Title: Music While You Play AH2?
Post by: WyldWing on June 22, 2008, 12:42:37 PM

          As a big WWII history and movies fan,while in the game,I like to set the mood for it.
  The music I play is from the pages of,victoryatseaonline.com (http://victoryatseaonline.com)There they also have
 a war-movies page where I've downloaded many of them into my windows media.
     With these great war themes,I feel like I'm in my own movie. Do you play background music?
 Whats your war-music?

I'm into a lot of the classical stuff..  Walkürenritt (Ride of the Valkyries) is always pretty good..  Plus I've got a buttload of WWII German moral
songs..  I do this in the MA when I go on missions with lots of other planes..  Yeah, kinda cheesy, but hey!! 

Other than that, most of the stuff I listen to not many have heard of.  I'm totally anti-corporate/mainstream music..  Bands like Breaking Benjamin or Godsmack and just about all the stuff in that category of "new" metal are pretty boring to me and I want to shoot myself in the face when I hear it palying..  If anyone's ever hear of Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Sleep, High On Fire, Acid King, Sixty Watt Shaman, Electric Frankenstein...Stuff like that..  It's like real low-end bottom heavy stoner rock..  Lots of riffing..  Kind of reminds you of old Sabbath a little..
Anyhow, yeah, nothing beats listen to the song Green Machine by Kyuss and buzzin' around in a Jug at 15k obliterating any unsuspecting poor soul with 8 50's at 400 yards or less.. 

I notice I fly better to music..  When I tune off of squad vox and listen to tunes, I just kind of go with the flow..  I should probably do it more often..

To add a bit of excitement, I download live Air Traffic Control feeds and play those in the background; gives the gameplay an extra sense of depth.

A Favor House Atlantic by Coheed and Cambria is a great song for dogfights large and small.

Play music constantly, usually a mix of Disturbed,Wolf Mother,Mastodon or ManOWar. Stuff that makes you dive head on into hordes.

i usually play music according to the situation.

massive buff raid: Ride of the Valkyries (need epic music for watching those bombs drop)
furball: Enter Sandman (nothing like banging your head when you dive into a furball)
1v1 duel: Ace Combat Zero final boss Theme song (need epic music for fighting mano a mano)

First time I saw/heard WolfMother and Mastodon I thought it was another Spinal Tap thing someone did.  For my money, if I am going to listen to bands that can't be taken seriously, I want the band in on the joke, too.  :aok

Horribly epic...

I play my music in my room down the hall. I can hear it when I use my headphones (must be playing it too loud). I mainly listen to Skillet when I fly.

 I have made a mixed CD of stuff good for furballing and use other stuff for buff raids , I too got my music from back sources and am not real commercial . there is a huge amount of good hard riffin rock that can make a guy fly like his behinds on fire . Play it off my stero player but no so loud as I can't hear everyone talk on vox :devil :devil :devil

Rammstein

Dream Theater

Joe Satriani

Anything not mainstream.  Owning a DJ business kinda kills commercial music for me.

Venom,

Hell yes, 'Burried Alive'. 

Summon the dead, Baphomet's call!  :rock

Cool solo, too.

I couldn't listen to music while I played Aces High. I've spent time getting my own collection of the excellent soundpacks (kudos to the guys who spend so much time doing them) available set up to my liking, so anything that takes away from that and the added 'realism' they bring isn't a good thing.

If I was going to listen to anything though, it would have to be thrashy/rocky Black metal, Like Bathory, Darkthrone, Craft, Deathspell Omega (pre Kenose, as incredible as Kenose is, it's not the right music for the game) and maybe a bit of Behemoth and Marduk (Panzer Division Marduk is apt) thrown in for good measure.

Nothing that you'd take too seriously.

When I do listen to music it's normally Iron Maiden, or some Black Sabbath. (big fan of British metal)

i have a file called "flight mix" i made especially for flying in AH.  It's a compilation of a lot of rock songs.  It ranges from Disturbed and KoRn to 80s hair bands.

Yea, i think there should be a second vox channel..... or like that, one that plays the music they did back then, so we dont slow our PC's down to effect our gameplay :rock
