuggler's laugh! No, no way! It's too cute, to dirty kick some sleezeball in the nads while giggling up a storm! Hah!
