Great music.

Vanu was never going to be the underdog

Yes, these play as background music..you can adjust the volume of it too so you an hear more in game.(assuming it has the same PS1 adjustments :P )

The music is awesome!

Personally, I have to admit, the TR sound best so far. Really like their soundtrack; well done and fitting.

And that`s great. After all, they are the get-the-state-off-my-lawn shotgun faction.

Reminded me a bit of the Firefly style, but with more Rock in it. Since I'm somewhat of a Hardrock and Bluegrass fan, I will probably be very pleased once real guitar (or even banjo?) gets in.


But yeah, the rocky guitar themes are actually a great non-cheesy way to make NC sound the most "human" faction when compared to the state-centric TR and the technocratic VS. Really great.

Personally I think they should just pay Hans Zimmer to create the OST. I usually loop this in any game when I'm kicking ass, especially when I play Planetside. It really exemplifies the ideology of the TR for me while I play.

I gave a quick peek despite myself. I have to echo some of the comments on the NC combat music; I hope the final version is a bit better able to get me in a combat mood. I think one of the posters on page 3 or 4 was on the right track when he pegged it as lacking some rhythm guitar to underpin the kind of free-roaming guitar soloing and give a little more consistently uptempo pace to the combat music. I also hope the reliance on the snare rolls gets toned down; the style of the drum work made it feel a little cluttered overall.

If the combat and travel music drifted a little bit towards, say, Social Distortion's Road Zombie, I'd be quite thrilled. I love the *character* of the instrument mix they've chosen, though, and I love how it feels like the sort of thing that a bunch of the guys would throw together after work in their barracks, vs. the very Wagnerian orchestral propagandist military orchestra feel that the TR yields.

Can't find TR or NC tracks. Can anyone help?

Yeah, you should check the channels of people who posted em up.

PwnageForce2 has em all up it seems, listening to it now.

Deus Ex : HR Music + Tron Music = Vanu Music.

You make that sound like a bad thing....

Just sounds like mostly classic hard rock (which is cool) to me. Not really anything I'd call "hillbilly". Although, I would like to hear some slide blues in their non-combat music...

EDIT: I like the TR one as well. Currently my least favorite is the VS one. Different strokes, eh?

Thanks for the video.

[Methonius]

Ya, I think the VS tracks are awesome. Going to love listening to those combat tracks while shooting my lancer.

[Nephilimuk]

Interesting I like

I think the NC track needs more banjos though
