Anyone hear when the rest of the DF2010 content is coming out? I want enviroment noises!
This game in 2011 still doesnt have environment sounds?!
It's different to other games, by implementing environmental sounds they're also going to be directional based. In other MMOs you hear the sounds from the environment, In Darkfall you'll hear the sound from the correct direction/location it's coming from meaning it's more than just background noise.

You do know that this is how it works for every game out there right? The most used package at the moment is FMOD and it has been doing directional sounds since ever, the directional noise is dependant however on the hardware you have if you have 2 channels ( left and right speaker ) then there is only so many directional effects they can actually do, at the coding level doing directional sound nowadays if you dont want to do some crazy never done effect is as easy as set an X,Y,Z position for the sound when it plays.
All of the packages use directional sound and this is implemented on pretty much every game out there, even OpenAL a free open source audio library does directional sound, log onto WoW ( 2004 game ) and go to near a waterfall or anything with water sounds and turn your character and pay attention to your speakers because the sound source point changes the software splits the sounds to give you the surround effect ofc this is dependant on what hardware you have a good 7.1 system will benefit much more and create a more realistic effect.
This is nothing new and should have been done at release, even my gimp homebrew game engine I use to test does this since pretty much I started working on it cause its that easy with any package.
The recently stated that they are finished with the environmental sounds part of the expansion and say that it is amazing.
Surround sound . .. I can't wait!!

Mobs in Darkfall aggro from seeing or hearing you, unlike other games, and because of the 3rd/1st person views this is going to feel more immersive than any other MMORPG.
I loved the Elder Scroll Series which is one of the reasons I get into this game so much, even the PVE. Fighting mobs is funner in this game though.

They were making good progress, now im getting impatient. Im sure there working as fast as they can.
