Whatcha Listening to

Tidu! — GMT

Why do youse listen to while playing UT? Lately I've been listening to Muse, I recently found them and instantly fell in love :-P I think there was already a thread like this a year ago or so, but oh well.

Perhaps I'm a total noob, but how do you use the embedded music player in UT2K4?

Re:Whatcha Listening to

BotFodder — GMT

F11 - mind you that the random and repeat functions don't work all that well. IIRC you click on the folder icon, and then "Add" and browse to where your MP3s or OGGs are.

Actually, I usually listen to the TV. I'm weird like that I guess ;)

In UT, I have cranked almost everything down so that I can hear my surroundings. I started this back in the early days of UT99, when I would have to hear somebody sneaking up on me from behind before they planted a round or two from the pea-shooter right between my ears. I did that to them too often for any of us to count, and they felt it was only fair to try to return the favor, but too often they would find I would either shoot a goo blob at the ground while jumping over it, jump and turn to hit them with the flak or ripper, or some other nasty. I even would get them with the pea shooter or sniper in a jump and turn. >:) But that was games like DM, TDM, or LMS, and things like sniping and ambushes were the way... can't do that on DC. But hearing the bugs come up on me from behind has saved my bacon quite a few times, particulary when they come around a corner right behind me. As for what I am listening to most right now... Lots of Blackmore's Night and Cascada (just got that for a late bday present, ripped it, and wearing the bits off the harddrive now), with a goodly mix of The Moody Blues, Nena, The Vapors, and The Hollies thrown in. Need to get some more tunes like from Emma Bunton (Free Me), Paris Hilton (Stars are Blind), DJ Alice, Miss Kittin, DJ Tiesto and a few others which I have been listening on Yahoo!

My favorite is probably Meshuggah (including Fredrik Thordendale's side project), you just cant beat polyrythmic metal ;)

5 bars of 23/16 + 1 bar of 13/16, adding up to 128/16 (or simply 4/4)

Also anything else metal (leaning towards the "really heavy stuff" though)

Spike — GMT

I turn all music down - but if I ever do fire up anything, it's some type of techno (for playing UT or other FPS's)

RadicalROM — GMT

I do not listen to anything, accept the monsters. I find that most of the time you can hear them before you see them. Even if the music was low volume, I'm to old to multitask, so I guess I am stuck with just listening to the monsters grunt.

^:)^ Wow, you folks are so ecclectic. I usualy listen to a mix of stuff like, Train, Modest Mouse, Black Crowes, i listen mostly to an Xm Satellite radio channel called "Ethel" i think of it as Alternative, but you guys make it seem like main stream pop. :-?

Re:Whatcha Listening to

Spike — GMT

wait! wait! the question was what we listened to while playing UT - not what all do we like... hmm... I was a DJ in my youth besides wanting to be a sound engineer *and* music was my hobby for the longest time so I can honestly say that it would be easier for me to list what I don't listen to much: rap, country, deathmetal (although if screaming is kept to a minimum...) Good music is good music to me - so, from alternative to classical to "world", I have just about everything in my iTunes (and wishing I could access the international stores because I grew up being able to buy european/asian music and I miss it)

I generally don't listen to music when I'm playing, I like to here the monsters or if someone is saying something in game, but if I do listen to anything its usually 20 on 20 on XM radio.

I don't really listen to music while I play UT. I've known about the integrated music player but never bothered to fiddle with it.

Me too! I used to browse other countries and drool over their music. I have really weird musical tastes. I mean really weird. Of the "normal" stuff that I like, my favorites are the Goo Goo Dolls, Switchfoot, Five for Fighting, and Lifehouse, but I'll listen to just about anything except heavy metal (too much screaming, not enough singing), some country (i'm sorry your dog died and your girlfriend left you, but it's time to get over it!), and some rap (don't need to know about your "relations" with your girlfriend. kthxbye).

These days it seems that if you're not a fanboi/fangrrl of the latest cookie-cutter boy band or female sell-out, your musical tastes are "weird." The European market's where the real music's at (IMHO). Unlike the States, they actually produce variety worth consuming. Shame it's not easier to import. As for myself, when I'm not distinctly listening for a Shield Gun Nali to run up behind me, I'm usually streaming some dance/techno from di.fm Then I groove in my seat like only a white boy, sans rhythm, can. :)
