Adding audio to strokeplay MP

  Hi all,

  Would it be nice to have more audio to MP strokeplay or tournament?

  Like in Closest to the hole there is a hartbeat if your in 10ft of the hole.

  For example: like in real golf play or tournament the spectators give applause

  if the is a nice shot. within 10ft of the hole "applause" and a hartbeat followed with applause within 5ft.

  So the experience is more to the real stuff.

  Ok there must be an option in options for those who like to turn it off.

  I am curouse if there are more players who like this idea.

   

  grtz,

  René (slasher74NL)

  hi

  it has been suggested before but, i am not really for it.

  1. heartbeat works for blitz since it's a competition against each other and no putting... it wouldnt work for other modes

  2. applause and such is just going to be a distraction since you actually want it to be quiet when you hit.

  we used to have replays for shots inside 5ft but they quickly became old. even at 2ft, we still get complaints:)

  Hi thx for the replies,

   

  About the applause, after a ball is hit and for that shot it's a nice one

  at that moment to hear a applause.

   

  grtz,

  why should i care if you like it or not.   you may be a mod,   but you're not the masses,nor do you have to write the code.

  a little feedback from the game would be a welcome addition to many.

  You are right, of course. I am not the only one reading forums, most of us do and take ideas without me bringing it up.

  I just summarized you what the thinking has been on the forums over the last few years.

  This is an easy one, just like the flag animation. Add the applause and background sound like wind, birds, tec and at the same time give users the ability to turn it off..Simple

  I've never played such a quiet golf game , and I have played them all dating back to well before The Golden Bear golf on nintendo. Birds chirping, frogs gulpin, passing airplanes, crowd noise/applause, all part of any golf game I have ever played. In links we used to be able to load custom wav files and bind them to keys to play whenever we wanted. If WGT is supposed to be realistic then why the deafening silence during our rounds?  I have seen way more people ask for ambient sounds than not. I been lurking here for a while now.

  Was that a hoot, or what? You could grab a wav file from any movie and use it in the chat. Talk about NOONANS!!   LOL

  i'm not for it either.

  it would cheapen the game imho.

  imagine if every time you hit an approach 2 yrds to pin or sunk a 12 ft putt the crowd started yelling or applauding. it would become an annoyance in no time.
