I loved playing CoX, but there were certain sounds that were very annoying when repeated a lot.
We had a thread on the CoX Forums where we could, being very careful about how/what you said, talk about what files were what sound. Then, you could, using specifically added folders and files, change those sounds to be something else, or nothing at all.
Example: The uber-annoying sound (ba-gonk?) you got when you clicked a power that was recharging. I changed that to be no sound at all. I still got the on-screen floaty text, but lost the audio for it.
There were a few others I silenced as well, mostly things that happened repeatedly/frequently (like that recharging message).
Obviously, it is intended that we get to modify the look and feel of powers by aesthetically decoupling powers and animations. Please tell me that something is going to be done for sounds as well.
I haven't read anything that discusses this. Please point me at it if I have missed it.
It was mentioned in this post once: http://cityoftitans.com/comment/77134#comment-77134
Of course we hope that all of our sounds will be listenable and non-lame....

Yup, that is exactly the thread I needed to have found and could have not made this one. Thanks!
No doubt. However, you can only please some of the people all of the time, not all of them. Personal preferences and all that jazz.
That thread looks to have already covered what I wanted to express.
