1 I want to begin by posting a game that I found extremely annoying in order to demonstrate why I think this needs discussing. http://zero-k. info/Battles/Detail/28019 I'd recommend watching this at high speed as even then you should get my point. Besides the balance consideration of why everyone was spamming the same unit, I realized that asthetically sea isn't particularly fun. 1 I want to begin by posting a game that I found extremely annoying in order to demonstrate why I think this needs discussing. http://zero-k. info/Battles/Detail/280190 I'd recommend watching this at high speed as even then you should get my point.

3 Almost every sea weapon used for underwater combat makes a blubblubblub sound which gets extremely annoying. Furthermore almost every weapon these conflicts is either a torpedo, or a depth charge (which is functionally the same as a torpedo). Regardless of current balance, sea weapons are pretty boring, think if land games were about 5 different plasma cannon units plinking at each other all day. 3 Almost every sea weapon used for underwater combat makes a blubblubblub sound which gets extremely annoying.

5 Now that I've explained the problem I think it's time to get to the point, I want everyone to post cool ideas of things to change the aesthetic of sea. This is not a balance thread, ideas here cannot change the role of ships significantly, instead this thread is to change how ships sound/look. Yes, this should be sort of neonstormy, but really I think sea needs something of a face-lift. Please help rid us of the never ending blub sounds and torpedo spam. 5 Now that I've explained the problem I think it's time to get to the point, I want everyone to post cool ideas of things to change the aesthetic of sea.

7 Example suggestion:Turn the Hunter torpedos into cluster weapons that break into smaller aoe missiles, same dps and role, but more epic projectile spam. 7 Example suggestion:Turn the Hunter torpedos into cluster weapons that break into smaller aoe missiles, same dps and role, but more epic projectile spam.
