Mute

Today while listening to some music I decided to play a game or 2. Usually when I listen to music the volume on my speakers are somewhat loud. Unfortunately since there is no mute option on the game I had to listen to every single sound there is, and some are really loud like when LW attacks.

My suggestion is that there should be a mute option on the game.

Note: Since many of us do other things while playing, the sound that comes when is your turn to play would stay. This is to prevent people from not noticing is their turn.

Well, I have to say yes and no to this.


Yes, because, I sometimes too have the same problem with listening to music and then when a unit turns and does a move, it makes some loud noise. It messes up the song, and you cannot listen to it properly.

No, because, these sounds that the unit makes, gets your attention back to TAO. This has happened to me a lot before. Sometimes I am on other websites, and before I know it, I surrendered because I didn't continue my turn. So yeah, the sound will get you back on TAO, and can completely focus you back on TAO again.

And, also, if you want to know what unit attacked you while you're on another site, the noise of the LW, or the Knight could identify it.

has been suggested many times before....

if you have, for example, creative soundblaster sound cards, you may change the volume of specific sound sources, and mute out tao's source. if you've got intergrated sound, well, you're just going to have to live with the tao sounds or skip your turns (or plug your speakers into your ipod)

Death guy, not everyone has either vista or the hardware necessary to do that.

Plus, Seed is gone. If anyone has a way to contact him (NOT that v2c@digisonline, it obv doesn't work)... please do so! We need seed ]'=
