Where is the beautiful music from X3? Or may be it is a bug?

Post by DarkSideMaster1 »

Hello!

What happened to the beautiful music that was always in X-series

Why in X4 instead of beautiful melodies, I hear some kind of musical horror. 95% of the time is played by some kind of war manor, although the enemy ship was destroyed long ago.

Why did they remove the music that was playing when the ship went to the dock?

What I mean?

Here is examples, as it was in X3

And compare with what is now :(((

Egosoft, hear me, please! Turn back beautiful music :(

Composer's skills must have left with the game designers logic :mrgreen:

That's right.
From myself I’ll clarify that there are some quite good tracks, which sometimes play in space and correspond to the spirit of the game X, the rest are some strange howls and background effects, as if from a horror movie. I paid attention to it at the first streams.
Regarding the problems with switching on and off "combat music", this is a clear mistake, or the effect is not really tuned in the game, I have no complaints about the "combat music".
Yes, and even earlier, Egosoft had a normal practice of copying tracks from previous games of the series, or doing their processing, which is quite acceptable for himself and helps to keep the games in the same style of musical design. Here they are completely pumped up something.

May be this is a bug?

Why does the military music play 98% game time, and after it silence and howl :evil:

I quite like the theme for Bright Promise - when it actually triggers in game.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a bug. Some of the music tracks almost never play in game.

Yes, I hope the more sector-specific unique music will make a comeback

I still remember, after all those years, the instant feeling of bliss upon entering Kingdom's End, with that huge planet looming over the entire sector, the unease and awe in some Terran sectors....

Heard the repair tool sound while in EVA? Nearly pulled my teeth out just to take my mind off it. If there is one thing that proves the game hasn't been thoroughly tested is that sound haha!

This is how it is, guys. The music in this game is supposed to reflect the vast emptiness this part of the X universe is (unlike in Rebirth, where everything was filled with life). It has a sort of lethargic vibe to it, as if you are roaming a battle riddled town, right after a war - everything is empty and filled with fearful vibes.

This is essentially what happens in our current time period too - systems have recently connected to each other, the different factions are trying to build the trust back up with each other, but it can go wrong anytime by anything. But on the surface, it is calm.

It seems that the music is active as long as the wrecks are around. While looting containers a wreck disappears in front of me and immediately the combat music turned off. I also came across to some destroyed ships with no foes near by and the aggro-music started again.

Anyhow, we need an option in the audio settings for combat music loudness, because the background music is in difference to combat music far too quiet.

the combat music and main menu music seems much louder than he rest. Also combat music does not stop after the fighting finished until you leave the area....

In X3 I used my own music, hard tracks for action and for free space, ERA and Van D. for the action + many more. I hope they will make that available in X4 to.
