Demonstrably false statement.
Like them or not, Daft Punk are very, very talented. They've been nominated for almost 10 Grammys and won 2, IIRC. They're massive for a reason.

Saying, "I don't enjoy this genre" is a perfectly acceptable and mature statement.

Saying, "This band sucks because I'm narrow-minded" makes you look like a joke.

No way! These days most game music can be found somewhere on the internet, often just on YouTube. There are many gamers out there who appreciate the music and have gone back to record or extract songs from their favorite games.

you are welcome!
thanks for all the info!

i love that more and more devs drop by here to say hello and tell us something about their great work! whenever you see one of the silent/unknown devs losing motivation, encourage him to drop a line here and tell us a little about what he does! as you certainly have noticed, nice feedback is guaranteed !

and i guess reading first hand, how passionate we are about your work, is a motivation boost

hmm, screw it, don´t wait until you see low motivation, tell it to all the silent devs

we like to give feedback on literaly everything

Fantastic!

Looks like the team has really stayed true to the original formula and are looking to make it even better! Personally, the references seem great and spot on about how I personally view each faction in a nutshell. It has made me even more excited and now I really can't wait to hear the music!

Seriously.

NEED MUSIC NOOOW!

Greetings Rodney and once again I love the developer presence on PSU.

I think I have never ever seen that much developers on a fan community site.

I also love the sounds we have gotten to hear in the alpha videos that has been released so far, especially the sounds of the aircraft they are extremly awesome.

I would love to hear more about the amount of voice acting that will be in the game...

A real variety of voice types and emotes would be really awesome!

I leave for the weekend and come back to awesome answers. Looking forward to hearing that you guys put into the game.

Can we get the NC to have some ABBA play? I want them as distracted as possible.

Charlie Bisharat on the electronic violin? Oh god please!

Can we please have some original music in the trailers? SOE just seems to want to put bought over used music in all of their game trailers.

Speaking of trailers, can SOE hire someone good to make them because I haven't seen a good one from you guys since That EQ2 DoF E3 (was it) trailer/demo that Scott Hartsman did the voice over to.

Yeah they're really not great to be honest. Put the best SOE trailer beside any trailer from CCP, they're in a whole other league over there.
