The new noises during base/tower attaks - super annoying.

In various tower attacks today all of the sudden you would be slammed with the old audio from an Amp Station capture. And it wasnt after you did a cap - it was during the battle.

Its really loud makes no sense and is generally unpleasant.

My guess is a programmer misplaced an audio pointer for console hacks so everyone hears OMG BASE CAPPING every time an infiltrator turns a console.

Not just that, but every time a console changes from one side to the other for any reason, it goes all casino jackpot on us.

Infiltrator hacked your terminal... BWOOOOOSH!

I get out my rocket launcher and destroy the offending terminal... BWOOOOOSH!

Thank God we have a test server, if some of these bugs made it to the live servers it would be ridiculous.

More annoying than the music, I find are the balls of light that appear all over the place... and the excruciatingly slow cap times?

Noticed it as well. Maybe...maybe it's the VS summoning their Alien Masters back into this world...

All those. At once. Guess what we had at Crux Headquarters. I was TR fighting NC, and they kept hacking our Terminals.

I was on Point A for ages because of the cap times, couldn't hear for shit because of the noise and almost got gunned down by my allies several times because they thought I was NC. Because of that Darn blue light.

SOE PLEASE.

I think its kind of a fun bug. Something to talk about a year down the line.

You better be gone when they get here...or else...

Or else!

Blue balls everywhere!!! Some dev's idea of a belated april fools joke?

Not only are there audio and visual oddities, but terminals do not necessarily display the correct faction when you take over a control point or after a hack. Rashnu had zero control points to take over this morning. Both outlying and internal control points.
