I play civ with the sound off

[Alexander's Horse]

Ya, I usually have the TV on. But if the Ayatollah talks to me, I listen. She has been know to throw stuff, lamps, furniture, that sort of thing.

**ROTFLMAO**

Anyway, I don't play with Civ's native music, but do leave the sound effects on most of the time. Sometimes I pop in a CD on my player and play Alice Cooper's "Hey Stoopid!" while waging war on a savage AI enemy .

Sound on, music off.

Unless RealAudio's on; in that case, RealAudio takes over the sound card, and nothing else is permitted to utter a peep...

You people who run other apps like music when playing, please don't do this in multiplayer, unless you want to become real unpopular, real fast

Its not hard to tell who's doing it either.

Is this the cricket thread?


Yo I always turn the music off. Sound stays on though...

[Hasdrubal]

Sound on, native music off, some other music CD on.

[Marquis de Sodaq]

The music is always on - ain't it grand to hear "ode to joy" while your cities rejoice at your brilliance? Or to hear the somber mourning after you crush the last gasp from some pitiful neighbor?

[DarkCloud]

The civ Music is repetitive and some of it is depressing.

[Cavalcadeus]

I never have the sound on when I play Civ, but I have taken my Civ CD with me un the car or a discman to listen to the music.

[finbar]

My missus makes me play with the sound on. So she knows where I am. If she didn't already.

Listen, SG2, I'll have you know I'm my own man, I play Civ whenever and wherever I want to ... oh, hang on a sec, mate ...

"Yes dear? You'd like the house moved three feet to the right?"

Back again, SG2. Now, as I was saying ... I have to shoot through. I might be a little while.

[finbar]

To be perfectly honest, I don't think I could play with the sound off. It just wouldn't be the same. A bit like eating Spotted **** without the raisins.

Seeing as I play it on bcr3's computer and his roommate always plays with the sound on, I don't usually play with the music... It gets a little discordant... I like the sound effects every once in a while... 'course I never play Warcraft or Age of Empires without the sounds, so maybe I'm missing something... hmmm.
