#2: Re: playing music when playing a close combat game Author: Bungarra, Location: Murchison region, West AustraliaPosted: Sun Jun 12, 2011 7:05 am I can see why you do as it soothes the mind at times, maybe cuts the boredom in the dull times.
At one time I used to play with loud background noises but I found it detracted from what was really going on.
I play with headphones now, no music. I want to be on to the sound of that panzerschrek or bazooka straight away.
I've tried without sound at all but after getting pooned & I don't even know which direction it came from I curse myself never again.
Lately I've been playing CC WAR with Digs sound mod, just the right balance I reckon (Good one Digs )
Its a matter of choice but when its serious stuff & your men are on the line.
Headphones & a light sound mod are the go!

well......at least me and chessmaster has this kind of "thing"
the truth is that if i play that knd of music while playing CC......well it gives me like a feeling that i am "inside" the battle.....
i also have this album of the Russian Red Army Choir (Alexandrov) and also the US Army Choir (Pershing's Own), the Essential War Film Themes (album of the soundtracks of war films) and the soundtracks of the games of Medal of Honor.......and yeah......also the German Military Marches

#6: Re: playing music when playing a close combat game Author: chessmaster, Location: Antwerp and GhentPosted: Sun Jun 12, 2011 1:51 pm you can always send me themes & songs friend, medal of honer themes are great, they're all on youtube 2
I don't set the music to loud.. I can still here everything, from sniper attacks to piat's or shreks firing, that's the trick.. don't set it loud ;)
PS: sometimes I set up 'rain & storm' sounds, I get the feeling my troops are fighting in the mud & seeking shelter from the howling wind & rain, kinda interesting you guys should try that 2

#9: Re: playing music when playing a close combat game Author: kweniston, Location: NetherlandsPosted: Tue Jun 14, 2011 4:23 pm I often like to play hits from the era, like the Andrews Sisters, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, Harry James, Sinatra, Crosby etc, mixed with the occasional war march (all nationalities) and some European songs from the era. Also sometimes inspiring German songs like "Bomben Auf England" when I play the German side .
