Insect Noise!

Spiders seem to a popular “insect” (I know, I know) on the boards when folks are lobbying for Alliance members. Here is an interesting video I’ve found about spiders


Spider On Drugs. Make Sure You Watch The Entire Video.

In other news, Termite Grab will make sounds for next release! We’re also thinking about Audio Taunts. I’m a little hesitant as I’m worried about messing up the pastoral sound scape I’ve created, and I’m worried about less mature gamers (you know who you are :P ) spamming the audio taunts and frustrating other players. I meant, when you have voice communication, is there really a need for audio taunts?

That, and if they sound lame…they’ll sound really lame. And without professional voice talent ($$$) there’s a good chance they’ll sound lame. :(

What do you think about Audio Taunts for II?

    If you ever played Dystopia recently you’ll remember they used to have some /obnoxious/ audio taunts. If you do have audio taunts remember that they /will/ be spammed frequently, especially at game end. So instead of having the enemy queen being killed by heavy soldiers, you’ll end up with the enemy queen being killed by heavy soldiers as high-pitched tiny voices scream…

    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
    “Godzilla makes waffles compared to you!”
    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
    “Your queen’s so fat, when she sits around the hive, she sits AROUND the hive!”
